A new major patch for Airship: Kingdoms Adrift has been released and is now available for download on Steam. One of the major highlights of this update is the addition of new chapters that will bring the game's main story to its fitting conclusion.
Airship: Kingdoms Adrift is an airship trading and combat simulator developed by Revolution Industry, where you play as a skyfaring captain who is trying to get by in an era forged by peace. As the three warring factions: the Aecerlian Kingdom, the New Viridian Republic, and the Teutonic Confederation, agreed to a ceasefire, it is up to you to build your own mercantile empire worthy enough to become the central hub for trade. Although this may sound easy, the game will put you into situations that prove otherwise.
