Northgard, the new viking-era revenge game is on its way out of early access and there's a brand new campaign trailer to see what you're getting into. The campaign spans 11 chapters, and follows the saga of Rig, a viking prince who is on a quest to avenge the murder of his father, the High King of the Vikings, and investigate the theft of the Regal Horn. Rig and his right-hand man, Brand, travel to the unexplored continent of Northgard, where you'll encounter allies and dangerous foes as you fight to uncover the sinister motives behind his father's death.
Northgard brings a mix of exploration, village building, resource management, clan diplomacy and tactical combat set in a mythical world packed with Norse mythology and filled with legendary beasts like giants, wyverns and undead warriors. Development on the game has been non-stop throughout early access, with multiple updates bringing three new clans, new units and mythological beasts to encounter, a multiplayer mode with dedicated servers, as well as a host of smaller features and refinements.
