Mount & Blade 2: Bannerlord gameplay demonstration

At the PC Gamer Weekender yesterday (thanks to all who came, by the way!) we got an extended look at Mount & Blade 2: Bannerlord, the sequel to what it may be safe to call the most beloved medieval sandbox strategy game on PC (and one of the best RPGs of all time, says us). Watch the whole demonstration in the video above, in which TaleWorlds Entertainment walks PC Gamer's Chris Thursten through character creation, combat, and more.

Tyler grew up in Silicon Valley during the '80s and '90s, playing games like Zork and Arkanoid on early PCs. He was later captivated by Myst, SimCity, Civilization, Command & Conquer, all the shooters they call "boomer shooters" now, and PS1 classic Bushido Blade (that's right: he had Bleem!). Tyler joined PC Gamer in 2011, and today he's focused on the site's news coverage. His hobbies include amateur boxing and adding to his 1,200-plus hours in Rocket League.
