Thrones of Britannia Gets New Cinematic Trailer

The Viking invasion of the 9th Century changed the course of British history. Norsemen flooded the land seeking spoils and glory, but many chose to stay and established their influence across the north of England and East Anglia.

In Thrones of Britannia players can carve out their own kingdom of Danelaw, playing as one of two factions of the Great Viking Army (Northymbre and East Engle).

In a new cinematic trailer released today, we meet Guthfrid, King of Viking Northymbre. He began life as a slave but now his prosperous kingdom is an attractive target for a new wave of invaders.

After achieving any long victory condition, players of Thrones of Britannia must brace for war as powerful armies will arrive to take what is theirs. If they can withstand and overcome this onslaught they will be awarded the highest honour, an Ultimate Victory and, in turn, the ultimate bragging rights will be theirs.
