About Stronghold: Definitive Edition

Stronghold: Definitive Edition invites you to relive the glory of the original BAFTA-nominated real-time strategy game, the classic castle sim that started it all. Carefully rebuilt using the source artwork, remastered music, returning voice talent and veteran developers of the first entry, it lets both longtime fans and newcomers experience the game that launched a legendary series.

Set in the fractured, war-torn frontier of medieval England, the story sees the King betrayed by his treacherous lords and the realm on the verge of collapse. You take control of scattered forces to reunite the kingdom, striking down each villainous Lord across missions that range from breaking sieges and capturing enemy castles to building epic fortresses and repelling assaults, all while testing your strategic mind through both military and economic campaigns.

The experience pairs classic RTS and city-builder gameplay with remade graphics, community-requested features and a remastered score from series maestro Robert L. Euvino. You gather resources, raise mighty castles, protect townsfolk, manage gold and wage all-out war. Building on a 20-year legacy, this definitive edition packs two classic campaigns across 26 missions plus fresh single-player content, delivering a rich simulation and strategy experience on PC.
