Face off against goblins, cyclopes, griffins, and undead soldiers.
No Steam required. No online pass. Just the game.
The battlefield is fluid. While you fight in third-person action, the broader war rages across a massive map. Strongholds must be captured to cut off enemy reinforcements, supply lines must be defended, and tactical retreats are often necessary when overwhelming enemy forces arrive. Why the CODEX Release Matters for PC Gamers
Upgraded 1080p graphics and improved textures compared to the 2007 version.
At its core, it's a unique strategy-action hybrid. You don't play as a single, super-powered general. Instead, you are a mercenary in the Hundred Years' War who creates or hires squads of soldiers—from footmen and bowmen to more exotic troops like cannons and elephant riders. The game's critical reception was mixed; it holds a "Mixed" rating on Steam, with 67% of 412 user reviews being positive, and critics similarly praised its ambition but noted its dated feel.
Upon release, the game received a reception, a fate that continues to this day with a 68/100 user score on aggregator sites. Reviewers praised its ambition and scale but criticized its repetitive elements and dated visuals.
The "Nightmare" component is a standalone, fictional campaign that completely throws historical accuracy out the window.
