The Final Age

With the Sixth Age update now live it's time to announce our plans for the future of Stronghold Kingdoms! Once the Sixth Age Glory Race comes to an end on a world, said world will then enter its Final Age. In this age a single House of players must conquer and capture all Royal Towers, a new PvE target on the world map, before the House Marshall decides whether or not to press ‘The Button’ and close their world forever! Select players are then rewarded with ‘Royal Loot’ prize tiers, based on their rank and position at world end.

  • Royal Towers – New randomly-generated PvE targets spawn on the map.
  • New Rules – Towers rebuild once captured by a captain, but cannot be reinforced.
  • Player-Led – House Marshall who controls all towers can end the game world.
  • Massive Loot – Ending the world guarantees the winning house epic rewards.
