In celebration of the release of Stronghold: Definitive Edition, Firefly Studios has released a glimpse at what is ahead in future releases.
Following the game’s launch, Firefly plans to release two major updates for Stronghold: Definitive Edition early next year, each containing separate free and paid DLC content.
The Winter Update will come first, adding new maps and, for the first time ever, a brand new economic campaign. Narrated in English by returning voice actor Jay Simon, this seven mission campaign is set after the events of the original military campaign and will challenge players with construction and resource production objectives. Players will travel north squashing pockets of resistance and rebuild their lands, all against the backdrop of a ravaged feudal empire.
Following this, the Spring Update will add a completely new Castle Trail of siege scenarios, with players traveling across Europe to either conquer or defend historical citadels. Presented as a greatest hits of old and new castles, including the first ever Polish fort in Malbork Castle, this new series of missions will give an edge to those clued up on the strengths and weaknesses of these epic medieval structures.
Each free update will be released together with paid DLC, bearing new narrative military campaigns featuring series antagonists The Pig and The Wolf! ‘Swine’s Bay’ will be followed by ‘Valley of the Wolf’, with both campaigns telling a new side story set during the events of the original game.
Once again voiced by a returning original voice actor, Christopher Kent will continue to tell the story of a young captain of the guard sent north to rescue the niece of fan favorite character Sir Longarm.
These DLCs will each retail for $2.99, £2.49 and €2.99 respectively. Stronghold: Definitive Edition is now available on Steam.
