The Apocalypse is Nigh - Shadow Empire out on June, 4th

Post by Daniele »

It's hard to call this forgotten planet Home, with its endless deserts and its monsters of unfathomable terror beneath its surface. But it is indeed Home, not only for you but also for your people and it has been since the War.

It is your duty now to act as the leader your people deserve, to protect them and to repel any enemy trying to crush you. You are not alone on this journey to bring back civilization after all. Will you have what to take to resist and survive?

Shadow Empire is coming out on Matrix Store on June, 4th! Brace yourself for the most innovative and deep sci-fi wargame ever designed.

Shadow Empire puts you in the seat of the supreme ruler of a small nation destined for greatness and reconquering a devastated Planet. You have Leaders to help you govern your Zones, administer your Organisations and lead your armies. You’ll also have Stratagems available that you can play on various targets. Can you make your people climb the ladder of civilization and technology once again? Can you conquer and reunite the planet?

Summary of the Features

- Turn-based Strategy
- Planetary Exploration and Conquest
- Hardcore Military Simulation
- Deep management of your Empire and Economy
- Many Stratagems, Stories and Decisions combined with a roleplaying angle
- A Sandbox and Procedural experience that invites to play the game as you want

Looks like it's coming to Steam later this year.

I'm not sure if we get a key from Matrix if we've already purchased through Matrix.

Hi bleek. Thats standard matrix policy.

I'm happy to support Matrix. I bought Distant Worlds and all expansions via Matrix and then on Steam too.

Only realising later, I got a 'free' Steam key to redeem. But not a problem. [:)]

Looking forward to the game Vic, it only popped up on my radar last month!

Anyone have any idea as to the time of release on June 4th? I can't begin to describe how much I'm looking forward to this and how impatient I am to be able to finally play this [:D]

Thanks!

I know Vic is a one man army but I was wondering if the manual would be available ahead of time? Also, just wanted to say thank you for all the wonderful videos that have been published. Really looking forward to playing on Thursday.

Thank you!

Is Vic a one-man army, or is he a God? Or.., is he both?
