Kingdom Under Fire 2 has been delayed on Xbox 360 and PC until late 2010! This was revealed in an announcement by developer Blueside.

Blueside also confirmed that the game will be coming to the Xbox 360. Apparently PS3 gamers won’t be getting the title though which was previously known to be coming to “consoles” but which systems weren’t specified.

Details on the sequel are hard to come by, but in addition to having a single player campaign it will also include a multiplayer RTS MMO-style mode which should definitely have fans excited, as the developers promise it is a one-of-a-kind mode on a gargantuan scale.

Storyline
Kingdom Under Fire 2 is set approximately 150 years after the events depicted in Kingdom Under Fire: The Crusaders. The game marks the return of The Human Alliance and Dark Legion with an added faction called the Encablossians – whose aim is to reassert the cycle of light and dark ages by destroying the current Age of Light, which has already run far beyond its natural course.

This faction is led by Regnier (from previous Kingdom Under Fire titles) who allied himself with Encablossa during the time he was stranded in the Dark Dimension (as depicted in Kingdom Under Fire: Circle of Doom). Whilst other heroes from previous titles may return, including Kendal who in the Dark Dimension underwent a mutation, but is able to control himself still. He is now out to stop Regneir being the only person powerful enough to stop him due to his mutation. The game will also feature a brand new cast of playable characters.
