A free single player demo of BLADESTORM: The Hundred Years' War is available now on Xbox LIVE Marketplace for the Xbox 360 and on the PLAYSTATION Network.
Set amidst a war-torn 14th century France, the demo delivers a taste of the action game's incredible battles where players will take direct command of entire military units. As a mercenary soldier, players will contract their services to the English or French; with the ultimate goal of achieving glorious fame and fortune.
In the 14th century a quarrel over English succession to the French throne escalated into what history would call the Hundred Years' War. This ongoing war had exhausted the standing armies of both sides and there was a growing dependence on mercenary soldiers.
As arrows rain from above, knights will charge on horseback, cannoniers will fire volleys at heavy infantry, and armies will collide in unprecedented scale. Immerse yourself in ferocious battles where an innovative action style enables you to defeat countless numbers of soldiers with one cleverly chosen attack command. Establish a reputation as a formidable warrior and leader of men, build your war chest and lure hardened warriors to your employ. Outwit your opponents and overwhelm them with dominating force to be the last one standing when the dust settles on one of history's greatest conflicts.
