''War of the Vikings'' is an action game developed at Fatshark and released by Paradox Interactive. It was developed by the same team that made War of the Roses. The game was announced at the Paradox Platypus Homecoming Event on 7 August 2013 in Sydney, Australia. The announcement notice said that "''War of the Vikings'' is a new standalone entry into the War-franchise that will pull players into the brutal and bloody Viking Age, challenging them to design a personalized warrior and sack England as a mighty Norseman – or defend it as a brave Saxon. Built on the same close quarter combat-tech as ''War of the Roses'', ''War of the Vikings'' delivers the next generation of Paradox’s close quarter combat focused brands that moves the setting to the Viking Age. All of these factors enabled us to create a game experience that has an increased intensity, improved accessibility, and more intuitive combat experiences ensuring you’re always presented with interesting choices."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.paradoxplaza.com/games/war-of-the-vikings )〕 War of the Vikings was shown at Multiplay UK's Insomnia festival and at Gamescom〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://uk.gamespot.com/war-of-the-vikings/videos/war-of-the-vikings-alpha-gameplay-demo-gamescom-2013-6413948/ )〕 August 2013.

The player will be able to define the game character profile by choosing everything from armour style, heraldry, shield paintings, beards, armour, weaponry and perks. The game plays mainly in a third-person viewpoint and is a multiplayer game. So far, the player can choose from 5 character classes:. Warrior (Medium Class): An all-around warrior with medium armor, with a sword and shield, and throwing axes. Champion (Heavy Class): Heavily armored, with charged up attacks whose two-handed axe deals a lot of damage. Skirmisher (Light Class): A ranged fighter who picks off enemies with a longbow, but carries a light axe for close-quarter combat. Shield Maiden (Medium Class): A defensive front liner with spear, javlin and the Snowflake shield. Berserker (Light Class): A fast, dual wielding fighter with two swords. Melee attacks are a right,left swing and overhead. Each melee weapon also has a special attack which does a large amount of damage if it connects but will leave the attacker vulnerable while the animation plays. There are 5 game modes, each of which can be played by up to 64 players. Arena is a single life game mode in a small map, when a player is ‘downed’ they can be killed by the attacker hitting them where they lay or resurrected by a team mate. Pitched Battle is the larger version of a single life game mode, suitable for clan battles. TDM game mode where the player can respawn however each full death counts towards the score (a resurrected player does not count as a death for the game score). Conquest is a multiple life game mode where the teams battle to advance one objective at a time. Domination is another multiple life game mode where all objectives are available and must be held simultaneously to win. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「War of the Vikings」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
