Ice Lava Games Brings Viking Way of Life to Steam Early Access

Publisher KK Softworks and developer Ice Lava Games challenge gamers to experience the Viking way of life. Sail, explore, trade, build a fleet, and lead your heathen army to raid and conquest. Write your own story of the golden Viking age. You have many choices, and a leader can always find his own.

Sailing and Exploration
Be prepared for a perilous journey on the sea. Optimize your supplies and ship loadouts to survive through storms, icebergs, and reefs. Keep your mind and weapons sharp to take on ravenous pirates at any time. Sail with a careful plan and a bit of luck, new lands full of fortune and adventure await.

Trading
Embrace the high risk, higher reward trading system. As you discover new settlements in different countries, learn each market’s unique supply and demand. Build the most efficient trading route, avoiding major hazards and food shortages on the sea to make sure you and your goods arrive in one piece. Take settlements under your reign and develop for sustainable fortune.

Fleet and Army Management
Design your fleet units wisely for each trip. Upgrade cargo vessels with larger storage space and faster sails. Fortify your battleships with powerful ballistic and armors to protect your cargo. Recruit fearless warriors to ravage anyone in your way.

Brutal Skirmish and Raiding
Engage in third-person, close-quarters visceral combat. Recruit warriors and hero companions to expand Vikings’ imposing presence. Stay cold-blooded for greed. Reap defenseless villages and monasteries, and bravely charge into fortified cities and resilient strongholds. Use your sword, axe, spear, and shield wall to pursue domination of power, wealth, and fame.

Groundbreaking Naval Combat
Intense naval combat requires you to fight smartly. Experience an innovative combination of artillery firing at the range and detailed boarding action. Fire repeatedly at a distance to weaken the enemy, then chase them down, ram them hard, grapple, and board to annihilate them all and loot rare trading stocks.

Story Mode
Follow the main storyline and side quests that lead you to become the most powerful Viking leader. Interact with numerous NPCs and complete their request to gain trust and new opportunities. The none-liner storytelling brings you the maximum freedom and a vivid medieval world.
