Transcript:

Once the world was at peace, but disaster split the land and decimated entire kingdoms. From the ashes, warriors rose to claim what was left, but three factions were forced to battle for limited resources: The Chosen samurai warriors of the Dawn Empire, the stoic knights of the Iron Legion, and the rage-filled vikings of the Warborn Clans. They battled for a thousand years and ultimately the reasons for conflict were buried under a millennium of casualties.

Soon The Emperor, the lords and ladies, even the Warborn families longed for an end to the conflict, but one figure, the Warlord known as Apollyon believed talk of peace betrayed the factions' growing weakness. Employing deception and her own Blackstone Legion, she would bring an Age of Wolves by pitting her enemies against each other.

To stop Apollyon's war mongering, you must take control of legendary heroes: The Kensei, recently exiled for questioning the Emperor. The Raider, a viking who hopes to unite all the Warborn Clans. And the Warden, a young knight searching for a worthy cause equal to his skill with a sword. Can these warriors put aside their differences and and ignore the fact that Ubisoft just needed a premise to put samurai, knights, and vikings in the same game, or are they doomed to another thousand years of conflict?

Have fun!
