Northgard: Definitive Edition — lead a Viking clan to new lands
Northgard by Shiro Games is a real-time strategy born from a love of Norse mythology and the spirit of the first settlers. You lead a Viking clan that has landed on the mysterious new continent of Northgard to tame its harsh lands, earn fame and write their names into the sagas. It's a compact yet deep RTS where it's not just warriors that matter, but food, wood, winters and the smart distribution of your people.
Colonisation step by step
The map is divided into zones, and every new territory has to be earned: cleared, settled and developed. You decide where to send colonists — to the forest for timber, to the fields for food, to the mines for iron, or to the ruins for knowledge. Expansion costs resources and people, so each new holding is a considered choice rather than a mindless land grab.
Brutal winters decide everything
Your main rival in Northgard isn't just an enemy clan — it's nature itself. When winter arrives, food and firewood consumption spikes, and the cold can cripple a poorly prepared settlement. If you haven't stocked up in advance, your Vikings will start to starve and freeze. The rhythm of the seasons is what gives every match its tension: summer for growth, winter for survival.
Clans with their own character
Northgard features several clans, and each plays differently. Some excel at trade, others at war, while still others lean into faith, research or hunting. Your clan choice shapes your style: you can push for a military victory, hoard wealth, gather fame through great deeds, or uncover Northgard's secrets through knowledge. Multiple paths to victory keep every match feeling fresh.
Single-player campaigns and battles with friends
The game offers a story campaign, skirmishes against the AI, and multiplayer battles. In single-player you learn the mechanics and follow your clan's tale, while multiplayer tests your strategies against live opponents. Online matches run at a completely different pace: quick decisions, diplomacy and reading your rival's moves all become crucial.
What's in the Definitive Edition
This Northgard: Definitive Edition bundles the base game together with extra content in a single package. You get an expanded way to discover the world of Northgard without buying everything piece by piece — a convenient starting point for newcomers and returning players alike.
How Steam Gift delivery works
Northgard: Definitive Edition is delivered as a Steam Gift. After payment, our bot adds you as a friend, sends the gift, and then removes itself — you don't need to confirm a trade or take any extra steps. Steam Guard isn't required to receive the gift. Keep two conditions in mind: your account region must match the gift's region, and the game shouldn't already be in your library. Delivery is handled calmly and carefully.
Who will love it
Northgard suits players who enjoy thoughtful strategies with resource management and slow-burn yet tense development. If this style clicks with you, check out the roguelite city-builder Against the Storm with a similar balance of survival and expansion, the harsh management sim Frostpunk, and the sweeping historical strategy Total War: THREE KINGDOMS.
Why buy it as a gift
A Steam Gift adds Northgard: Definitive Edition straight to your Steam library with all updates, cloud saves and achievements — just like a normal purchase. The transparent our bot delivery keeps things simple: the gift arrives, the bot leaves, and the game stays with you for good.
