Heart of Russia - Villages

Whenever there’s a mention of architecture in Russia, our minds instantly produce images of great cities, such as Moscow or St. Petersburg. However, there’s much more to it than that. You have to peek behind the curtains and look beyond all of this in order to see the details, which in the end creates a compact and unforgettable experience. One of those details is without a doubt the local villages which you will be able to see in the upcoming Heart of Russia DLC.

The charm of Russian villages is based on historical architecture and a disproportional system of streets surrounded by different styles of structures. While some of these buildings have completely moved on from the classical izba style over the years, you can still witness numerous modern examples of these typical countryside dwellings while passing by. You may also appreciate one of their special features - colorful patterns on the outside walls.

Furthermore, while most of the structures have managed to withstand the hands of time to this day, there are some which were not so fortunate and started to progressively crumble. Yet even ruins and aged buildings can sometimes prove to be an addition to the general beauty of certain places.

This is only a fraction of what is to come with the Heart of Russia update and you can look forward to more information in the future. For now, make sure to add the upcoming map expansion to your Steam Wishlist and you will be able to always stay in touch with the latest news!
