Bleeding CoolGavin SheehanMar 20238/10It's no longer about surviving on your own; it's now time to make a stand against a greater enemy, as Ubisoft has taken the franchise in a new direction with The Settlers: New Allies. One that may very well breathe new life into it for years to come.

SoftpediaAndrei DumitrescuFeb 20237.5/10The Settlers: New Allies has a good core loop that, unfortunately, lacks a solid connection with the series' history. There’s too much military action and not enough focus on delivering products to citizens. The land-claiming concept is interesting but under-used.

PC GamerPhil IwaniukMar 202360/100A slow-paced and overly simplistic take on city building and war waging, but blessed with wholesome looks and a relaxing atmosphere.

GamingTrendJackson LustbergApr 202340/100The Settlers: New Allies is a game with great presentation and poor execution, It's $60, but I would struggle to recommend it at even half that price given how lacking in content it is. The gameplay is lagging heavily. Although tightly woven together, it doesn't really matter when there's so little to play with. It's like being in a sandbox with no toys or tools.

WccftechChris WrayApr 20235/10The Settlers: New Allies isn't quite the return to Settlers that fans of the franchise would want. Shallow across all areas, with basic city-building and very basic strategy elements, held together by an average narrative. It's not a bad game, but it's also not good.
