Catan‘s official desktop iteration will be handled by USM – the same developers responsible for the splendid mobile version of the game that released in 2009. Don’t let that confuse you, though;this isn’t merely and up-rezzed port of a mobile game. Instead, Catan has been built from the ground up for desktop play. Expect full 3D graphics, two expansions (Seafarers and Cities and Knights), and even a new scenario editor to let you create and share your own islands online.
If you haven’t played Settlers of Catan before, this is a terrific game of building and bartering that really puts the “social” back in gaming. It’s sold 15 million copies of the physical game since it’s 1995 release for a reason, so be sure to keep Catan on your watchlist.
