The squad-based real-time strategy game, The Valiant, is making the leap to consoles. Don the armor of Theoderich, a former crusader on a relentless mission to keep all hell from breaking loose, and embark on a dangerous odyssey through the vast expanse of medieval Europe and even the Holy Land. All in a valiant effort to prevent the plans of Ulrich von Grevel, a malevolent antagonist seeks to wield a powerful artifact known as the Rod of Aaron, a source of unimaginable and unholy power.
Prepare yourself for an epic journey into an immersive new tactical RTS experience from Kite Games. Take command of specialized units, and strategically deploy their unique skills to triumph on the battlefield. Watch as your units grow in expertise and strength, accumulating battle-hardened experience throughout the gripping 15-mission single-player campaign. Alternatively, join forces with two allies in the intense Last Man Standing co-op mode, where hordes of enemies test your mettle or prove your worth as a knight in fierce PvP battles.
