Team17 have released a new 16 minute long gameplay video for Gord, with developer Stan Just, Game Director of Gord and CEO of Covenant.dev explaining everything that you are seeing.

In the video, Just introduces Gord’s unique gameplay blend of city building, community management and player-driven adventure mechanics while examining the wealth of choice players will have during each playthrough of the game’s campaign, and the fully configurable ‘Custom Scenarios’ mode. He also showcases some of the structures players can build, and how settlements (known in-game as ‘Gords’) can be customised with a range of different buildings, such as a combat training facility to access more well-equipped units, and a temple to increase their magical abilities. Just also discusses Gord’s focus on personal stories, explaining how each citizen’s unique personality, attributes and actions can directly influence player decisions and the long-term social dynamics of their community.

The game is coming to PC, but there is no release date yet, you can wishlist it on Steam now.
