"We have tried to make the best of a bad situation and thankfully, with the help of our IT team, have been able to continue work on the project from home. TaleWorlds has recently been working on the game remotely, but that hasn't slowed down development. "But we know that the current situation has placed a lot of people in a difficult position when it comes to balancing their finances and risking their health," so it decided to introduce some discounts. Loot can be used to unlock different armours and clothing for your character and troops, allowing you to customise the appearance of each troop for each faction, while still retaining the look and feel of the selected. "It might seem like a pretty ideal time to release a game (after all, everyone is at home right!?)," the studio said in a blog post. e1.6.2 saw the introduction of a new multiplayer customisation system that rewards you with Loot simply for playing the game. Set 200 years before, it expands both the detailed fighting system and the world of Calradia. Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord is the eagerly awaited sequel to the acclaimed medieval combat simulator and role-playing game Mount & Blade: Warband. The reason for this? The coronavirus, of course. Establish your hegemony and create a new world out of the ashes of the old.
Anyone who owns a previous title in the series will be eligible for an additional 10% off in select digital stores, too. On top of releasing a day early, Mount & Blade II will also be available for 10% off during the first two weeks of sale. The sequel, developed by TaleWorlds Entertainment, has been eight years in the making. Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord is launching on Steam Early Access on March 30, a day earlier than expected.
