Expeditions: Rome places you in the role of a young Legatus whose quest for justice begins after the murder of your father by an unknown political rival. Forced to flee the heart of Rome, you find yourself leading military campaigns to suppress a Greek rebellion, gradually honing your skills on the battlefield and rising through the ranks to become a figure both respected and feared. Set against a richly detailed historical backdrop, the game takes you across diverse regions such as the sunlit coasts of Greece, the dense forests of Gaul, and the expansive territories of North Africa.
