Hot on the heels of Alfred the Great and Gaelic king Flann Sinna, Wales' King Anaraut enters the throes of Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia.
Son of Rhodri the Great, Anaraut looks to grow his homeland into a new and prosperous kingdom that spans the entirety of the Welsh peninsula—in order to "win the pride of its people and cement his own place in history".
Cue this lovely-looking, metaphor-inspiring, mountain-climbing cinematic:
Oh boy, boyo.
"Players can emulate Anaraut’s vision by achieving the Fame Victory Condition," explains publisher Sega in a statement. "Which demands a powerful and prestigious Kingdom be built, measured via the metric of ‘Fame’ in the game’s Campaign mode. Fame can be increased through economic development, technological breakthroughs, wars, and a variety of event chains as players progress through their campaign."
Developer Creative Assembly provides more on all of that in this blog post.
Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia is due April 19. Check out our prior coverage—not least Tom's hands-on impressions—in this direction.
