Hooded Horse and Slavic Magic’s highly anticipated historical city-building and strategy game Manor Lords, has smashed through another wishlist milestone ahead of its April 26 release.
Manor Lords has captured the imagination of gamers the world over since its original announcement and has been picking up momentum ever since — From the 2022 demo that generated over 500,000 wishlists alone to the fact that the game passed 2 million wishlists in the wake of the release date announcement. As the pre-release campaign kicked into full swing, it was recently announced that the city-building sensation had passed 2.5 million wishlists, and now, seven days later, Manor Lords charges past this latest milestone with four days to spare ahead of launch.
“Slavic Magic has done amazing work,” says Hooded Horse CEO Tim Bender. “We’re honored and glad to be his publisher and help him realize his dream.”
Manor Lords presents a vibrant and detailed world inspired by 14th-century medieval life. With a high degree of historical authenticity and a rags-to-riches premise, players will be tasked with growing a humble village into a powerful feudal city. The game mixes complex city-building systems and intricate production chains that feed into a real-time tactical combat layer where the workers are also the warriors.
Manor Lords will release into early access for PC on April 26, 2024 via Steam, GOG, Epic Games Store, and will also be available day one on PC Game Pass (Game Preview).
