‘Gord’ is a Slavic term for a medievel settlement. It is this which will be your base of operations in the game of the same name. This dark-fantasy strategy title will test your skills of survival. All as you navigate a new world, dominated by freakish monsters out for blood. Yep, Gord is on Xbox, PlayStation and PC.

An Ancient Commander

It comes to us from development team Covenant.dev, which includes former The Witcher 3 and Frostpunk devs. Gord is releasing today on Xbox, PlayStation and PC. You are the commander of the Tribe of the Dawn. And you have been ordered by the King to establish a gord within an untouched land. Untouched by your kind, that is: monsters roam this world, threatening to attack your settlement at a moment’s notice.

As long as you keep your people well fed, safe from disease and of sane mind, then they will work hard to maintain the gord and its resources. This is easier said than done, however. With a number of quests asking you to venture out into the wilderness, to provide for your community. Hunt legendary creatures, discover the secrets of the land, and defend your home against enemy forces, and your people will see you right.

Game Description

Gord is a dark-fantasy, adventure-strategy game set in a hostile, forsaken land inspired by Slavic mythology. Besieged by vile creatures, you must build to survive. But to prevail, you must conquer the darkness beyond the gates.

On the orders of the King, you are charged with striking out to make your mark on an untamed world—building and growing settlements in the face of resistance from raiders, monsters and more.

Take command of the Tribe of the Dawn and embrace the ethical complexity of leadership as you shepherd the community — their safety and sanity are your responsibility. Protect them from hunger, disease and trauma. Nurture their faith and train them for battle. In return, they will pledge their loyalty and lay down their lives. In a land that lusts for blood, every family will learn sacrifice. While the gord offers respite, the darkness does not rest.

You must prepare your party, find the courage to explore these forsaken lands, lead the conquest, and carve a path that will shape the kingdom. Wretched creatures and malevolent deities await you, but powerful incantations and skilled combatants give you a fighting chance to bring light to the darkness.
