Our production team is currently foc <> using on innovative 3D-technology and absolutely new game features." Of course, The Settlers will still stay true to its roots, building on the success of the past titles, which have sold more than 3.5 million copies worldwide on PC alone. Ubi Soft and Blue Byte have already pulled together a team of 25 people including many of the artists who worked on Settlers IV. The team is focusing on creating all new strategic elements with the goal of making the Settlers brand internationally known as a world-class strategy game. The team promises that conflicts between tribes will be illustrated like never before and all new 3D technology will be utilized to evolve the gameplay.
