What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We've worked on Kingdoms for some time already and, while we feel that it's playable and exciting in its state. There are still advanced processes and mechanics missing for it to become a full experience. By offering the game to a sizable audience before its conclusion, we can receive essential feedback to help us balance out the experience and make the final game the best it can possibly be.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“In order to create and polish the features that we have planned for the final version of Kingdoms Rise & Fall, we anticipate it being in Early Access for at least the rest of the calendar year.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to include a main campaign mode with scenarios from world history to play through. We plan to continue to add units, maps and buildings over time.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game has the following systems implemented: building and researching, combat and attack and defense mechanics, villager and soldiers working when idle, resource management, flora and fauna simulation, and production systems.””

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The game will be fully rounded, with a lot more content by the time it is released. As such, there will be a slight increase in the price.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Player feedback is the most important reason why we are releasing our game in Early Access! We will soon have a discord to let us know what you think of the game and help us shape it during development. You can also leave feedback on the Steam Community hub right here.”

Kingdoms Rise and Fall



An engrossing real-time strategy game with grand strategy elements that embarks players on an epic journey through various historical eras and beyond.



This sprawling game offers an in-depth experience that spans various historical eras, from the distant past to the far future.

In Kingdoms Rise and Fall there are:

Over 200 military units operating on the ground, sea, and air— from spearman to battleships to stealth bombers.
Over 80 buildings with upgrades and technologies that will take your kingdom from a small tribe to a modern society.
Almost a dozen maps including maps of Europe, the Pacific, and more!
Tough AI opponents who learn grow and fight their own unique ways.
Multiplayer using steam that allows up to 8 players to battle over the 10+ map

Players start with a humble Stone Age settlement. The game progresses through different ages, each offering unique challenges and opportunities. Players must gather resources, cultivate crops, develop tools, and advance their civilization. They'll evolve from primitive societies to global superpowers, equipped with modern technology like nuclear weapons, tanks, rockets, and towering skyscrapers.



Immersive 3D Maps

Explore immersive 3D maps with stunning visuals and various game modes, including barbarian survival, undead apocalypse, alien invasion, and real-time strategy battle royale.



Wildlife Encounters

Encounter a diverse array of animals during your hunts, including deer, giraffes, and elephants. Beware of formidable early-game creatures like bears and wolves.



Adaptive AI Opponents

Challenge intelligent AI opponents that adapt their strategies in every game you play. Watch as they expand their societies, conduct research, and upgrade their capabilities alongside you.



Historical Progression

Start with a humble Stone Age settlement and progress through different historical eras, including classical, Middle Ages, enlightenment, industrialization, and modernity.





Resource Management

Gather nearly 30 different resources, including luxury and strategic resources. Manage resource depletion, trade on the international market, and fight for vital resources.





Weather and Global Catastrophes

Experience natural disasters like hurricanes, tornadoes, and severe storms, affecting your empire's stability and resources.





Unit Variety

Control various units, from infantry to tanks, aircraft, and even spies, assassins, and snipers, each with unique strengths and roles. Units from all over the world and history are featured. Such as ninjas, samurai, hoplites, roman legions and more!




The Grand (RTS) Strategy Format

Kingdoms Rise and Fall stands out by blending traditional real-time strategy elements with the grand strategy format. Players are tasked with nurturing a small village into a thriving empire, while simultaneously dealing with a plethora of challenges that test their strategic prowess. These challenges include disease outbreaks, pandemics, barbarian invasions, and even supernatural occurrences like undead uprisings or alien invasions, depending on the chosen map or preferences.



Technological Advancements

Research plays a crucial role in the game's progression. Starting with rudimentary tools like clubs and spears, players gradually advance their civilizations by unlocking technologies such as iron and bronze making, gunpowder, nuclear missiles, and space travel. Each technological leap opens up new possibilities and units, significantly affecting the course of the game.



Happiness and Civil Unrest

Maintaining happiness among your citizens is paramount. Happiness can be gained by trading luxury resources or through other in-game means. However, it can be lost through defeats in battles, the death of soldiers, the demise of citizens, or the destruction of buildings. Civil unrest poses a constant threat and can spread through regions with distant buildings or units. Players must manage civil unrest carefully, especially when transitioning between different government systems and ideologies.

Multiplayer and Endless Possibilities

The game will soon support multiplayer matches for up to 8 players, allowing for intense competition and collaboration. There is no population or building limit, meaning you can develop expansive empires with thousands of buildings and units.
