Swords & Soldiers II is joining Affordable Space Adventures as one of the Wii U eShop’s more expensive titles. Last week, Ronimo Games confirmed that its game will cost $19.99 / €18.99 / £16.99.

The studio has since weighed in on Swords & Soldiers II’s pricing decision, and has explained why they feel it’s appropriate for the market. Read on below for their comments.

Swords & Soldiers II is a self-funded passion project, created with a lot of care and craftmanship in over 3 years of development. The whole game has been built from the ground up to support the new and amazing hand animated art style and kickass new gameplay features, such as:

– Two completely new factions and one upgraded classic faction, adding lots of new units, spells and buildings.
– the Custom Army feature, allowing players to build their own army out of over 45 elements.
– Multiplayer mode where each player has their own screen, fully utilizing the Wii U gamepad.
– Epic and ridiculous narrated storyline with sidequests and minigames and over 40 challenging bonus objectives to complete.

There should be room for bigger, better and higher quality indie games. We feel Swords & Soldiers II is such a game and the price is a reflection of that.
