About King's Bounty: Dark Side
King's Bounty: Dark Side was developed by Fulqrum Publishing. The release date was August 18, 2014. The genre is characterised as RPG and Strategy.
King’s Bounty: Dark Side is a standalone entry in the King’s Bounty series that turns the familiar fantasy world on its head. Instead of fighting against darkness, you take control of it — experiencing the story from the side of villains, outcasts, and forbidden powers. Choose one of three unique dark heroes: an Orc warlord, a Vampire lord, or a Demoness. Each character offers a distinct starting point, personal storyline, and playstyle, shaping how you explore the world, build your army, and approach combat. Their journeys intersect with familiar factions — but this time, the forces of light stand in your way. Exploration unfolds across a large world filled with hostile territories, dangerous creatures, and morally dark choices. Towns, wilderness, and dungeons are packed with quests, secrets, and powerful artifacts, encouraging careful planning and risk-taking as you grow stronger. Combat follows the classic King’s Bounty formula with deep, turn-based tactical battles. Positioning, morale, unit abilities, and spell timing remain crucial, while new dark-themed units, abilities, and spells introduce fresh tactical possibilities. Battles reward preparation and smart decisions rather than brute force. Dark Side expands progression with new companions, artifacts, and mechanics tied to each hero’s dark origin. Army composition and long-term planning play a central role as enemies grow stronger and encounters become more demanding. By shifting perspective and embracing darker factions, King’s Bounty: Dark Side offers a familiar tactical experience with a distinctly different tone — challenging players to rethink their strategies and explore the world of King’s Bounty from an entirely new angle. • Three dark heroes with unique companion systems Play as an Orc, Vampire, or Demoness — each hero has their own companions, abilities, starting conditions, and progression, shaping a completely different playthrough. • New battle companion A powerful combat companion actively participates in battles, adding a new tactical layer and influencing how encounters unfold. • New dark-themed units, artifacts, and Rage abilities Command new troops, equip powerful artifacts, and unleash devastating Rage skills designed specifically around darker factions and aggressive playstyles. • Over 100 new quests and 15 new locations A massive set of new story quests and side missions tied to the darker regions of Teana, offering fresh challenges and rewards. Explore previously unseen parts of the world, filled with unique enemies, secrets, and tactical encounters never visited by royal bounty hunters. • A darker perspective on the King’s Bounty world Experience the story from the other side of the conflict, where familiar factions become enemies and moral choices take on a darker tone.
