Some said that the Royal Forest was blessed by the gods. And even though conflicts had come throughout its history to disturb the serenity of the place, it was a dreamland for all: calm ponds, with soothing waters, sheltered by the benevolent canopies of the forest trees; singing rivers, like crystalline vessels of life; and rich lands, conducive to farming, where the King's herds grazed peacefully.
Sometimes, a few remnants of past wars could be spotted in this lush and vibrant landscape—some ruins of stone already overtaken by ivy, nature reclaiming its rights over a misstep. However, they existed for the inhabitants of the Kingdom as a memory, but also as a warning, a totem where each person silently vowed to defend this little piece of paradise with body and soul.

From the tall towers of the castle, the King watched over his people with the kindness of a man tested by years of rustic existence. He, who had worked so hard all his life to maintain the peace of the Kingdom, his beard and hair now graying, reassured himself by knowing that his subjects were unaware of all the energy and cunning deployed to preserve the sweetness of life in the Royal Forest. Yet sometimes, the King felt his heart gripped by a visceral, incomprehensible fear—the fear of falling asleep in the serenity of peace and waking up in the midst of a nightmare.

However, it had been a long time since goblins and other Lords had shown threatening behavior toward him. The Northern Kingdoms remained quiet, embroiled in their own conflicts and contradictions. The desert was silent, its creatures sleeping within. The steel of his sword itself no longer sang with the same intensity as in his younger years. So why did he not allow himself to embrace peace, the King wondered, leaning on one of the railings of his castle, his usually cheerful and merry gaze fixed on the roof of the Trader's little shop, which continued to thrive, equipping passing adventurers, hunters, and villagers with items forged by the strength of their arms. The King smiled. He had a deep friendship for these two young people, who worked hard to make their little shop shine, with a passion that reminded him of his own. With what they had gone through together, fighting goblins and other monsters, the King felt a sense of calm: he knew he could count on brave companions, no matter what fate had in store for him and his lands.

The King let out a light sigh and shook himself: no, really, what could happen that he should be wary of?


Despite the Royal Kingdom and adjacent Royal Forest being the birthplace and home to the King, his Advisor and all the Kingdom’s other inhabitants for so many years, there’s still hidden corners to be discovered, no one seems to have ever laid eyes on. While quirky recluses like Guido manage to settle down in some of the more deserted glades and places, the Royal Forest still houses many secrets. Take those ominous Obelisks that suddenly showed up out of nowhere, for example. What mystery could they possibly be hiding?


On the brink of an event that is threatening to shake the realm's pillars of harmony to their very foundations, unknown forces are emerging to taint and destroy everything that is pure and innocent. What is it that our brave Warriors have to face and who is behind all this?

When designing the Royal Forest, two things were of special importance to us:

• It should visually serve as a serene home to all the Royal Revolt protagonists we have grown to love over the years. A peaceful spot of nature with all the green and small rivers one could ever dream of - a place worth fighting for.
  
  
• At the same time, it should hold remnants of past conflicts, residue of war, reminding us of what once was. A place that is also clearly located close to the very kingdom players have been able to experience in previous franchise titles.

When the events of Royal Revolt Warriors kick off, we want it to be a place where we put ourselves on the line to protect. Not showing a single sign of what is about to happen.
