A new turn-based strategy game has been announced at the Xbox Showcase. The game will be called Ara: History Untold and based on the trailer, it is very reminiscent of the Civilization series.
While we wait for a new installment in the popular Civilization franchise, we can probably get started with Ara: History Untold. The game was just announced at the Xbox Showcase. Unfortunately we only have a cinematic trailer, but what we already know is that it will be a turn-based strategy game.
Whether it will be on the same level as the big Sid Meier games is still a question, but it’s nice that there might be some variation soon. What exactly the game will do new remains to be seen, but hopefully we’ll get to see gameplay soon.
