Ubisoft "reinventing" The Settlers with Kingdoms of Anteria

But what, exactly, is it?

Ubisoft has quietly announced the next game in strategy series The Settlers: Kingdoms of Anteria.

Last night the company revealed the game with a CGI trailer that at first suggests some kind of MOBA, then hints at the city-building the franchise is known for.

We know little about the game, save it's in the works at The Settlers developer Blue Byte and is due out in 2014.

"By reinventing our approach to the franchise, The Settlers - Kingdoms of Anteria offers players a brand new experience full of new possibilities to explore," said Blue Byte's Christopher Schmitz.

"Without a doubt, this is the most innovative Settlers game we have ever created."
