Ancestors for PC, PS4 and XONE is a complex real-time strategy game developed by an independent Polish studio, Destructive Creations. Developers who work there have a reputation of being scandalous due to their controversial shoot’em up game Hatred and rail shooter IS Defense where the players repel an invasion of the Daesh. Despite that, Destructive Creations managed to establish cooperation with 1C, a company that published the game in topic. Initially, Ancestors was released on PCs and Xbox One and on a later date on PlayStation 4.

Plot

The game takes place in medieval times (10th - 12th century, to be exact). Ancestors for PC, PS4 and XONE focuses on the single player campaign that is based on the actual historical events. Developers went the extra mile to not only make sure that the game has the characteristic atmosphere of that period, but also capture the essence of the four playable factions: Slavs, Germanic peoples, Vikings, and Anglo-Saxons.

NEOsite: 7.5 / 10 by Paweł Musiolik

Ancestors Legacy will not achieve its place in the mainstream, but the developer should be proud. They have made an insteresting strategy game with great atmosphere and good gameplay.

COGconnected: 79 / 100 by Jake Hill

Despite the names of real historical figures and the armies of real nations, this is not a "historically accurate" game. It's a badass strategy simulator, one with deep gameplay and that glorifies what is maybe one of the most gnarly periods of human history.

Full Review

NintendoWorldReport: 8 / 10 by John Rairdin

The controls are excellently adapted to a controller, and bring up relatively few issues in of unit control. I do wish the core design allowed for more diversity in of unit production and strategy, but that hasn't kept me from having some great matches. While some of these issues are inherent to the game while others are exclusive to the Switch version, none of them kept me from enjoying my time with it. Ancestors Legacy isn't perfect, but it just might be the best RTS experience on Switch.
