Durante o FGSS showcase, os desenvolvedores de Mount and Blade 2: Bannerlord revelaram War Sails, uma nova expansão que traz batalhas navais e facções inspiradas em vikings à série pela primeira vez.

O trailer ofereceu vislumbres de vikings a bordo de navios, seguido por batalhas costeiras ferozes enquanto guerreiros avançavam pela praia. Mais tarde, a câmera se afastou para mostrar um mapa do mundo atualizado, destacando civilizações conectadas por vias aquáticas onde enormes batalhas marítimas logo ocorrerão.

War Sails is a single-player expansion that lets players command fleets, participate in thrilling ship battles, and embrace the challenges of naval conquest. Players must learn to navigate ship combat, execute boarding maneuvers, and manage fleets effectively. In addition to combat, the expansion emphasizes logistics, including ship upgrades, trade route management, repairs, and capturing vital maritime hubs to assert control over the seas.

A new Viking-inspired faction joins the fray, bringing unique companions with seafaring expertise. Players will also enjoy expanded character customization, new skills, and perks designed to enhance the naval experience.

The expansion expands the game’s world map with new islands, broader rivers, and expansive open waters, offering more opportunities for exploration and conflict.

Although the release date for War Sails has not been announced, it is already available for wishlist on Steam, signaling its upcoming launch.
