TUSTIN, CALIFORNIA - TimeGate Studios, Inc. and Loki Software, Inc. announce that the hit fantasy and strategy game, Kohan: Immortal Sovereigns, shipped for the Linux platform on Saturday, August 25.
The two companies partnered to expand the existing line of notable titles available to those operating on the Linux platform. Adding Kohan to the line of commercially available games for Linux is a milestone in computer gaming, as it is the first to be included from the immensely popular real-time strategy genre.
The game has received much praise for many of its dynamic features such as:
- An intriguing storyline that emphasizes discovering the history of the Kohan
- Unique company-based combat system, that allows players to build companies from the ground up, mixing and matching over 40 different units to create thousands of combinations
- Classic military concepts, such as morale, supply, terrain, formation, and more that affect how each company responds
- Unique, simple to manage upkeep-based economic system that takes the micromanagement out of RTS economics.
Kohan has an MSRP of $49.95 (USD) and is now available for order from the Loki webstore at http://www.lokigames.com/orders/. A listing of resellers can also be found at http://www.lokigames.com/orders/resellers.php3.
