Plot

This article needs an improved plot summary. (March 2012)

There are two campaigns in the game, a prologue with only one chapter, and the main story, spanning several chapters. In the prologue, the player takes the role of Septimus Sulla, heir to one of the Roman families that ruled in Britannia south of Hadrian's Wall. The prologue details Septimus' rise to power and eventual descent into madness.

In the main campaign, the player takes over the role of William Pendragon, son of the once and future King Arthur. Arthur lies mortally stricken by a magical curse and several of the figures of Arthurian legend are missing when William steps up to unite the provinces that once made up Arthur's kingdom, fight back the Fomorians unleashed by the Witch Queen Morgawse from the Orkney Islands and find a way to heal his father.

As in the previous game, other heroes join the army of William and, eventually, a second army led by the sorceress Morgana Le Fay becomes available as William allows her to search in the name of King Arthur for her mentor Merlin, who was kidnapped by the enchantress Lady Nimue. Over the course of the game, Septimus Sulla attacks from the North.

King Arthur II: Dead Legions

An expansion pack King Arthur II: Dead Legions was released on the same day in North America, while it was released in Japan on September 7, 2012.
