Joan of Arc showcases Enlight's new state-of-the-art graphics engine. With rich, detailed terrain, the game allows real-time control and command of legions of military units, realistically depicting the mayhem and severity of medieval warfare. Through a series of campaign scenarios, players will engage in militia combat as well as command massive battles between the French and English.

“Wars and Warriors: Joan of Arc allows gamers to relive the tremendous challenge of planning and fighting battles during Medieval Europe,” said Trevor Chan, CEO of Enlight. “We are integrating individual battles and military campaigns into the gameplay to provide players with a range of challenges that will test their combat and strategic skills. With a wide variety of medieval weapons and diversified character attributes, Joan of Arc gives players control of their own destiny.”

Set during the Hundred Years War, Wars and Warriors: Joan of Arc will allow players to experience some of the most intense battles fought in medieval Europe. In the game, players transform Joan of Arc from a single warrior into a forceful military leader as they develop and master the art of chivalry and tactical warfare. In addition to managing Joan of Arc, players will have the opportunity to develop and direct other key historical characters involved in this era that will enhance their success as a military leader. This title is published by Enlight Interactive, the company's US publishing division. For more information on Joan of Arc, visit www.enlight.com/joa .
