Northgard Beta Arrives on Android, Geographical Restrictions Apply
For fans of Norse mythology and tactical combat, Frima Studio's Northgard: Battleborn has arrived! Currently in early access on Android for US and Canadian players, this isn't just a re-skin of the original. Battleborn introduces exciting new gameplay elements while retaining the series' signature Norse atmosphere.
Gameplay Highlights:
The core of Northgard: Battleborn is its 3v3 tactical battles. Selecting your Warchief—a powerful Viking warrior with unique abilities—is crucial for victory. This choice significantly impacts your battle strategy, adding a layer of depth and strategic planning.
A deck-building system adds another dimension to the gameplay. Players customize decks with cards offering spells, buffs, and summonable allies. Careful deck management, tailored to your chosen Warchief, is key to success against legendary Norse creatures.
Early Access Details:
Available now on the Google Play Store (US and Canada only), this early access period allows Frima Studio to gather player feedback and address any bugs, voice-over issues, or optimization problems before the full release. The final game may evolve based on this feedback. A global launch date has yet to be announced.
