In development since November of 1999, "Battle Realms" has received accolades and applause since its conception. Nominated for Best Strategy Game by the Game Critics Award committee two years in a row, "Battle Realms" has received critical acclaim online, on air, and in print. IGN.com voted "Battle Realms" as Best PC Strategy of Show, and "Newsweek" counted it among its "Five Most Impressive Titles" at the annual Electronics Entertainment Expo held earlier this year.
"Battle Realms" presents a world of dark fantasy inspired by feudal Asia. Led by "Command & Conquer" Producer Ed Del Castillo, Liquid Entertainment combines unprecedented tactical control with critically hailed innovations like unit alchemy and a living resource system. The player leads a clan of devoted peasants, training them each to become unique warriors with a thirst for battle. Once trained, warriors face a difficult environment where elevation, weather and other whims of nature affect strategy. Samurai masters and deadly kabuki warriors face off against warlocks and necromancers in a world that draws its inspiration from both history and fantasy. Armed with a rich story and a robust 3D engine, "Battle Realms" combines a unique, living resource system and a detailed combat model to put the strategy back into real-time strategy.
