“Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord combines strategy, action, and role-playing elements into one immersive gaming experience. Players embark on a journey, assemble a powerful team of soldiers, and complete missions on a vast overhead campaign map.

The core of the game lies in the battles, which are carried out on detailed battlefields and players can participate in battles with their own troops. It is worth noting that Bannerlord has improved the core gameplay of the series through a large number of improvements.

Siege dynamics take center stage, offering a more strategic approach than previous games.
