Conquer Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin in Conquest Mode

We also got a first look at an all-new game mode in the trailer: Conquest Mode. The single-player challenge mode allows players to face off against a series of repeatable combat scenarios. These scenarios are procedurally generated challenges for 1v1 skirmishes that result in a final battle. Along the way, rule-breaking twists will change the terms of combat including reduced vision, faster m🤡ovement speeds, or strict time limits. Progressing through the mode will earn you a high score, as well as the seed number for that challenge. Sharing that specific Conquest Mode challe🎃nge seed number will allow other players to try to beat your high score.

Multiplayer options will also be avaiไlable at launch with both 1v1 and 2v2 cross-platform competitive multiplayer.

The new Nighthaunt faction will be the antagonist in the campaign as well as playable in Conquest Mode and multiplayer. Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin will release on✅ November 17 on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
