Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

About this game

Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord combines action combat, army leadership, trading, politics, and kingdom management in a large medieval sandbox. Players begin as a small independent adventurer and can become a merchant, mercenary, vassal, clan leader, or ruler. Battles allow direct control of a warrior while issuing formations and commands to troops. The campaign also models settlements, economies, diplomacy, marriages, succession, and faction wars, creating long games where military victories and political decisions reshape the map.
