[p]We are proud to announce Disciples: Domination, the next installment in the dark fantasy strategy RPG series with turn-based combat. The game takes place fifteen years after the events of Disciples: Liberation, returning players to the fractured realm of Nevendaar. Disciples: Domination will release on PC (Microsoft Store, Steam, Steam MacOS, Epic Games), Xbox PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation®5 in 2026. [/p][p]Players step back into the boots of Avyanna to find that her once-stable rule has begun to shatter. Nevendaar has only grown more volatile, and as loyal factions falter, and tensions rise, Avyanna must navigate its regions – all explored in real time - while the weight of the crown grows heavier by the day. She must hold her crumbling kingdom together, or watch it descend into chaos. 
 
From the seat of power in Yllian, players must manage the demands of war and rule, making decisions that will affect factions across Nevendaar. Dwarves from the Mountain Clans return, and Avyanna’s choices will affect her standing with their forces and four other factions, helping her create a powerful battle squad. Some will be ready to join her cause, while others will vehemently fight against her rule.  Avyanna can also recruit trusted companions, both familiar and not, each with their skills and backstories that can unlock secrets as she steers the fate of the realm. [/p][p]Disciples: Domination refines Liberations signature tactic, grid and turn-based combat, with faster pacing and enhanced interactions. Strategic depth is at the forefront, with faction-specific abilities and dangerous unit synergies which can shift the tide of battle.[/p][p][/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p]In the lead-up to Domination, Disciples: Liberation is 65% off in the Kalypso Store's Monster Sale including 5 for 4 on select titles until August 11th, and 65% off on Steam until August 21st. [/p][p]Disciples: Domination is set for release in 2026 on PC (Microsoft Store, Steam, Steam MacOS, Epic Games), Xbox PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation®5 in 2026. [/p][p][/p][h3]Disciples: Domination Features [/h3]
