Additionally, Saga brings the excitement of collectible gaming to the online environment. Rather than pay subscription fees, in Saga you pay as little or as much as you decide. Just as in collectible card or miniatures games, players can buy ‘booster packs’ of random troops and spells, which are traded and customized to create the strategic army of choice for each player.

“Reaction from the community has been very positive, with online troop trading proving extremely popular and addictive”, says Jason Faller, Executive Producer of Saga. “Offers of occasional rare troops like Red Dragons and Mech Giants have been sparking bidding frenzies. We’re very pleased to be able to increase the current number of players to receive additional feedback as we gear up for Beta.”
Saga is set in a persistent world built by Dallan Christensen (Lead Programmer of Starcraft: Brood War). Events in the world of Saga go on 24/7 as your kingdom continues to function when you’re offline- your resources continue collecting, your kingdom continues to defend against enemy assassins and espionage attempts, and guild wars progress as your friends and enemies play.
Saga’s features include:
- Five distinct factions (Light, Machines, Magic, Nature, and War); each with its own races, powers and buildings.
- Over 100 unique troop types, plus thousands of possible armor and weapon upgrades.
- Over 100 buildings
- Spells and special abilities to turn the tide of battles and impact game play
- Quest and campaign across the land to earn experience and win treasure to enhance your kingdom.
- Form guilds of online allies; then join forces in war against other guilds for fortune and glory.
