'Hegemony Rome: Rise of Caesar' Gets Retail Date

by Rainier on July 15, 2014 @ 1:17 p.m. PDT

Hegemony Rome: Rise of Caesar is the next installment in the RTS franchise, jumping 300 ahead of its predecessor to the campaigns that created the legend of Rome's most famous citizen.

Hegemony Rome brings the past alive like no other real time strategy game, as you manage your armies and manipulate your enemies in a beautifully drawn simulation of 1st century BC warfare. Bring all of Gaul under the rule of the Senate and People of Rome. Or, in the sandbox game, unite the Gallic tribes and end the threat of Roman rule forever.

Hegemony Rome: The Rise of Caesar takes you to the plains and forests of ancient Gaul where the proconsul Julius Caesar will wage a decade long war to subjugate the barbarian hordes that so often threatened the Eternal City and establish a power base for his political ambitions at home. Like Hegemony Gold, Rise of Caesar will immerse you in the history like no other real time strategy game on the market, forcing you to pay close attention to the changing seasons and a rapidly changing military situation.

Hegemony Rome: The Rise of Caesar boxed version will contain the complete campaign chapters and sandbox mode, along with the many tweaks and fixes added to the Steam digital launch version.

Key Features:

  • Direct from the hand of Caesar – Four campaigns follow the conquests of Julius Caesar as he wrote them in Commentarii de Bello Gallico. Bridge the Rhine, invade Britannia and conquer the Gauls in over 100 objectives or choose from over 20 factions in the epic sandbox mode.
  • All new map – Explore over one million square kilometers that are seamlessly zoomable, from the Mediterranean coast to the shores of Britannia.
  • Improved graphics engine – Hegemony Rome supports 10x the terrain detail over previous installments and features a diverse and immersive landscape to explore.
  • Build an empire – The construction system allows players to build forts, walls, and bridges at thousands of sites across the map to cement Roman control over the barbarian kingdoms.
  • Promote your legions – Players can train officers to augment their unit’s skills as well as appoint governors and construct buildings to expand and improve their cities.
  • Starve your enemies – Supply camps and logistics system makes sieges and supply lines more intuitive and more important than ever.

Hegemony Rome: The Rise of Caesar will be $29.99 and can be pre-ordered through Amazon.com today.
