King’s Bounty: Crossworlds (2010) – A Triumphant Expansion
King’s Bounty: Crossworlds is the highly anticipated expansion to the critically acclaimed King’s Bounty: Armored Princess role-playing game. Developed by Katauri Interactive and published by 1C Company, Crossworlds was released in 2010 and offers a wealth of new content and features that enhance the already impressive foundation of the original game.
The World of Crossworlds
Crossworlds expands the realm of King’s Bounty with two new campaigns: “Champion of the Arena” and “Defender of the Crown.” These campaigns feature unique storylines, new characters, and challenging quests that will test the mettle of even the most experienced players.
In “Champion of the Arena,” players take on the role of a gladiator who must fight their way through a series of increasingly difficult battles to become the champion of the arena. Along the way, they will earn fame and fortune, and gain access to powerful new weapons and armor.
In “Defender of the Crown,” players take on the role of a young prince who must defend his kingdom from a horde of invading orcs. The prince must gather an army, build alliances, and use his strategic skills to defeat the orcish hordes and save his kingdom.
New Features
In addition to the two new campaigns, Crossworlds also introduces a number of new features to the King’s Bounty experience. These features include:
- A new character editor that allows players to create and customize their own characters.
- A new unit editor that allows players to create and customize their own units.
- A new map editor that allows players to create and customize their own maps.
- A new scenario editor that allows players to create and customize their own scenarios.
These new features give players unprecedented control over their King’s Bounty experience, and allow them to create their own unique adventures.
