Armello News Abound Today, New Character, New Visuals & A New Platform

Have you heard of Armello, it was launched on Kickstarter and is a fantasy board game come to life, watch the trailer first, then I will talk.



League of Geek, the developers of Armello have announced that the game will now come to PlayStation 4 alongside the PC release, this September. On top of that, the games visuals will get even more of an overhaul, to look as great as they can and there is still more, a brand new character has been announced, Brun Oakbreaker and will be shown off during E3.

"While we knew Armello would be something special, the overwhelmingly positive feedback we received from players surprised even us," said Trent Kusters, founder and director, League of Geeks. "Armello has enough simplicity for anyone to pick up and play, and has just enough depth to keep hardcore gamers coming back for more." 

Set in a vibrant magical world with a tinge of darkness, Armello thrusts players into a Game of Thrones-esque struggle for power in epic single or multiplayer action. Players take on the role of a 'Hero' from one of the four animal clans and navigate their character across the procedurally generated board as they quest, scheme, explore, vanquish monsters, perform the Mad King's royal edicts and face off against other players, with one ultimate goal in mind - storming the palace and becoming King or Queen of Armello.


Players start in their clan grounds and traverse the board with a set number of action points for each turn to spend on moving their character from tile to tile. Each tile presents different consequences including exploring a dungeon, gaining or losing health, claiming a settlement for your own or granting stealth. With more than 100 beautifully animated and illustrated cards, players can cast spells, recruit followers, uncover ancient treasures and execute treacherous plots as they quest for the throne!
