Tlatoani: Aztec Cities is a captivating city-building game for PC, featuring stunning hand-drawn 2D graphics that pay homage to classic titles in the genre.

Players assume the role of an Aztec ruler, charged with developing a humble settlement into a thriving empire and ultimately becoming Tlatoani.

Success hinges on effectively managing the treasury, services, military, festivals, and religious practices, while also tending to the needs, skills, and daily routines of unique citizens.

Paradox Arc announced a partnership with Perspective Games and Bellwood Studio to publish Tlatoani: Aztec Cities, which is coming to Steam Early Access on October 31, 2024.

Ahead of its early access release, Tlatoani: Aztec Cities will also be featured in Steam Next Fest, beginning October 14th, 2024.

Right now players can explore the game through a free demo on Steam titled Tlatoani: Prologue.

Key Features:

• RISE AND BECOME TLATOANI: Shape the history of the Aztec Civilization, one legendary city at a time. From a single metropolis, to multiple city-states and finally an empire. Conquer the wilderness of Mesoamerica, build a nation and raise as its destined emperor - Tlatoani.
• DEEP AZTEC CITY SIMULATION: Immerse yourself in a detailed simulation of an Aztec city-state and its society. All citizens are individually simulated, with their own skills, needs, duties, faiths, moods and daily routines.
• MAKE YOUR STATE FLOURISH: Gather and produce dozens of goods and resources to provide for your citizens. Develop your city-states’ economy through managing your treasury, services, military, festivals and religion. Every good emperor must first learn to be a good statesman.
• EMBRACE THE SYMMETRY: Honor the Aztec gods! Align, mirror, and balance the surroundings of your temple and government buildings to achieve divine symmetry and earn the favor of the gods — or face their wrath.
• SPREAD YOUR INFLUENCE: Your cities exist within the broad Mesoamerica region. Engage in diplomacy with other city-states, trade, build alliances and conquer your enemies. Experience or change history in an extensive campaign, or play in scenarios and sandbox mode.
• IMMERSIVE AZTEC EXPERIENCE: Engage with Aztec gods, festivals, calendar and traditions like human sacrifice. Learn old Nahuatl vocabulary, and lose yourself in old traditions, music and hand-drawn art bringing Mesoamerican world to life on your screen.
