Airships: Heroes and Villains the first DLC for the game is coming to Linux, Mac, and Windows PC. All credit goes to the ingenious developer, David Stark. Due to make its way onto Steam, GOG, and itch next month.
On July 20, 2023, an exciting new expansion will hit the digital shelves. Coming to Airships: Heroes and Villains. This isn’t just the first DLC for the game, though. It’s the first one for the steampunk infused creation and battle simulator Airships: Conquer the Skies. Along with the thrill of crafting flying machines and taking over the world.
So, what’s special about Airships: Heroes and Villains? Well, this isn’t your ordinary expansion. In this one, you can bring on board unique personalities – commanders and governors – to help run your ships and cities. They’re not just figureheads. Each one has their own unique abilities that can really change the flow of the game.
Take commanders, for example. These are not your run of the mill ship captains. They can perform crazy maneuvers to sneak past rival ships, turbo boost their engines for that quick escape. Even find unexpected things to use as ammunition. But the real showstoppers in Airships: Heroes and Villains? Some commanders are sorcerers. These guys can mess with opponents, change the weather, or call upon mystical creatures for help.
Airships: Heroes and Villains First Look
And then you’ve got governors. They’re the ones who ensure that your cities are functioning smoothly. They boost output, keep the peace, and can declare all kinds of actions. Serious ones like martial law or forced labour, or even things like a masked ball.
But here’s the kicker – your actions in Airships: Heroes and Villains will shape these characters over time. Depending on what you do, they can earn experience, show more or less loyalty or their moods can change. They can become more angry, stressed, or even lose their minds. But they can also become more powerful, renowned, or even morph into entirely different versions of themselves. Due to being more seasoned, disillusioned, or invigorated.
Just keep in mind that these changes can swing both ways in Airships: Heroes and Villains. If a governor turns against you, they could cause serious problems. But a hero that gains fame or magical power? That’s a ticket to controlling the world. You’ll get to see the impact of your choices in real time, which is part of what makes this expansion so good.
So, mark your calendar for July 20, and prepare to recruit your team in Airships: Heroes and Villains. The first DLC is due to be priced at $8.99 USD / £7.49 / 8,99€ on Steam, GOG, and itch next month. Along with game support for Linux, Mac, and Windows PC.
