Early Access Game

Get instant access and start playing; get involved with this game as it develops.

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?

“Broken Crown is already fully playable in its core systems, including base building, resource gathering, army recruitment, research, Fog of War, tactical combat, campaign missions, skirmish battles, survival gameplay, achievements, and save/load support.

We are choosing Early Access because we want to continue expanding the game together with the community. The main foundation is already in place, but we believe player feedback will be extremely valuable for improving balance, mission pacing, AI behavior, usability, and future content.

Early Access allows us to keep developing Broken Crown in a transparent way while involving RTS players directly in the growth of the game.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We currently expect Broken Crown to remain in Early Access for approximately 6 to 12 months.

This may change depending on player feedback, the amount of content added during development, and the level of polish required before the full release. Our goal is not to rush the process, but to continue improving the game with regular updates until it feels ready for a complete release.”

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

“During Early Access, we plan to expand Broken Crown with additional campaign missions, more maps, improved balance, AI refinements, quality-of-life improvements, and further polish based on community feedback.

We also intend to continue improving the overall experience with better mission flow, additional gameplay tuning, more strategic variety, and possible support for user-created content such as custom maps.

The core RTS experience is already present in the Early Access version, while the full version is planned to include more content, better balancing, additional polish, and a more complete campaign experience.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current Early Access version of Broken Crown is fully playable and includes the main RTS gameplay loop.

Players can build and expand a settlement, gather resources, recruit different unit types, research upgrades, progress through visual unit tiers, command armies in formation-based battles, explore maps with Fog of War, complete campaign missions, play skirmish battles, face survival challenges, unlock Steam achievements, and use save/load functionality.

The game already includes multiple systems such as worker management, base construction, defensive structures, tactical maps, minimap navigation, clickable notifications, veterancy, and large-scale battles with hundreds of units.

Some areas are still being expanded and refined, including additional missions, balance, AI behavior, usability, map variety, and overall polish.”

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

“We plan to launch Broken Crown in Early Access at a lower price than the final full release.

As the game grows with additional content, more campaign missions, new maps, improvements, and further polish, the price may increase gradually. Any price changes will reflect the amount of content and improvements added during development.”

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

“Community feedback will be an important part of Broken Crown’s Early Access development.

We plan to collect feedback through the Steam Community Hub, reviews, discussions, Discord, and social channels. Player feedback will help us improve balance, mission difficulty, AI behavior, usability, map design, and future content priorities.

We also plan to share development updates, patch notes, screenshots, progress reports, and upcoming plans so players can follow the evolution of the game and help shape its direction.

Our goal is to build Broken Crown together with RTS players who enjoy base building, tactical battles, army progression, and large-scale strategy gameplay.”

About This Game

Broken Crown is a fantasy real-time strategy game about building a kingdom, managing an economy and commanding armies across large-scale battles.

Choose between Humans and Orcs, experience the war through two different campaigns, fight in Skirmish, survive Endless battles, play online, or create your own battlefields with Map Studio and Steam Workshop.

Build. Expand. Command. Conquer.

Recruit different unit types, organize them into formations and lead your forces across the battlefield.

Use Square, Wedge, Circle and Wide formations to control how your army moves and approaches combat.

Develop your military, unlock stronger troops and use faction-specific units to reinforce the strengths of your army.

Humans favor disciplined and defensive forces, while Orcs bring a more aggressive approach to battle.

Every army needs a kingdom behind it.

Gather resources, construct buildings, expand your settlement and develop your military infrastructure before taking the fight to the enemy.

Protect important positions, secure resources and decide when to invest in your economy and when to prepare for war.

Play as Humans or Orcs and experience the conflict from two different perspectives.

Humans believe the Orcs have invaded their lands and fight to reclaim what was lost.

The Orcs, however, are fleeing a much greater threat and must decide whether survival will come through coexistence or conquest.

Broken Crown currently features 20 campaign missions, divided between:

  • 10 Human missions

  • 10 Orc missions

Campaign missions include defensive battles, resource objectives, convoy escorts, diplomacy, sieges, multiple commanders and a wide variety of environments.

Build your own maps directly inside Broken Crown with Map Studio.

Shape the battlefield, place resources, choose starting positions, decorate the environment and create maps for 2 to 8 players.

Custom maps can support up to 1,024 placed objects, giving creators plenty of room to build detailed battlefields. Pasted markdown

Publish your creations to Steam Workshop, download maps made by other players and expand your collection of battlefields.

And custom maps aren't limited to single-player matches.

Workshop maps can also be played in multiplayer.

If someone joins a lobby without the required map, they can subscribe to and download it before the match begins. The game verifies that every player has the same map version before allowing the match to start. Markdown incollato

Broken Crown includes several ways to play:

Campaign
Follow the Human and Orc storylines across handcrafted missions.

Skirmish
Build your base and fight AI opponents across standalone battlefields.

Endless
Develop your defenses and survive increasingly dangerous enemy waves.

Multiplayer
Create or join player-hosted matches, choose your faction and battle on official or Workshop maps.

Not every faction you encounter needs to be destroyed.

Some campaign missions feature neutral settlements with their own workers, buildings and economy.

Bring your King to their settlement and you may be able to form an alliance, bringing the village and its forces to your side. Pasted markdown

Between two campaigns, Skirmish, Endless, multiplayer and community-created maps, Broken Crown is designed to offer battles beyond the main story.
