What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Codex Combat has been in active playtest since early 2023 and player feedback has been a guiding star throughout development. The core of the game is ready and fun, and as we approach full release it's more important than ever to hear your voice and make sure we're heading in the right direction.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Codex Combat is planned for a full release by early April 2026”

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

“We plan to make the game a smoother experience with a focus on player experience and improved gameplay content. New gameplay elements such as spells and relics may be added, and existing gameplay content will be balanced, changed, or pruned in order to improve the experience.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Codex Combat is fully playable as a complete gameplay experience. You can play the entire game singleplayer or online, with a wide variety of sigils, spells, relics, and heroes to pick from and use. Many art assets are a work in progress, but the look of the game is complete.”

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

“We are not planning on changing the price when we leave early access.”

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

“We're looking for player feedback on what is fun, what is working, and what isn't. We have a discord where we'd love to talk to players and discuss how to make the game the best it can be!”

About This Game

Create a legendary spellbook to battle history's greatest mages in this arcane autobattler! Pick a hero, fill your codex with powerful sigils, cast mighty spells, discover ancient relics, and fulfill your destiny in this turn-based online PvP arena.

Traverse the dungeons of the Codex, a book told to grant wishes to those brave enough to bring out its awesome power. Fight rival mages in their own conquests for power through its winding halls, battling them in asynchronous PvP combat. Experience a unique story every time you explore within the deep echoes of the Codex's dungeon!

Fill your spellbook with elemental Sigils that call upon epic power from the dungeon's past. Combine them to make them stronger and to transform them so you can pivot your strategy on the fly!

Discover unique, powerful relics to further enhance your build and empower your elemental affinity. Call upon the strength of the elements to secure your victory!
