Was the original Xbox that powerful to render so many units? Things get pretty crazy towards the end with lots of units on the field, and micro managing your troops becomes more important. It starts off a bit slow, I think his campaign is considered mostly a tutorial. Pressing two attack buttons at the same time calls on one of your Officers to give you support by doing a special move.Īfter completing Gerald's campaign, I gotta say I'm impressed that this game came out on the original Xbox. When in combat, the game turns into a hack and slasher. Pressing down on the Dpad brings up field skills, if you have any learned, to cast support spells or issue commands to support units. When out of combat, you move around by navigating the cursor to different locations and commanding your troops to move. There's a 4K texture mod available for The Crusaders, I downloaded and installed that.Ĭombat is a little weird, you got three attack buttons and a block button. I forgot these games got ported to PC a few years ago, so I decided to dive into both KuF The Crusaders, then Heroes after. I've been wanting to play these Kingdom Under Fire games for so long.
