Stronghold Definitive Edition shows off ones of its new campaigns

Devolver Digital and developer Firefly Studios have released a new gameplay trailer for Stronghold Definitive Edition, which shows off some of parts one and two of The Jewel Campaign, check it out.

A side story running in parallel to the military campaign released in 2001, The Jewel Campaign is designed to challenge veteran players of the 20 year old series and also extend the story of the original game. Handcrafted by Firefly co-founders Simon Bradbury and Eric Ouellette, these new missions will be playable at launch alongside both the original military and economic campaigns. The Jewel Campaign remains true to the spirit of the first game while introducing new twists on familiar Stronghold gameplay.

Clocking in at 14 missions total, this new campaign will heavily feature series favourite antagonists The Rat and The Snake. As part of the larger overarching game narrative, players will be tasked with thwarting these nefarious lords from their pursuit of The Boy and the ruin of medieval England. Just as important however will be their own hunt for the kin to another series favourite character, the mighty Sir Longarm. Narrated in English by a new character, who is excitingly voiced by Stronghold series veteran actor Christopher Kent, players will be challenged like never before as they tackle old brutal foes and new formidable challenges.

The game will release on PC this November 8.
