Sengoku Jidai: Shadow of the Shogun is OUT!

Post by AlbertoC »

From the 15th until the early 17th century, Japan’s Shogunate was heavily contested by powerful lords from around the country. The rebellious local Daimyo had grown stronger and began to question and challenge the leadership of the nation. This period, called Sengoku Jidai or the Warring States Period, would become one of the most renowned civil wars of human history.

Sengoku Jidai: Shadow of the Shogun is developed in collaboration between Richard Bodley Scott, the mastermind behind Field of Glory and Pike & Shot, and Jayson Ng an active member of the community. It enhances the highly successful formula of Pike & Shot, enriching it with new features such as battlefield generals and a beautiful and unique art style! Sengoku Jidai features fourteen historical battles on Japanese and Korean soil, three historical campaigns, one sandbox campaign, and a skirmish mode that generates random encounters between more than a hundred army lists from Japan, Korea, China, Manchuria and Mongolia.

For the ultimate Sengoku Jidai experience, a Collector’s Edition is also available adding 2 exclusive campaigns, 4 extra army lists and 3 Field of Glory e-books.

A special 10% launch discount is available for a limited time period. We are going to offer a free Steam key to anyone who bought a copy from the Matrix Games or Slitherine store, once the game is available on this digital platform!

If you want to read more about the game, it has been covered extensively by the press on sites such as Rock, Paper, Shotgun, Digitally Downloaded, Brash Games and Final Boss Fight.

Last but not least, don’t miss tonight’s exciting release stream on our official Twitch channel at CEST 8 PM / UTC 6 PM / EDT 2 PM!

So what are you waiting for? Get Sengoku Jidai: Shadow of the Shogun now!

there is a steam code for the game, available when regestered.
So I guess that is a yes, though I'm not a steam person.

Hello Mikmak

The serial you will from Slitherine is a Steam Key which you can use to activate it on Steam.
When Steam gets released later, you will be able to download and play the game

Kind regards

I've been looking forward to this game - I just bought the Collector's Edition. However, in the store, there was no indication that there is a 10% launch discount - is it included in the current list price of 38.99 EUR?

Ordered, downloaded and installed. Very nice looking game. I like the new capability icons added in the release patch, that's going to help!
