Today CDV launched the official Web site for Glory of the Roman Empire, the upcoming Roman-themed city building game. Visitors to the site will be treated to a variety of information about the game, including key features, screenshots and renders. The official site is located at www.glory-of-rome.com.

CDV Software Entertainment USA has signed an agreement with Enlight Software to co-publish the empire-building title, Glory of the Roman Empire. The game, in development for PC by Haemimont Games, is scheduled to ship to North American retail outlets in June.

Glory of the Roman Empire is an empire-building simulation set during the height of the glorious Roman Empire. In the game, the player assumes the roles of city planner, governor, and military leader. Successful players will need planning skills, economic savvy and -- should those fail -- military might. Glory of the Roman Empire will challenge gamers to grow a small village into a thriving community through trade with neighbors, while also expanding and defending its borders through more militaristic means. Players will need to focus on the physical and emotional health of the citizenry; as villagers age and mature under strong leadership, they contribute to the development of more advanced societies and larger cities. More than 30 missions based in 11 historically inspired towns will immerse players in the historical aspects of the Roman Empire.

CDV Software Entertainment AG, one of the leading German publishers and distributors of computer and video games, today concluded an important agreement with Enlight Software on the development and global marketing of three PC games including Glory of the Roman Empire.
