New medieval city builder Noble Legacy is like a more relaxing Manor Lords

If you’ve ever fancied yourself a medieval ruler, there are plenty of options. Manor Lords proved the appetite for period city building with its huge early-access launch in 2024, and Medieval Dynasty is similarly well liked. Newcomer Noble Legacy, which has just confirmed its own launch for July, aims to offer a more inviting and laid-back option, minimizing combat and battle elements in favor of a focus on building, customization, and town management. I took an exclusive look at the opening hours, and quickly found myself wrapped in its blend of Valheim-adjacent building and worker organization.
