True to its roots this new Stronghold will define old school real time strategy, combining RTS and city builder gameplay.

Crusader 2 will recapture the original game’s addictive, fast-paced gameplay and authentic castle simulation. After 12 years Stronghold returns to the deserts of the Middle East circa 1189, with a new 3D engine and realistic castle destruction powered by Havok Physics. Stronghold Crusader 2 is the long awaited sequel to Stronghold: Crusader, the original 'castle sim'.
