Introversion Software has announced their new game, Arise Dark Lord, an action RTS hybrid where players act as a dark lord aiming to conquer lands with undead legions. Players can raise the dead or control orcish forces to build a corrupting army and claim territory. The game features resource gathering from forests and mountains and allows players to construct a Dark Tower for defense against human resistance. Arise Dark Lord is in early development, with a projected release in 2027, and a Prologue is available on itch.io. The game showcases a Tolkien-inspired art style and enjoyable gameplay.
