'Champions of Anteria' - New Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on July 14, 2016 @ 12:19 p.m. PDT

In Champions of Anteria, players immerse themselves in the magical fantasy land of Anteria, where they must strategically wield the powers of five champions to defeat enemies in order to reclaim the kingdom.

Recount the tale of the extravagant champions who embark on a mission to free the enslaved magical fantasy land of Anteria. Battle by battle, the champions must free Anteria’s territories from warring factions, taking on fearsome monsters, lethal bosses and unpredictable environments that challenge players to adjust their combat tactics on the fly.

Players will command five champions, each skilled with using one main elemental power: water, fire, metal, nature or lightning. Players will pick three champions to fight each mission, strategically choosing the powers they will bring in battle to give them the upper hand on the field. Each element is even more powerful when used against the matching weak power, and players must carefully choose which element is the most effective against certain enemies and when they should order to retreat.  The strategic combat system also uses active pause mechanics to help players take their time in battle, allowing them pause to the game at any time in order to adapt their play style and carefully plan their moves.

Freedom of choice is the key and players will choose their own path to victory in each round, where they must pick between freeing one of the surrounding territories and defending one from invasion. Between missions, the home base management system will allow players to train their champions and to craft powerful new gear.

 


Key Features:

  • PLUNGE INTO PULSE-QUICKENING COMBAT Your enemies may grunt unintelligibly, but that doesn’t mean they’re stupid. Defeating these beasts will require thoughtful strategies, clever tactics, and the right combination of three Champions out of the five. Choose well, and the combined strength of your Champions’ elemental powers will carve through your enemies like a hot sword through molten lava. Choose poorly, and you’ll be monster chow. At any time, you can pause the game, switch up your tactics, and rejoin the melee without missing a beat.
  • CONQUER A DAZZLING WORLD From parched deserts to mysterious forests, from frozen snowfields to tropical jungles, the lethally-beautiful world of Anteria invites you to blaze your own path to victory. Choose who, when, and where you’ll attack or defend on a Progression Map. Just remember that your decisions directly affect the world around you, and every action has a consequence.
  • PROVE YOURSELF IN STUNNING BOSS BATTLES They’re big, they’re nasty, and they’re hoping to mince your Champions into bite-sized bits. They’re the bosses of Anteria, and you’ll need sound strategies and lightning-fast combat moves to bring them down. Change your tactics on the fly, avoid the bosses’ lethal traps, and deliver a smackdown worthy of the ages.
  • CREATE THE ULTIMATE WARRIORS After each mission, return to your stronghold to develop your city and craft potions, armor, weapons, and other lethal tools to make your Champions stronger — and make life even more miserable for your enemies.
  • RESCUE A WAR-TORN WORLD As players progress through Anteria, they discover a narrative of a beautiful land brought to its knees by years of constant strife among battling clans. But as your heroes strive to bring peace to this magical realm, they must confront a malevolent wizard and his undead army. Neither of whom are known for being particularly peaceful.
