Silverlode Interactive has announced Warspire, which is a follow-up to Saga, their free-to-play MMORTS. Warspire is a “collectible RTS” which uses units and races from Saga, with massive head-to-head realtime strategy games. Warspire will also be free-to-play.
Saga.”With SAGA, the focus is on nation-building and completing quests,” stated Silverlode president Jason Faller. “We wanted the follow-up to be centered on players competing against one another in an intense strategy setting while maintaining the persistency that made SAGA such an innovative game.”
Players can select heroes for their army which can level up, gaining greater power and new abilities. This progress is maintained from match to match. In addition, players can purchase new troops with in-game or real life currency to bolster the forces of their armies.
Warspire will be released for Windows, Mac and Linux, with an invitational closed alpha test scheduled before Fall.
