Playdigious Is Bringing Popular RTS Northgard to Mobile

Northgard, the highly acclaimed real-time strategy game from Shire Games, is coming to mobile courtesy of Playdigious.

Originally released in 2017, Northgard is a viking-themed RTS in which you, a Northman, find yourself in the promising new territory of Northgard. Your goal is to establish a colony while fending off dragons, zombies, and inclement weather.

To succeed you’ll need to build up your settlement over the seasons, ensuring that it has solid defenses and the skills and infrastructure to survive and thrive. Gameplay-wise, Northgard is similar to Age of Empires, though it’s inevitably more sophisticated and better looking.

If you’re a fan of strategy games on mobile, this is a big deal. Northgard is one of the most critically acclaimed examples of the genre to have arrived in recent years, and it’s likely to be cheaper on Android than it is on PC or console.
