In between missions you can watch (up to 50 minutes of) TV footage from The History Channel's documentaries on Rome.
Additionally, the story of Marcus Aurelius is completely voice-acted as well.
Gameplay is similar to Slitherine's previous game Legion Arena : You control your armies in real time on a 3D map.
There is no resource gathering or city building, but at the end of every battle you are given points which can be used to purchase new units and upgrade surviving units which you bring along to the next battle.
The game features 14 different campaigns portraying over a 100 different battles.
There are 20 different types of units which can all be customized with different skills and clothing.
The PSP version features some bonus missions taken from Legion Arena: Cult of Mithras in which you play as the Celts.
Both the PSP and Windows version include multiplayer modes, but the Playstation 2 version lacks this.
About PlayStation 2
The PlayStation 2 (2000) is the best-selling game console in history, with a library exceeding 9,000 titles that spans everything from budget shovelware to genre-defining classics. That massive volume means PS2 collecting is accessible and affordable overall, but a handful of low-print-run RPGs and cult titles have become genuinely expensive — a common pattern once a console's original audience grows up with disposable income.
Gamevaro tracks History Channel: Great Battles of Rome for PlayStation 2 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding History Channel: Great Battles of Rome to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS2 release dates back to 2007.
