Paradox Releases “Dark Horizon” and “Mount & Blade”

Paradox Interactive, makers of Supreme Ruler 2020, list two new titles
on their web site: “Dark Horizon” and “Mount & Blade”.
 

Dark
Horizon
is a science-fiction themed game in which “disaster
has taken its harsh grip and the universe is slowly dying. Systems
cease to exist and there seems to be no way of stopping the threat. But
a rumor is slowly spreading through the galaxy of a weapon against this
menace – ‘the Light Core’.  The space action game Dark Horizon
takes place in a breathtaking atmospheric universe with an epic
storyline about the fight for survival.”  The game allows for
detailed spaceship customization, including the ability to disassemble
unused parts of a ship.  There are 22 missions and “extensive
customization opportunities.”  It’s currently listed at $29.99
US or 29.99 Euros.

Mount
& Blade
is an RPG set in a historic context.
 Paradox describes the game by saying “Calradia is a land at
war, a land offering great riches and even greater dangers to the
adventurers and mercenaries that flock to shed their blood on its soil.
With unerring courage and a strong sword, an unknown stranger can make
a name as a warrior and wield the power to depose kings and crown new
ones at a whim.”  This is a “free-form sandbox” style game
where players may go anywhere and do anything in a world with hundreds
of unique locations.  It features horseback combat, an
expansive array of weapons, an advanced sword-fighting system, and an
AI that’s said to be challenging both in combat and in the strategic
realm.  It’s currently listed at $29.99 US or 29.99 Euros.
