'Stronghold 2' Goes Gold

by Rainier on April 4, 2005 @ 8:40 a.m. PDT

Stronghold 2 is the third installment of the Stronghold franchise. The original Stronghold was the first and only game to combine a castle SIM with siege-warfare RTS. Stronghold 2 will be the first to bring the franchise to 3D. Players will be able to build and develop numerous types of castles and defenses while watching their peasants go about their every day lives. Players will see medieval life in all its forms from festivals and jousts to drunken wenches serving their lord dinner. Players will also be given more control over the strategic aspect of the game.
2K Games today announced that Stronghold 2 has gone gold. Developed by the UK-based team at Firefly Studios, Stronghold 2 lets gamers get in touch with their inner king as they construct and maintain a castle, defending its walls from invaders and expanding its borders by attacking neighboring territories. Featuring multiple single player campaigns, reenactments of historical sieges, multiplayer modes for up to eight people and a full-featured mission and campaign editor, Stronghold 2 is the ultimate medieval combat and castle life simulation. Stronghold 2 is rated T for teen and will be available for PC on April 19th for a suggested retail price of $39.99.
