Developed by a seasoned team of developers, and led by real-time
strategy (RTS) and social games pioneer Mark Skaggs, Empires &
Allies gives players new levels of strategic choice and control in
every battle.
"Empires & Allies delivers all the fun, action and
excitement from traditional RTS games to players on their mobile
and tablet device," said Mark Skaggs, senior vice president of
games at Zynga. "For us it's all about the 'BOOM' – explosions, fun
and strategy built on top of the modern military weapons of war.
We're giving action strategy players a great blend of strategic
depth and tactical control while keeping the action simple, fast
and furious. From talking to players, we know that they are looking
for a fun modern military strategy game on mobile. Empires &
Allies was designed to be that game and it's been encouraging to
see the excitement and passion from players over our last few
months of beta testing."
Empires & Allies has built a loyal following during its
geo-lock beta in nine countries over the last few months. Starting
today, join your friends, form alliances and build your perfect
army with new, exciting features including:
- Design Your Perfect Army, Build Your Perfect
Base: Build your army of troops, battle-hardened tanks,
helicopters, warplanes and more, tapping into today's modern
military arsenal combined with the military technology of tomorrow.
Specially craft your base defense to guard against onslaughts from
other players and acquire resources to save or conquer the globe.
- Unleash the Weapons of Modern War: Lead your
army into battle and unleash the weapons of modern war from
tactical nukes, hellfire missiles and orbital strikes. Each weapon
packs over-the-top, Hollywood-style explosions, excitement and fun.
- Enjoy New Levels of Strategy and Control: No
battle plan survives contact with the enemy, and Empires &
Allies gives you more control over how each battle plays out and
how you respond. Use flares to direct your units during battle and
amass Command Points to deploy devastating weapons of war. Highly
variable combat scenarios in player-versus-player and
player-versus-environment modes offer increasing levels of
challenge that emulate the unpredictability of warfare.
- Join Forces with Your Friends and Form
Alliances: Empires & Allies gives even more meaning to
a player's alliance with shared resources and speed boosts. Players
can connect with friends in-game and private chat for even the most
covert operation mission plans. New to the action strategy category
is a feature called Strike Force, where players can assign allies
to base structures for powerful boosts.
Empires & Allies is available in 13 languages, including
English, French, Italian, Spanish, German, Simplified Chinese,
Korean, Japanese, Russian, Dutch, Norwegian, Portuguese (Brazilian)
and Turkish. The game marks Zynga's entry into the action strategy
category on mobile and is a first step in the company's commitment
to the category in 2015.
Empires & Allies is available starting today for free on the
App Store for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch and on Google Play. For
