Calling all nautical nerds! It’s time to kick life in the cannonballs and set sail on an adventure of imperial conquest. Out today for PC, Commander: Conquest of the Americas is the latest water-born strategy epic from Paradox Interactive, the game company that consistently proves you don’t need a flux capacitor to make history fun.
Last time, they had us fighting over 17th century trade routes in East India Company for PC. Conquest of the Americas brings the battle closer to our corner of the encyclopedia, putting you in charge of one of seven European powers vying for supremacy over the New World in the 1500s. Command your fleet westward, make land and set up new colonies. Manage both their economies and militaries and watch as your fledgling ports mushroom into full-blown empires. Battle with enemy nations and pirates in traditional RTS fashion or down and dirty in up-close 3D water fights.
Why let Aquaman have all the maritime fun? Score Commander: Conquest of the Americas today.
