Turn-Based Tactical RPG King Arthur: Legion IX Set to Release on May 6, 2025

At NeocoreGames, we’re thrilled to announce the arrival of “King Arthur: Legion IX” on Xbox Series X|S. For fans of tactical RPGs or those just stepping into the world of Avalon, there’s plenty to dive into with this standalone adventure. The game’s strategic turn-based mechanics, combined with a character-driven storyline, offer an exciting challenge with new heroes and gripping battles at every turn.

A new menace has arisen in Avalon, not your typical marauding horde, but the legendary Ninth Legion of Rome, which seems to have emerged straight from Tartarus. Led by Gaius Julius Mento, a former Roman tribune, this demonic army seeks to conquer Avalon and establish an Eternal Rome. Yet, before achieving these ambitions, Gaius must rally his dispersed legion.

You’ll step into the role of Gaius Julius Mento, guiding the Ninth Legion as they navigate a campaign steeped in Roman themes. Throughout this journey, expect to encounter monstrous foes born from nightmares, battle fierce Pict tribes, and even clash with the ancient Fomorians and the sly Sídhe. Perhaps the most iconic challenge will be confronting the knights from Sir Mordred’s Round Table, introduced in “King Arthur: Knight’s Tale.” With 15 meticulously crafted missions, you will chart your course through Avalon and ultimately determine the fate of Gaius.

If strategizing and storylines centered around rich characters excite you, then “King Arthur: Legion IX” is your ticket to adventure. Command a team of five to six unique characters, each bringing their own skills into the battlefield. Battles hinge on strategic use of cover, clever trap-setting, and mastering overwatch, as well as seizing opportunities to gain the upper hand.

Legion IX presents six novel heroes, each designed with distinct skills and playing styles. You’ll guide them through the world, evolving their capabilities and equipping them with powerful artifacts to forge the most formidable force Avalon has ever seen.

Part of your conquest involves establishing the stronghold of Nova Roma in Avalon. The rebuilding aspect is crucial and will involve resource management, enhancing structures, and ensuring your heroes are combat-ready for whatever challenges lie ahead.

At the core of “Legion IX” is a pivotal choice that will shape Gaius Julius Mento’s destiny and the fate of Avalon itself. Decisions made throughout your campaign carry significant weight, impacting not only Gaius’ journey but the broader world around him. Prepare to lead the Ninth Legion with your wits and valor, as the game gears up for release on May 6, 2025.
