Release facts

The official Steam store lists August 13, 2026 as the Early Access release date. Lantto Games is the developer and Hooded Horse is the publisher. This date describes the start of public Early Access, not a future version 1.0 launch date.

What Early Access means

The store describes the current version as fully playable with the advertised core features. The team expects Early Access to last roughly a year, but explicitly allows that schedule to change as feedback and development reshape priorities.

Planned growth and feedback

Plans include stronger procedural generation and additional buildings, resources, chains, quests, biomes, and technologies. The developers use Discord and the Steam forums for suggestions and bug reports, while official Steam news remains the clearest release-history channel.
