BOSWORTH FIELD, 1485

LEGENDS COLLECTION 1.0 / FIRST DROP

Richard III woke early on August 22nd 1485, after a fitful sleep, tormented by his demons.

The day ahead would decide the future of his crown, his kingdom and his dynasty. Since Richard had snatched the throne from his nephew Edward V, he had eliminated every enemy who crossed him. The last man standing in the way of total mastery was a Welsh exile called Henry Tudor.

But at Bosworth, Richard gambled and lost. Abandoned by a key ally, he was cut down on the field, and his body taken to be slung in a shallow grave. In his place, Henry Tudor collected the crown - and the kingdom. The Plantagenets were over. The future was Tudor.
