About
King Arthur: Legion IX is a strategic role-playing game set in a dark fantasy version of the Arthurian legend, where you control characters in turn-based combat. Newcomers and veteran players alike can explore the mythical world of Avalon in this new installment, complete with a fresh storyline and new heroes to command.
Journey as Gaius Julius Mento, a tribune of the ghostly Ninth Legion in a Roman-themed campaign, exploring the mystical land of Avalon. Engage in combat with terrifying nightmares, confront the Pict tribes, the fearsome Fomorians, and the clever Sídhe. Immerse yourself in the power struggle between the Old Faith and Christianity, and clash swords with the knights of Sir Mordred’s Round Table across 15 meticulously designed missions.
In this game, your objective is to locate, restore, and safeguard the ruins of Avalon’s sole Roman colony. As you progress through the campaign, you’ll find yourself at a crossroads: will you embrace the power of a demon, or resist the strength of Emperor Sulla and reclaim your human essence?
Key Features
- A Role-Playing Tactical Adventure – Experience a unique hybrid between turn-based tactical games and traditional, character-centric RPGs. Manage and control a party of five-to-six heroes to explore and conquer the land of Avalon. Engage in deep tactical combat, tough moral choices, hero management, and the rebuilding of Nova Roma.
- Prove Your Worth as a Tactician – Every little move and every decision matters. Use covers, traps, flanking and an in-depth overwatch and opportunity system and turn the entire battlefield to your advantage like a master tactician. Sometimes meticulous planning, sometimes charging simply to combat will be the key to victory. The only difference between a successful or a failed quest may depend on the composition of your party only!
- Heroes Straight from the Abyss – King Arthur: Legion IX introduces six unique heroes who have risen from the Abyss to conquer the mythical land of Avalon. Level up, gain skill points and unlock unique skill trees. Loot, equip and craft hundreds of artefacts and create the deadliest fighting force that has ever set foot on Avalon.
- Wide Variety of Abilities – Use unique skills, Ultimate Skills and World Abilities to overcome the toughest challenges during your quests in Avalon. Take risks and explore various tactical options as heroes don’t face permanent death at the end of the missions. Test your skills in different difficulty modes, from laid-back storytelling to brutal, unforgiving battles.
- Not Built in a Day – Build up and expand the city of Nova Roma. Make sure that your stronghold has the right facilities for your heroes that prepare them for different quests. But beware! Resources are scarce and you have to manage Nova Roma thoughtfully to keep it afloat.
- Regain Your Humanity – Your decisions have far-reaching consequences, influencing both gameplay and narrative. Through your actions, Gaius will either restore his humanity, or forever be transformed into a demon.
