Get ready to dive back into Ara: History Untold because Oxide Games has dropped a bombshell with their first major update, dubbed “The Invisible Hand.” This isn’t just another patch. It’s a treasure trove of new features designed to refine your strategy and enhance gameplay. Whether you’re a seasoned strategist or a fresh recruit in this grand historical adventure, there’s something here for everyone.
Summary:
- This update is available today for Ara: History Untold.
- The update brings numerous features aimed at streamlining strategies.
- The game is now available on Windows PC, Steam, and PC Game Pass.
The National Economy Screen Takes Center Stage!
This shiny new feature allows players to reduce the headache of resource management significantly, especially during those late-game crises when one wrong move could spell disaster! Picture this: managing all city improvements from one screen rather than fumbling through multiple menus like some medieval peasant trying to find his tools.
Battle Viewer Brings Clarity to Chaos!
If you’ve ever found yourself muttering about why your archers couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn while cavalry charged in like caffeinated horses on parade, you’ll be relieved by the revamped Battle Viewer! It provides detailed stats on unit matchups so you can finally understand where it all went wrong (hint: maybe don’t send spearmen against tanks).
Crafting Gets Some Serious Upgrades!
“We’ve added new craftable items such as Anvils and Mining Picks,” explains Creative Director Brad Wardell, because who wouldn’t want sharper tools for harvesting resources? These amenities will diversify your strategies and let you build up your nation like a true civilization architect!
Unit Upgrades Just Got Easier!
No more tedious redeployments or unit management headaches! With this update, players can upgrade units on the battlefield while keeping their experience intact as they progress from humble spearmen to formidable infantry forces. This mechanic makes you feel less like an overworked general and more like a strategic genius.
Diving Into Modding Territory!
A modding aspect rolls out with this update, too! Now, players can adjust balance settings or create new items; imagine what creative minds will conjure up next! The possibilities are endless if you’ve got the talent (or know-how) to bend the game mechanics to your whims.
Your Personalized Map Awaits!
This update introduces unique map compositions, allowing players to choose familiar terrains for strategic playstyles. For example, I could start safely landlocked yet ready for expansion across most of Australia with Howard Florey as my leader! What better way than navigating history while being king of your continent?
Loyalty To Fans Is Evident Here!
The devs listened carefully, and they’re eager for feedback moving forward! As Wardell enthusiastically states about future updates involving diplomacy options and AI improvements, that’s music to every strategist’s ears because nothing says ‘fun’ quite like unpredictability during turn-based maneuvers.
You can explore these fantastic additions today in Ara: History Untold.
