Relive the celebrated real-time strategy classic Praetorians, re-imagined in high definition.
Praetorians is set amidst the political machinations of an emerging Roman Empire. Prove your worth on the battlefields of Egypt, the combat theaters of Gaul and finally the heart of the Empire itself in Italy, in the crusade to become Emperor.
Your quest will not be an easy one, as the Empire is heavily defended by thousands of different troop types and war machines, all with special skills and individual strengths. To emerge victorious, you’ll need to learn to combine your units and exploit the weaknesses of your enemies. But beware – the closer you get to the Emperor, the closer you get to facing the Praetorian Guard – the most powerful and deadly fighting force in the Empire!

Hello all.
This is just an HD overhaul, like the Stronghold ones, not a remastered version or at least, a very poor one. Little UI changes, no "quality of life" improvements, I do not feel to suggest this game over the non HD version of it. I give it three stars for it is still Praetorians, a good old classic, that sadly has not aged very well in my opinion. But overall this HD is not a passing grade. Take old version instead
The original Praetorians is very cool. Highly underrated. I enjoyed it a lot.
But same as with the "Commandos" games, this is a really bad "remaster", if you can even call it that.
Poorly executed, it's not much more than just a HD-texture mod slapped on top.
In addition a very shitty move by Pyro Studios to remove the old games from store and not offer them anymore (I guess to promote this new "over holed" version, where they also probably removed things due to expired licensing deals?).
I'm so glad, I bought all the old version when they still were available. Really shitty move from a games preservation standpoint.
I can enjoy and relive the unchanged old versions and if I want better textures, I apply a free fan-mod (e.g. Mods Complex) and get a similar or better result, with better performance.
An example of a remaster done right while still including the original underneath would be the Monkey Island games and others of their line <3
Retroactively changing finished and completed products due to expiring licenses should be illegal.
You can offer improvements and bug-fixes - but not change or kill the original basis.
And companies that are lazy and apply graphics mods, remove the original and slap a new insane price tag on it (for this lazy effort?) have no place in the market.
Calling this a "Remaster" is a disgrace!
DON'T GET THIS! Rather "find" the originals online somewhere else!
Very well remastered making, I picked up my childhood again!
