Paradox Interactive announced Majesty 2 - The Fantasy Kingdom Sim for a first quarter of 2009 release today. The original Majesty was a cross between a kingdom-builder and real-time strategy game where you would 'hire' stereotypical fantasy heroes to battle evil forces threatening your lands.
Official Release:
Globally renowned publisher Paradox Interactive, is proud to announce that, having acquired the license for the much loved Majesty brand, will be releasing a long hoped for sequel in 2009.
Majesty 2 – The Fantasy Kingdom Sim will focus on reinventing many aspects of the original game, updating the franchise for the 21st Century. A key element that will permeate the game is the charm and humor of the original Majesty.
'This is by far the biggest release from Paradox to date and it is sure to become one of the most anticipated titles of 2009', said Fredrik Wester, Executive Vice President for Paradox Interactive. 'Our aim is to release a fantastic game that not only encourages existing fans to renew their passion for the series, but also to reach out to the broader gaming community that has grown so much since the original was released', he continued.
