If you can't get enough of 4X turn based strategy games, here's another one(well it's not exactly raining with 4X strategy games these days). Kalypso announced Lord of Pegasus which has nothing to do about a Greek mythical creature. It's a 4X strategy game which has a turn based mode where you control your empire and direct your fleets and a real time mode which I'll assume is the bit where you control a battle. Much like Sword of The Stars. It's coming out in Q2 of 2012. Not exactly excited about it, but as a fan of strategy games, I have to give them the benefit of the doubt. There's isn't enough known about this game to even say if this is promising. Press release and screens below...
Kalypso Announces 4X Space-Sim –“Legends of Pegasus”
Bracknell, UK – 11th August 2012 - Kalypso Media is taking players into the depths of space in 2012, with the announcement of Legends of Pegasus for Windows PC. The 4X space simulation will put players in control of the last surviving humans, as they explore space in a quest to expand their galactic empire. Players will conquer and explore an incredibly detailed 3D universe as they use economic, diplomatic and scientific means to expand their empires. Through a deep technology tree, players will unlock new technologies to customize their ships and prepare their fleets for the next alien encounter…be it hostile or friendly. In development by Novacore Studios, Legends of Pegasus will be released in Q2 2012.
Legends of Pegasus is set in a far-flung galaxy, in the long distant future, as a small group of human survivors strives to recreate their lost empire. The player, in control of this ragtag fleet, must explore the depths of space, encountering other space-faring races that can quickly become helpful allies – or lethal foes. It’s up to you, as the leader of this fleet, to build a new empire, via economic, diplomatic, scientific and militaristic means. New technologies are available through research and conquest – and can be applied to custom starship designs. Sophisticated economic strategies and trade are the foundation of this empire’s strength and prosperity!
