Publisher 663 Games and developer Play2Chill S.A. have unveiled the PC demo for their ambitious survival city-builder Aztecs The Last Sun. Set against the backdrop of the rich and intricate Aztec civilization, the game invites players to step into the role of a leader tasked with preserving the legacy of this remarkable Mesoamerican culture. Combining complex city-building mechanics with immersive survival elements, the game promises a deep, historically inspired experience.

The demo introduces a variety of features designed to give players a taste of the full game. Among these are a quest system that includes both main and side objectives, along with cutscenes that lay the foundation of the story. Players can explore the game’s dynamic day and night cycles, which influence both visuals and gameplay, and benefit from a robust tutorial system that adapts to their progress, offering guidance when needed.

Gameplay unfolds across two distinct layers: city-building, where players manage and expand their settlements, and a strategic map for sending expeditions, exploring regions, and solving puzzles. Players will need to master logistic chains with 12 unique resources such as wood, gold, and cocoa, while navigating challenges like hunger, homelessness, and sickness within their population.

The demo also showcases new features, including a redesigned technology tree, an advanced tutorial system, and a multi-modular main temple. For added depth, a Blood Vessels mini-game and the Blood Zone introduce engaging mechanics with updated visuals and interactivity, further tying into the game’s thematic richness.

With its intricate mechanics, historical depth, and immersive gameplay, Aztecs The Last Sun offers players a unique opportunity to lead a civilization and make their mark in history. The PC demo provides a glimpse of the ambitious features that await in the full release.
