About
In this RPG, you are a hero in a time of chaotic upheaval. Explore the six worlds of Norse mythology, amass your forces and vanquish your enemies on the battlefield in the name of your chosen God. Will you choose to enforce change for those that crave it or will you seek to maintain the status quo - for better or worse? 

You, alone can determine the fate of the world.

You, alone are the master of your own saga.

Features
  • Vast vistas to explore: Wander the six worlds of Norse myth, from the lofty forests of Midgard to the fires of Muspelheim. Each time you start a new campaign, the world is procedurally generated to ensure each adventure is a venture into the exciting and unknown.
  • Rich tactical combat: Recruit and command an expansive range of units with unique abilities. Learn to use your troops – and the terrain of the battlefield – to crush your enemies.
  • Emergent storytelling: Who you are and the choices you make have a direct impact on the journeys you embark on. The game’s procedural quest system will take note of your deeds and challenge you accordingly. No two playthroughs will ever be the same.

Paradox make the best strategy games on any system right now, so hearts of iron will be pretty much a compulsory purchase I'm sure.
What will be really interesting is if they manage to make an rpg just as good. I hope so.

Really exciting news, throwing money at the screen for that RPG!

So glad to see this amazing company supporting Linux. Agree with Maquis196 though, paradox are time vampires, up to 160hours so far on EU IV, loving every minute of it, will have to make due whilst waiting for Runemaster! :D

I'll buy it either way, though I hope Runemaster is not just another Diablo clone, but has more depth to it than any of them. How? I don't know, but it's Paradox - if anyone can do it, it's them. I don't need a 30-hour YouTube video primer as an introductory tutorial, but a little more than hack, slash, loot, rinse, repeat would be great.

Doesn't sound like a diablo clone :).
