War of the Vikings is an action game developed at Fatshark and released by Paradox Interactive. It was developed by the same team that made War of the Roses (video game). The game was announced at the Paradox Platypus Homecoming Event on 7 August 2013 in Sydney, Australia.[2]

The announcement notice said 'Developed by Fatshark, War of the Vikings is a new standalone entry into the War-franchise that will pull players into the brutal and bloody Viking Age, challenging them to design a personalized warrior and sack England as a mighty Norseman – or defend it as a brave Saxon. Built on the same Close Quarter Combat-tech as War of the Roses; War of the Vikings delivers the next generation of Paradox’s close quarter combat focused brands that moves the setting to the Viking Age. All of these factors enabled us to create a game experience that has an increased intensity, improved accessibility, and more intuitive combat experiences ensuring you’re always presented with interesting choices.'[3]

War of the Vikings is due to be released early 2014 but will be shown at Multiplay UK's Insomnia festival this August.
