Galactic Ruler : premières images

Les canadiens de Battlegoat, à qui l’on doit la série Supreme Ruler, viennent de dévoiler un futur nouveau jeu de conquêtes galactiques qui proposera à la fois des batailles à l’échelle spatiales et planétaires, le tout jouable en temps réel. La première bande-annonce diffusée ne montrant pas vraiment le jeu en action, il faudra se reporter aux premières captures d’écrans suivantes pour avoir une nébuleuse idée de ce à quoi s’attendre.

Pour plus d’informations sur Galactic Ruler, dont la sortie est prévue vers le second trimestre l’an prochain, et pour lequel une phase d’accès anticipé débutera au premier trimestre 2020, voyez cette page sur Steam ou le site du studio.

Announcing Galactic Ruler from BattleGoat Studios

Ancaster, Canada – BattleGoat Studios is proud today to announce Galactic Ruler, a new strategy title from the creators of the Supreme Ruler series. “Since the release of Supreme Ruler 2010 almost fifteen years ago, our team and players have discussed the possibility of applying the game system we created to a space setting”, shared Lead Programmer and Co-Founder George Geczy. “Having developed our game engine and gameplay mechanics over all this time, we finally saw a path to making this goal a reality.”

Players will now be able to expand their planetary battles into the space around their homeworld, and from their home system they can expand further within a custom-generated galaxy. The possibilities are endless with options for galaxy size, system density and a variety of alien races to play as or against.

Galactic Ruler offers real-time strategy game play at both the planetary level and in space. Lead your faction in diplomacy or conquest across a unique galactic map where any system might hold hostile enemies or resource riches. Harness needed resources and develop advanced technology to rule the galaxy in the latest offering from BattleGoat Studios.
