Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Age of Magellan: Sail the Entire Planet is an ambitious historical sailing and exploration game focused on long-distance navigation, global exploration, and Age of Discovery-era seafaring. Early Access allows us to continue expanding and refining core systems with community feedback while the game is actively playable. We want players to help shape exploration mechanics, navigation systems, balancing, world simulation, and long-term progression as development continues.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We currently expect the game to remain in Early Access for approximately 1–2 years. Development time may change depending on community feedback and the scope of planned features.”

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

“We plan for the full version to expand significantly on the existing foundation. Planned additions include more history based missions (eg, fighting the barbary coast corsairs), richer combat (eg, fighting multiple ships), deeper trading and survival systems, expanded ship management, additional exploration content, improved AI and encounters, more historical content, quality-of-life improvements, and overall polish.

We plan to include a new and original musical soundtrack to the game and we also plan to continue improving the user interface, onboarding/tutorial systems, visual presentation, audio, and balancing throughout development.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version is already playable and includes core sailing and exploration gameplay. Players can navigate a large-scale world inspired by the historical Age of Discovery, sail across oceans, use celestial navigation mechanics, visit ports, manage their ship, and explore the world freely.

Many systems are still under active development, and players should expect bugs, unfinished content, balancing issues, placeholder elements, and ongoing changes during Early Access.”

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

“We may gradually raise the price as major features and content are added during development. Players who join during Early Access will be supporting the continued development of the game.”

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

“Community feedback will play an important role during development. We plan to listen closely to player suggestions, bug reports, balancing feedback, and historical discussions in order to improve the game over time.

Development updates, patches, and new features will be shaped in part by community feedback gathered through Steam discussions and player testing during Early Access.”

About This Game

Age of Magellan is an open-world sailing game set on a near-scale model of the Earth, built from real coastline data with over 11,000 real cities to find and dock at. Two ways to play: follow Magellan's voyage in the campaign, or take a ship of your own in Winds of Discovery and sail wherever the wind allows.

The Magellan Campaign

Five chapters from Lisbon to the far side of the world. Prove yourself on the Portuguese coast, round the Cape of Good Hope, reach India and Malacca, then turn your back on Portugal and sail for Spain. Cross the Atlantic, face down a mutiny on the Patagonian coast, thread the strait that will bear your name, and cross the Pacific on short rations. At Mactan, Magellan goes ashore for the last time, and you fight that battle blade in hand. Then Pigafetta takes the helm to bring the Victoria home and close the first circle of the Earth.

Winds of Discovery

Start as a courier running grain from Lisbon down the coast and work up through twelve commissions, from local merchants to the King's own charter, rising through ten ranks with the Portuguese crown. Between jobs the planet is open. Set your own bearing, pick your own port, fish, trade and explore, and the fog lifts wherever you point the bow.

Navigate Like It's 1500

Your position is only as good as your last fix. Sight the sun by day or Polaris by night, set the horizon, align the index arm and take a reading to find yourself again. Sail through a storm out of sight of land and you lose your position until you do.

Wind, Storms and Supplies

Trim your sails to the wind and point of sail. Storm regions around the world will shred your canvas, batter your hull and tear your nets, so furl in time. Carry enough food and water, watch for scurvy and sickness, and keep the crew fed and paid or they will take the ship from you.

Real-Time Naval Combat

Pirates hunt the sea lanes. Fight in real time, where wind, angle and reload timing decide the duel. Bring your port or starboard broadside to bear and hammer their hull and rigging. Ram a weakened enemy, send your boarding party across, and fight her crew and captain on deck, man to man, with sword, block, lunge and dodge. Win, and her hold is yours.

Five Ships

Sloop, Caravel, Xebec, Carrack and Galleon, each with its own crew, cannon count, cargo capacity and handling. Buy the ship your voyage needs at the shipwright.
