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?

“We're building a unique blend of fast-paced action RPG combat, large-scale army battles, and tactical deployment—something that hasn't really been done quite like this before. Early Access gives us a chance to fine-tune this ambitious mix with your input.

Balancing hero progression, army customization, and battlefield chaos takes real-world feedback, and we want to make sure the experience is both deep and fun. We also want to work with our players to shape quest content, difficulty, and performance at scale.

If you're excited to help define the future of this hybrid genre, your voice will truly make an impact.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Depending on the level of ambition we are looking at 1-2 years approximately.”

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

“We're planning to introduce multiplayer support, where each player progresses independently on the map—racing to be the first to reach the final objective.
We're also working on expanding Siege Warfare, allowing players to either defend or assault castles in large-scale, strategic battles.
In addition, we’re developing new maps and biomes to expand replayability and offer fresh tactical challenges.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current Early Access version features a full Campaign Mode that takes you on an epic journey—from commanding a modest squad to leading a massive army in a climactic castle assault.
You’ll also experience a roguelike map traversal system, where each run offers a unique path, randomized encounters, and new challenges every time you play.
Battle across diverse environments, including dense forests, open plains, eerie swamps, and frozen tundras—each with their own tactical considerations and visual flair.

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

“Depending on how much new content is added there may be a slight increase in price along the way.”

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

“We are using a Discord channel and the Steam forum for additional input and ideas from the community.”

About This Game

Raise your banner in a brutal world where only strength, steel, and strategy will decide your fate. Lead legendary heroes, forge unstoppable armies, and crush your enemies across epic campaigns and large-scale battlefields.

Knighthood: Dawn of Heroes is a true medieval fantasy warfare game. Hero-driven combat, massive battles, dynamic campaigns, and a living sandbox world where you create cinematic clashes or chaotic wars — the battlefield is yours to command.

⚔️ Campaign Mode
In Knighthood, every campaign is a test of your will to survive and conquer.

You begin alone — a lone hero armed with a small purse of gold and nothing else.

Every battle is a chance to grow stronger. Victory earns you gold — gold that you can spend to raise an army, train new units, and prepare for the wars ahead. But as your army grows, so does the challenge. Each new enemy force is stronger and larger than the last.

If you are defeated, you will rebuild if you can — unless you choose Hardcore. In Hardcore, there are no second chances. Every choice you make, every soldier you recruit, every risk you take carries the weight of survival or destruction.

Survive through fierce battles and you'll face the might of each faction's strongest armies. Defeat them, and your war for domination continues against new and even greater enemies.

Campaign Mode in Knighthood is not just about building an army — it's about building a legend.

🏰 Sandbox Mode

Sandbox Mode in Knighthood is your world to shape.

Create your battlefields, design your wars, and bring any scene you imagine to life. Raise hills, carve valleys, plant forests, or wipe the land clean — the terrain is fully in your hands. Set the weather to a calm sunset, a raging storm, or a dark and misty battlefield.

Place any units you want, in any number you want. Form great armies, small skirmishes, or massive sieges. Shape the sides however you choose — pit the Empire against the Warborn, the Undead against the Rebels, or mix factions for pure chaos.

Whether you want cinematic clashes, epic last stands, or brutal free-for-alls, Sandbox Mode lets you craft the wars you've always wanted to see. Watch your armies collide, witness heroes rise and fall, and create unforgettable battles.

There are no rules here. Only the ones you make.

This game is a passion project created by a small studio. Your feedback, ideas, and opinions are always welcome. We are actively listening to our community and are committed to making Knighthood: Dawn of Heroes the best it can be.
