I don’t know what it is with the RTS and kingdoms, but such combination just pumps my heart. I don’t know why but it sounds like a good gaming combo no matter how you put it.

Richard the Lionheart, a vicious military leader in the history of England, is coming to the PC gaming world.

Screenshots look fantastic!
Paradox Interactive has a history of releasing an awesome kingdom sim, Majesty 2: The Fantasy Kingdom Sim (PC), so we can hope that this can be another case.

Now, to the features list:

• Play through two single-player campaigns – Crusader and Saracen
• Oversee hundreds of soldiers in real-time epic battles
• Command your forces, conquer territory, and expand your realm on a fully 3D map
• Strategically manage your army between missions
• Rewrite the past by playing as famous historical characters serving as the main heroes

The game will be available for PC gamers in Q2 of 2010. Minimum system requirements aren’t too high; AMD64 3500+/Intel Pentium IV 3.2GHz with 1~1.5 GB RAM, and DirectX 9 video cards with 256MB of memory. So basically, if your PC is fast enough to run popular games that has been released for 2009, you’ll have no problem.

We’ll let you know as soon as more information comes along. While waiting, you can visit their Facebook fansite, or visit developer’s official website. – http://www.neocoregames.com/index.php?action=1
