Over at NeocoreGames, we’re buzzing with excitement to announce the arrival of King Arthur: Legion IX on Xbox Series X|S. Dive into this standalone, turn-based tactical RPG set in the dark fantasy realms established by King Arthur: Knight’s Tale. Whether you’re a veteran strategist or new to the mystic lands of Avalon, there’s something here for you: fresh heroes, an engaging story, and plenty of fierce battles to challenge your tactical skills.
Imagine a new force descending upon Avalon, not your run-of-the-mill brigands, but the long-lost Ninth Legion of Rome, emerging from the depths of Tartarus. Their leader, Gaius Julius Mento, once a respected Roman tribune, now leads a demonic legion, a grim gift from their late emperor, Septimus Sulla. Gaius dreams big—he wants to build the Eternal Rome right in the heart of Avalon, but first, he needs to reunite his scattered legion.
Gaius Julius Mento takes the helm as you dive into the boots of this Roman leader. Navigate through brutal campaigns laden with mythical creatures, fierce Pict tribes, ancient Fomorians, and the clever Sídhe. And if that’s not enough, you might even find yourself challenging the valiant knights of Sir Mordred’s Round Table from King Arthur: Knight’s Tale. These fifteen richly designed missions will test every bit of your strategic acumen as you carve out Gaius’ destiny.
For those who relish strategy mixed with story-driven narratives, King Arthur: Legion IX won’t disappoint. You’ll guide a band of five to six uniquely skilled heroes across Avalon. Combat comes alive with tactics like utilizing cover, setting intricate traps, outflanking foes, and mastering the overwatch system, shaping every encounter to your favor.
In this title, get ready to meet six distinct heroes, each emerging from the abyss with their unique skills and gameplay styles. As you progress, you’ll need to level up these characters, unlock their skill trees, and outfit them with artifacts, ensuring they become legends in their own right.
Conquering Avalon requires more than just valor; it needs a solid base too. Rebuilding Nova Roma is vital, and it’s up to you to manage resources wisely, upgrade buildings, and prepare your heroes for what lies ahead.
As you navigate through Legion IX, your decisions will forge Gaius Julius Mento’s path. Every choice you make shapes not only his fate but the very future of Avalon.
We can’t wait to see you lead the Ninth Legion to battle when it launches on May 6, 2025. Prepare for an epic adventure on the mystical battlefields!
