The trailer embedded above is the announcement trailer for Stoic’s The Banner Saga. The game is described by the developers as “role-playing meets turn-based strategy, wrapped into an adventure mini-series about vikings.”
The team developing the game are former BioWare Austin employees. The studio recently released Star Wars: The Old Republic, a Star Wars themed MMO. The team at Stoic includes Arnie Jorgensen (former Lead Concept Artist), Alex Thomas (former Senior Environment Artist and Cinematic Designer), and John Watson (former Lead Combat Programmer).
Stoic are currently self-funded but are making plans to do a Kickstarter for the game.

Very stylish. I like the idea, just please let there be a job class system.
Link / Replysort of looks like the Dragon Age flash game. Cool idea.
Link / ReplyInteresting, my only problem is that I don't tend to like these sort of Turn Based Strategy RPGs where you are left with a simple flat grid for combat. Obviously it's still to early to judge it but I do like the art style of it, very eye catching and I just hope it has the gameplay to back it up.
