What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We're bringing Temtem: Swarm into Early Access so that we can work with our amazing community to help shape the game's future by gathering your invaluable feedback and suggestions. We’ve already got plans for what we want a 1.0 to look like, and we’ll be adding content throughout EA, but we’re sure we'll also learn along the way and discover new exciting features to add too!

The bullet heaven genre really works well with EA because of all the fine-tuning and tweaking that needs to happen to refine gameplay, balance the world, and ensure Temtem: Swarm is the most exciting and engaging it can be. We’re looking forward to that challenge!

This isn’t our first Early Access rodeo: Temtem's successful EA journey demonstrated our commitment to community-driven development. During the EA period, we actively listened to player feedback, implementing over 35 patches that included numerous features, improvements, bug fixes, and significant gameplay changes suggested by the community. This collaborative approach ensured that Temtem evolved into the engaging and polished experience it is today.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect Temtem: Swarm's Early Access journey to last around a year. During this time, we'll be dedicated to refining the game based on your feedback, ensuring it's the most enjoyable experience possible. Our goal is to introduce all the playable Tems, Maps, and Techniques that we already have planned while also incorporating your feedback before Temtem: Swarm leaves EA.”

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

“In Temtem: Swarm's full version we plan to feature additional content, including:

  • Solo Mode and Co-Op for 2 & 3 Players
  • 13 Playable Temtem with unique Skill Trees for each
  • 9 Maps/Arenas
  • 18 Minibosses & 9 Final Bosses, each with unique movesets
  • New in-game Event types
  • 57 Gears
  • 140 Techniques Total (26 Active, 57 Passive, 57 Synergies)
  • Unlockable Temtem Variations - Lumas & Umbras
  • Challenge Modes
  • In-game Tempedia with info on all Tems
  • The full roster of 165 Temtem as part of the Swarm, in the form of Mini-Bosses/Final Bosses, or as playable Tems.
  • 830 Kudos (in-game achievements)
  • 130+ Steam Achievements

We're also committed to refining the game's balance, polish, and overall experience based on your input. Together, we'll create a Temtem adventure that exceeds your expectations for a 1.0 full release.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Temtem: Swarm's Early Access version offers a comprehensive and immersive experience, featuring everything outlined in the game's description. Here’s a list that can be slightly compared to the one above:

  • Solo Mode and Co-Op for 2 & 3 Players
  • 7 Playable Temtem with unique Skill Trees for each
  • 5 Maps/Arenas
  • 10 Minibosses & 5 Final Bosses, each with unique movesets
  • 5 in-game Event types
  • 37 Gears
  • 77 Techniques Total (7 Active, 35 Passive, 35 Synergies)
  • 342 Kudos (in-game achievements)
  • Steam Achievements

The planned differences between EA and Full Release can be seen comparing the two lists above, but as we go through this journey with you all, and gather feedback, we could find more features to add!”

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

“We currently have no plans to increase the price of Temtem: Swarm after it exits Early Access. However, we reserve the right to adjust the price at a later date if significant updates or additional content are introduced beyond the original plans.”

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

“We value your input and believe that community feedback is essential to shaping the future of Temtem: Swarm. We'll actively engage with the community through our official Discord server, Steam forums, and social media channels. Feel free to share your thoughts, suggestions, and bug reports. Your insights will help us refine gameplay, balance the game, and ensure that Temtem: Swarm is the best possible experience for everyone.”

Roadmap

About This Game

Temtem: Swarm combines the minimalistic gameplay of classic survivor games with Temtem's strategy-based combat mechanics, giving you the potential to develop a multi-faceted strategy in a vibrant environment alongside creatures you already know and love.


Up to 3 friends can face relentless swarms of Tems together. Strategize, share resources(or don’t!), and take down increasingly more powerful bosses. Maximize your attack potential by coordinating gears and skills with precision timing, creating overpowered synergies. The ultimate test of teamwork and survival awaits!


Conquer each stage by defeating challenging mini-bosses and formidable stage bosses with devastating abilities. Strategize, pivot, and prove your skills as you face off against powerful Tems like Gharunder, Yowlar, and Nessla. Only the boldest will emerge victorious - so gear up to defeat them and clear every hand-crafted stage before the swarm overwhelms you!


You have incredible power at your command. Choose when to tap into your Tem’s full potential and unleash devastating attacks, defensive abilities, or power-ups that help you and your friends clear the map in one fell swoop. With great power comes great responsibility...are you up to the task?


Adaptation is the key to surviving and your Tems are built for it! Collect XP after defeating enemies to level up, grow stronger, and unlock your final evolution. Each evolution brings massive power-ups to your skills and strength. Are you prepared to evolve and endure in this exciting adventure?


Collect and capture every available Tem to unlock their powerful Traits and unique Ultimate abilities. Experience the magic of every Tem and master them in both solo and co-op modes to rise to the challenge!


Getting pummeled by Oceara's punishing attacks? No problem - when the going gets tough, the tough get going! Online co-op has Ghost Mode — Support your friends until they can safely revive you and rejoin the fight. Defeat isn’t game over, fight on in Ghost Mode!
