Xbox Game Studios along with Oxide Games have unexpectedly unveiled their ambitious historical strategy game, Ara: History Untold. The public presentation disclosed the release date for the game.
Originally announced in 2022, Ara: History Untold was initially slated to launch within a year. Nevertheless, the game’s premiere had to be postponed to fall 2024.
The game will exclusively be released on PC platforms; Steam, Microsoft Store, PC Game Pass on September 24th. The announcement took place during a recent episode of the official Xbox podcast (attached below).
Similar to the Civilization series, Ara: History Untold invites players to lead their nation through centuries of progress. However, several unique features distinguish this project from its genre counterparts.
Ara: History Untold fuses traditional mechanics with an absence of conventional victory conditions – Prestige points instead, a non-linear technology tree and the simultaneous turn for all countries with games divided into acts.
The game promises an expansive and vivid world, dozens of historical leaders with unique gameplay styles, 12 technological eras, asynchronous cloud multiplayer, and a text translated into Russian.
In January, the creators of Ara: History Untold expressed their commitment to support the game for a minimum of five years with a variety of updates, minor expansions, and large-scale add-ons featuring even more unique features.
