UGO have previewed Knightshift (aka Once upon a Knight), the humorous RTS/RPG from Reality Pump. Here's a clip:Despite Knight's tragic name debacle, those not quite as superficial as I should be able to get past the moniker and see that there's some good fun to be had. The idea of having two separate campaigns for each gameplay mode is rather original, and will certainly please gamers who prefer one, the other, or both. The comical style is also a step in the right direction, so Knight won't have to worry about getting mixed up with some of the darker, more realistic RTS games out there. The game's only a month away from release, so be sure to watch out for it near the end of September. Time enough, certainly, for just one last minute alteration. Knight School? Dark and Stormy Knight? Just something other than Once Upon a Knight...please! |
