Utgard is a land that was sometimes recognized as the world and sometimes only as a fortress located in Jotunheim. Regardless, it was a place inhabited by Ice Giants. In the game, Utgard will replace Jotunheim. With this realm, you will introduce Ice Giants to the game, which players with an alliance will be able to recruit into their armies. They will be helpful in the next battle in which your army will take part, giving you a significant bonus to strength. —description from the publisher
