Gameforge has announced the exact release date of the MMORPG-RTS hybrid game Kingdom under Fire 2 (KuF 2). You can start on November 14th. But who is the game suitable for?
When is KuF 2 coming out? Gameforge has set the release date for the PC version of Kingdom under Fire 2 to November 14th. Previously, it was only said that the game would come out in November.
A mix of MMORPG and Strategy
What kind of game is this? Kingdom Under Fire 2 combines MMORPG and RTS elements. You control not just a hero, but also three other units as an army.
With this army, you set out to conquer the world. You need to engage in tactical battles. The gameplay is somewhat reminiscent of Conqueror’s Blade.
What do the MMORPG elements look like? You can generally expect classic MMORPG gameplay. This includes:
- Character creation from five classes
- Enhancing your hero with skills
- Conversations with NPCs
- Quests
- Exploring a vast game world
- Crafting
How does the strategy part fit in? Huge battles and the conquest of the game world are part of it:
- You assemble an army from various troops and units
- As a hero, you fight with three additional troops in epic battles
- You can command your armies like in an RTS
- You travel on a world map to interesting places where enormous battles await you
- In battles, you tactically command not only your troops but also actively intervene in your role as a hero
Not a conventional MMO
Who is KuF 2 suitable for? The game is basically interesting for anyone who not only wants to experience classic MMORPG fare with quests and a story, but also for those who enjoy epic battles.
You really need to like real-time strategy if you want to get into Kingdom under Fire 2. Because the wars and troop management as well as tactical RTS battles are an integral part of the game.
Due to the difficult development history, we at MeinMMO also advise strategy-oriented MMORPG fans to wait for initial reports on the state of Kingdom under Fire 2 at launch.
What is special about Kingdom under Fire 2? The MMORTS was announced in 2008 but has been postponed repeatedly. It is considered the most expensive Korean MMO.
KuF2 is not released as a Free2Play but as a Buy2Play game. You need to purchase it. The price for the standard version is €29.99. However, you can also buy more expensive versions that include additional cosmetic and convenience items such as mounts.
Can you pre-order already? You can pre-order the PC version of KuF 2 through the game’s website and thus start immediately at launch. A PS4 version was announced several years ago, but it still does not have a release date. An Xbox One version remains uncertain.
