Home to thousands from all over, Rome is the product of blood, money and deception.
With war and violence ingrained in its citizens, Rome can be both a beautiful place to live
and extremely dangerous depending on where you go and who you interact with.
- The year is 48 BCE, Julius Caesar has just defeated Pompey and reigns over Rome
- Rome is 3.81 miles square and a 1:1 scale model created referencing a mixture of ancient and modern maps, layouts and roads
- While we like to stay historically accurate with our lore, we also believe in creative freedom and the rule of cool. The history of Rome for Shadows of Glory is unique and inspired by actual history and the events through Rome’s empire.
Player vs. Player on Rome
Catch Rome on a busy day and the Colosseum might have far more than 20 players inside its walls defending the arena floor. This is different than queueing up for a battle in the Colosseum through the Battle Select window. Below is a list of PvP options while on Rome and not actually queued in a Colosseum battle.
- Players can 1 vs. 1 duel on Rome by using the /duel feature
- Players can flag themselves for PvP on Rome allowing 2 flagged players to fight without agreeing to a duel
- The Colosseum is a PvP area, this means that anyone who’s inside and standing on the arena floor is flagged for PvP
- Duels and all forms of PvP on Rome are to the death, you will respawn nearby
- Dueling and PvP on Rome do not gain experience, and you can’t loot other players corpses
“The sacrifices of the many gave birth to the most beautiful and powerful city in the world.”
