Colonists: New Allies has a surprise release date, and players won’t have to wait too long to get their hands on the real-time strategy game. The game launched on his PC in February, but on console he was delayed indefinitely to March.
New ‘The Settlers: New Allies’ release date
The Settlers: New Allies will be released on PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and Amazon Luna at midnight local time on July 4th. The Settlers won’t be coming with a native PS5 or Xbox Series X|S version of him, but it should be playable on those consoles via backwards compatibility. The PlayStation Store’s pre-order page has yet to resurface, so it’s unclear if the PS4 player will get the Founders Pack pre-order bonus that was available on his PC.
The delay lasted just over three months after developer Ubisoft Düsseldorf said it needed more time to “guarantee the best possible experience for players.” Now that the postponement is coming to an end, the game joins The Legend of Heroes: Trails into Reverie and GYLT in the list of 11 PlayStation 4 games releasing this week.
NewAllies is a completely reimagined installment of the franchise, coming with updated graphics and more detailed animations. Players can choose from his three factions: Ellari, Maru, and Yorn. Each has its own playstyle and appearance, but the main objective is still to acquire resources and build enough economies to supply a winning army, and you can upgrade them along the way.
A tutorial introduces players to new game mechanics before engaging them in a story-driven campaign. There are also various online he multiplayer modes for up to 8 players. In these modes, you play against other players or AI.
