Ancient Warfare 3 is a complete redevelopment of the second part to improve the experience from the core of the game. Dive into a huge sandbox full of action and customization! Choose from different gamemodes like Deathmatch, Reach point, conquest, king of the hill, zombie mode, arsenal and more. Download level bundles to play small campaigns or create you own scenarios in the custom battle editor. Choose your rules, change the environment, place units, objects or traps, choose your equipment or just relax and spectate a battle.

Explore the content from all kind of eras like stone age, high cultures, medieval ages, WWI, WWII and compare them to modern and future weapons or just recreate some historic battles.

Your player can use a very advanced and mixed equipment which will allow a dynamic combat. Use a sword to cut your enemies into pieces, a baton to punch them down, guns or bows to shoot at them, or an rpg to blow them up. Protect yourself with a shield and wear armor to get some protection for different kind of weapons. To support you and your mates, you can carry different grenades, medipacks or ammo supplies.

Much content is already in game and there are still much more gamemodes, units, weapons and equipment planned. Until then, you can test the 300+ units in game with 150+ equipment objects and place 43 different objects.

This is an early version of the game and many things will change until the completion of the game. The system specs are provisionally and may change at any time.
