Age of Wonders – Planetfall: Deadline
With “Age of Wonders – Planetfall” provides the Dutch developer Triumph Studios turn-based sci-fi strategy. Now there is a start date!
I’m last year introduced “Overlord” developer Triumph Studios from Holland before the fourth branch of its “Age of Wonders” series. In “Planetfall”, the series turns its back on the medieval fantasy scenario of past parts and relies instead on apocalyptic science fiction. The gameplay, however, remains the old one. In the preview, which you find unterhab this message, made the fresh approach a good figure. Now it is clear when you can try yourself at the turn-based strategy game. As publisher Paradox Interactive recently announced via official press release, “Age of Wonders – Planetfall” will be released on August 6, 2019, for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
Age of Wonders – Planetfall: Three editions
This is still a while, but you can pre-order the game but now. You decide between three different versions. In addition to the standard version Triumph also brings a “Deluxe Edition” and a “Premium Edition” among the people. The latter is the most extensive and with 89,99 US-Dollar (about 79 Euro) also a most expensive variant. This includes the season pass to the game as well as all contents of the Deluxe Edition. In turn, for $ 59.99 (approximately $ 52), it includes two cosmetic upgrades for your character and an additional game scenario called Infested Worlds. In it, you fight for survival on an alien-populated planet.

Preview: Age of Wonders – Planetfall
Studio founder Lennart Sas from the developer Triumph promises a lot, but no blooming landscapes: “We wanted to create a world like in ‘Fallout’, but only on a galactic level.” Whether that works, is an open question, but the makers of “Age of Wonders” and “Overlord” provided a highlight of this year’s PDXCON, the in-house exhibition of Paradox Interactive. “Age of Wonders – Planetfall” is a turn-based sci-fi strategy game with a singleplayer campaign, random maps, and multiplayer mode. And it was the only PDXCON game that had moving pictures.

Paradox: Union broken
That’s it: The “Star Union” has collapsed, the survivors are meeting in the rest of the world. You choose a race like the Vanguards and equip your leader. “Planetfall” should have much more depth than its predecessor – it’s not just about conquering the world. Ruling individual sectors is just as desirable as hard-hitting trade or peaceful diplomacy. Or you develop the ultimate doomsday technology. So there are victory options en masse! In addition to the many tactical options, the game offers a wide selection of races and units with individual weapons. The specialization opportunities in research and the army are also rich. Sniper, guru, foot soldier,
Equally varied is the combat technique: A particularly brave melee brings an additional train. Certain defenses immobilize an opponent without killing him. And a satellite strike with Pyrex missiles will destroy everything – even the surroundings of the handsome future world. That’s big!
DX CON 2018: Highlight Hearts of Iron
More than 1,000 paying visitors and more than 100 journalists came to the PDXCON in-house exhibition from Paradox Interactive in Stockholm in 2018. At the first fan meeting to the paradox title “Hearts of Iron 2” (2002), there were only a bare 24 participants. With such a growth, the outgoing CEO Frederick Wester was, of course, joking: “We buy Sega and Ikea,” he answered when asked about the competition. In view of the developments currently being developed, however, the competition should really be frightened. The paradox is currently working on the three heavyweights “Crusader Kings 2 – Holy Fury”, “Hearts of Iron 4 – Man the Guns” and “Universalis IV – Dharma”. All DLC appear in 2018 and cost 19.99 euros.
Release Date “Age of Wonders – Planetfall”: August 6, 2019, for PC, PS4, Xbox One.
