Team 17 Digital and developer Covenant.dev’s dark fantasy RTS Gord is finally available now for PC via Steam, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series. You can either snag the digital or physical Standard Edition of Gord, or grab the Deluxe Edition, which expectedly contains additional goodies including a new scenario, the game’s original soundtrack, and an art book exploring Covenant.dev’s work in realizing the game’s creatures, and the game’s mythical ruthless world (which we previewed last month).

Created by a team that includes former Frostpunk and The Witcher 3 developers, Gord will see players command the Tribe of the Dawn and embrace the ethical complexity of leadership as they shepherd their community and protect them from invaders and monstrous beasts. Said monstrous beasts are creatures and deities inspired by Slavic folklore.

Players will have to complete quests to grow the tribe’s settlements (known as ‘gords’) and fortify them from invaders while managing their populace.They will need to oversee their citizens’ hunger, disease, and trauma, nurture their faith and train them for battle. That overseeing also includes managing their citizens’ sanity, as everything from illness to hunger and the death of kin can have devastating impact on their lives and well-being.

Meanwhile, the first developer diary for Killing Floor 3 is also available, which “drills into the bloody history and legacy of the franchise, and how the studio is returning to its horror roots with the upcoming sequel.”
