Plaion and developer Toylogic have announced a new partnership, with the game of it being Warlander, a free-to-play game, that has you join in battles featuring 100 players, as you attempt to use swords and other medieval weapons to win the battle.

While the game will support up to 100 players, the army sizes will vary, with some battles having two sides, but others having five and when you are in modes like skirmishes and castle sieges, sizes will make a big difference.

Playing either as a warrior, cleric, or mage with their own unique set of skills, players will have the option to build up decks of finely customized characters for the battles ahead. This includes skill and ability customization as well as visual ones to help characters stand out in the heat of battle. There will be two game modes available at launch. First, a two-team mode with up to 40 players and a five-team mode with up to 100 players.

“From the beginning, our mission was to create a game players will fall in love with after the first match. Be it the strategic challenge, the thrill of the combat or the excitement of creating that perfect character deck, we wanted to make Warlander for everyone. A game that doesn’t only offer competitive fun every time you spawn but one that requires true leadership skills and tactics to master. We are eager to start our open beta on PC and show Warlander to the world.” – said Yoichi Take, Game Director and President of Toylogic 

The game will kick-off with an Open Beta stage on PC where players will be able to sign up, try and join the community while helping shape the game’s future by taking part as early as Monday, September 12th, 2022. 

“We are extremely excited working closely with Toylogic on our live-ops title, Warlander. Their experience and expertise are undeniable and the feedback we have received from the international press so far is truly amazing. It’s clear that they can deliver a great gaming experience. Our goal is to deliver such experiences to gamers all over the world.” – said Stephan Schmidt, Director of Global Partner Publishing at PLAION 

There is no date for its full release, nor what consoles the game is coming to and sadly as Toylogic have made games for every platform, we can’t make any real guesses, though Switch is unlikely.
