New game releases of the week - highlights on Gamesplanet
Yield! Fall of Rome
Forge your Kingdom amidst the Ruins of Rome in this turn-based 4X strategy game! As the world crumbles, rebuild civilization and shape yo...
Genre: Strategy| Release (Early Access): 20.1.2025
Even if it may look like it: Don't expect Daedalic's Yield! Fall of Rome, which launches in Early Access on 20 January, to have complex 4X mechanics like Civilization, for example. Although Yield! offers some fun strategic 4X elements on hexes, it should be a little less demanding, serving up more puzzle than strategy elements here and there. In Yield! Fall of Rome you play one of eight factions and accompany them on various missions. Choose between the Roman culture or keep the traditions of your chosen culture alive - in Yield! you decide your path.

Choose between classic and modern controls, look forward to new playable characters (e.g. Darth Maul and Queen Amidala) and other new features in the remaster. The game also offers a 2-player couch co-op mode and will be available as a new edition from January 23rd.

In SYNDUALITY: Echo of Ada you travel to the year 2222. After a strange rain of poison, not much is left of humanity.
