Many of the old races will return. Humans, Dwarves, Elves, Orcs, Undead and Demons will all make an appearance. In addition to these six, Armored Princess features a new race, Pangolins. These lizard-like creatures have particularly bloodthirsty traditions and are among the most ancient races in the realm. Pangolin warriors are terrifying in combat and, as such, much sought after allies. They are difficult to control but those who are able to find common ground with this fearsome race will find them to be strong allies. In addition to the new race, Armored Princess boasts 5 new bosses, 10 new spells and a new level-cap of 50. There will also be new abilities and talents as well as about 50 new items.
One of the new abilities lets you transform your horse into a Pegasus, giving you the option to fly instead of gallop around the land. This way you can reach the almost inaccessible places of Endoria, including closed clearings and mountain plateaus high up in the skies that can't be reached via land or water.
All events on the overall map occur in real time and days change into nights. The change of the time of day is not just for decoration. Depending on the composition of your own troops and that of your enemy, some battles may be considerable easier in nighttime than in daytime.
