Century: Age Of Ashes Release Date & Baby Dragons Shown
A new trailer for Century: Age of Ashes was revealed at Gamescom 2021, showing off the game's intense PvP dragon combat and giving the title a new release date. The game was first announced at the 2020 Game Awards show followed by another trailer in March of this year that showed off the game's classes and gameplay while announcing an April release date. However, the developers decided to delay the game following Age of Ashes' second beta earlier this year to focus on fixes and improvements based on the feedback from testers.
Century: Age of Ashes features PvP battles in various modes of 3v3 to 6v6 dogfights. Every player controls their own dragon and rider, soaring around an arena at breakneck speeds while trying to blast opponents out of the sky using each dragon's unique powers and abilities. Each player can choose their preferred class, each with a specific dragon and power, along with two abilities that can be selected based on the player's strategy.
The latest trailer for Playwing's multiplayer dragon-fest was just shown at Gamescom 2021 alongside games from Xbox, Ubisoft, Activision, EA, & More, giving viewers another look at the game's visuals and gameplay and announcing a new release date of November 18, 2021. Most of the trailer is dedicated to showing the fast-paced dragon combat players will experience when the game launches later this year. Aside from the intense combat, the trailer boasts the game's detailed graphics, giving an in-game look at the high-quality dragons, environments, and elemental effects. The trailer can now be viewed on the PlayCentury YouTube channel.

Another interesting development from the game that hasn't been shown before takes place at the very end of the trailer for those who stuck around, giving a brief glimpse of a baby dragon for a few moments.
