Your city is the only thing that stands between the enemy and the realm, so losing the siege is not an option. The game, which came out a short while ago on May 18 th, combines resource management and survival elements as it puts you in charge of the defense of a city besieged by a massive invading army. That’s where Siege Survival: Gloria Victis comes in. But rarely do we get a game that focuses entirely on them. Sieges were an important part of medieval warfare and we often see them included in both historical and fantasy games. With that out the way, let’s go ahead and take a look at some of the best new and upcoming medieval games you should check out in 2021 and beyond. Why is this important? Well, the term medieval tends to be used very loosely these days in the context of video games, which often leads to misconceptions about what this historical period was really like. We’re going to cover both types in this list but each of them will have its own category. Right off the bat it’s worth mentioning that we’re going to make a distinction between realistic medieval games and medieval-themed fantasy games. And, as it happens, there are more than enough new video games that can scratch that historical itch either already out or launching in the very near future. Luckily, we can sort of have our cake and eat it too cby playing medieval games from the comfort of our homes.

People often talk about having been born in the wrong century or wishing they could travel back in time to “the good old days.” But let’s be honest, no one would actually want to forgo all the modern conveniences we take for granted today in exchange for living during the Middle Ages.
