It’s been a joy to once more defend my fantasy realm in Majesty 2, or in this case reclaim would be more appropriate.

Majesty 2 is a proper sequel to the decade old hands-off strategy game, with nigh-identical gameplay and very similar units, buildings and upgrades. It may not expand upon the basic gameplay premise much, but then there hasn’t been a game like this in nearly a decade, so I doubt anyone will complain.

The singleplayer campaign took quite some time to play through, but offered a great variety of different scenarios. One map you’d be straight out destroying an opponent, whereas the next you’d be tasked with finding certain items, constructing a specific building, escorting trade carts or sending a hero to a location on the map. All very much like the original game, and a lot of fun to play through.

After finishing up the singleplayer campaign I discovered that I had a wealth of beautiful screenshots on my PC. In this edition of Screenshots Galore I share a few of those Majesty 2 screenshots with you.
