The game does take history into effect: Saladin and Richard I of England are present as the game's AI characters for the player to side with or against. Unlike the original Stronghold, however, there are four separate, linear campaigns. The entire campaign, as well as the "Conquest Trail" game mode, takes place during the Third Crusade. The focus was radically influenced by fortification and siege technologies developed during the Crusades.
The gameplay is similar to the first game, but with enhanced RTS elements and with all maps and missions set entirely in the Middle East during the Middle Ages. The second installment, Stronghold: Crusader, was released in September 2002.
