Plus a sequel to Field Of Glory: Empires
Brutal ancient horseracing gameAncient Arenas: Chariotsand grand strategy sequelField Of Glory: Kingdomsand have been revealed during Slitherine’s Home Of Wargamers stream today. Both games are still a way off from release, but public betas are quickly charging into view for each of them, with one set to arrive in the summer for Ancient Arenas, and one in the autumn for Field Of Glory. Have a watch of their reveal trailers below.
Ancient Arenas: Chariots is being developed by the originalHard Westdevs Creative Forge, and looks like it will be a balance of managing your chariot-racing enterprise with racing the death carts themselves. The full Ben Hur experience, then, spread across four classical regions: Rome, Greece, Egypt and Hispania. You can spectate on races or micromanage to your heart’s content, but watch out for the health of your charioteers and horses. You’ll also need to keep their equipment like armour for riders and horses up to code using your blacksmiths too.
Other details are still thin on the ground at the moment, butField Of Glory: KingdomsandAncient Arenas: Chariotswill both be available on Steam and GOG when they eventually launch.
