RAEV: Kingdom on the Distant Shores’s new Siege and Combat Trailer is linked below for you:
In RAEV: Kingdom on the Distant Shores, you are free to decide whether you want to forge alliances while ruling peacefully or wage war and rule with an iron fist. The game is set in Nytland, and you step into the shoes of its ruler. As the ruler, you will transform this realm into cities that make up vast kingdoms for the foxfolk called the Raevins. Each Raevin in the game is unique, and they have their own strengths, weaknesses, personalities, and aspirations. You will need to assign the Raevins to different occupations based on their strengths, ranging from merchants to watchful militia.
Surrounding your kingdom are many other kingdoms that want to run their way. As Nytland’s ruler, you will need to make decisions that will affect the entire region. You can choose to build alliances with your neighbors, or you can wage wars and claim their lands as your own. Each decision will also affect your citizens, who will voice their own concerns as well.
The game’s key features are described as:
- Freeform Multi-City Building: Build your way, with gridless placement and modular building attachments that let you customize your kingdom’s look and function.
