Unite to Save the World in Sacred Citadel

Unite to Save the World in Sacred Citadel

If gamers have been looking for an action packed, Conan the Barbarian inspired love letter to retro classics like Golden Axe and modern gems like Castle Crashers then it is probably time you met the all new hack and slash side scroller, Sacred Citadel.

Sacred Citadel and its developers Southend Interactive hope to bring the blast from the past 2D coop adventure back into the palms of the fans that hold it so dear to their hearts through an engaging campaign rich with its own lore and unique characters.
Take control of a selection of powerful warriors that must unite against a terrible force that the world of Ancaria has never seen. With Lord Zane’s Ashen Empire drawing ever closer, gamers must wield the might of a Safiri Warrior, an Ancarian Ranger or Khukuri Shaman as they battle an army of terrifying Grimmoc Orcs that threaten to break the balance in their once peaceful land.

Use the powers and abilities of your chosen warrior as you dual wield weapons, cast spells and unleash deadly combos that are unique to each character that all come to life through beautiful cell-shaded graphics and special effects. Finally gain the ability to once again ride mounts in a hack and slash game and use newly introduced “War Machines” to gain the upperhand in epic battles that span an entire campaign storymode that can be experienced with friends through drop-in and out coop.

Sacred Citadel is looking to bring what we loved about couch coop back to the masses with an engrossing multiplayer coop mode and has to be seen to be believed.
Sacred Citadel is looking to be released in the coming year of 2013 through digital download for the Playstation 3, Xbox 360 and Steam, along with other ESD partners that hope to release the game for their own download services.
