HONG KONG, November 17, 2022—Aquila Interactive is excited to announce the development of its first grand strategy game. Gilded Destiny will allow players to confront the prosperity and turmoil of the Industrial Revolution by taking the helm of any nation. Players will assume all responsibility for transitioning their country from a backward agrarian society to a booming industrial powerhouse. The game is a deep simulation of societal transformation, industrialization, the economy, warfare, and diplomacy.
Gilded Destiny is being developed by Aquila Interactive’s own development studio, Aquila Genesis. The game is under development and will be available for pre-release sometime soon. We expect the game to be released in 2024!
Many of the features we have incorporated into Gilded Destiny will offer new innovations for the grand strategy simulation genre.
