Magicka “Surprise”
The best-selling Magicka is a satirical fantasy action-adventure game where up to four players embark on a grand adventure to save their world from certain doom using a fully dynamic spell system. Players combine elements to cast spells and wreak havoc and devastation on the minions of darkness. Enough said. So what is the Magicka surprise? We won´t say until GDC. But here is a clue – it is not what you think it is.
Mount & Blade: With Fire & Sword
Mount & Blade: With Fire & Sword features great new additions to the Mount & Blade experience such as fully customizable troops, new siege options, and an exciting new age of weaponry. With Fire & Sword also builds and expands upon the highly regarded combat system from Mount & Blade: Warband by introducing firearms to the battlefield and also opening up exciting new play-styles and options. In addition to the enhanced singleplayer mode, With Fire and Sword also provides a host of original multiplayer content.
Pirates of Black Cove
It’s the 16th century, the golden era of pirates, and this is your chance to become the pirate king and conquer the Caribbean. Start out as a humble pirate and earn fame and notoriety to become a recognized pirate captain by getting promotions within the pirate brotherhood, requiring players to use force, guile, and even deceit. As you are promoted to higher ranks, you will own, manage and develop parts of the stronghold and entice other captains to join your fleet. Combining elements from fast-paced naval combat to light town management, Pirates of Black Cove is a game no pirate fan should miss.
Defenders of Ardania
Defenders of Ardania is a next-generation tower defense game set in the rich fantasy world of Majesty, but with a twist. Besides the addictive core mechanics of placing towers to stop advancing enemy units, Defenders of Ardania also allows players to take on the role of the attackers seeking to conquer the enemy base.
