Slavic Magic’s medieval city-builder Manor Lords has hit a new wishlist milestone before its Steam Early Access launch and has hit a new wishlist milestone. After reaching two million wishlists as of January 2024 and crossing 2.5 million earlier this month, it’s now at a whopping three million.
In a press release, Hooded Horse CEO Tim Bender stated, “Slavic Magic has done amazing work. We’re honored and glad to be his publisher and help him realize his dream.” Developed by Greg Styczeń, a “(mostly) solo developer”, Manor Lords is a mix of real-time strategy and city-building in the 14th century.
As a royal leader, your job is to build up a settlement and lead its people, improving their lives and amassing an army. You can also delve into trade, hire mercenary groups to fight for you, take out bandit camps and claim nearby lands for your burgeoning kingdom. Of course, there are leaders with the same objective, and whether you co-exist with or declare war on them is up to you.
Manor Lords enters early access on April 26th for PC players. Slavic Magic recently set expectations for the title, revealing how it’s not like Mount and Blade, Age of Empires, Kingdom Come: Deliverance or Total War. Head here for more details.
