Disciples II: Rise of the Elves expands the fantasy strategy series with the Elven Alliance as a fifth playable race. Its new campaign continues the Elven storyline, while the edition also retains all campaigns from the original game. That combination gives the elves a role in both the broader campaign selection and a dedicated continuation of their story.
Faction choice has a specific twist: the Elven tech tree lets players follow either the Noble or Wild Elves. The game also offers more than 200 individually animated unit types and over 100 spells, giving its strategic battles a broad roster of units and magic. For players who want to shape their own scenarios, an editor is included; 14 additional skirmish maps provide ready-made challenges as well.
Play is not confined to solo campaigns. The listing describes multiplayer over LAN, the Internet, or Hot-Seat, alongside single-player and co-op categories.
