You’re seeing the players of our Alpha game. We’re very thankful to them for supporting us during our very successful Kickstarter and early-supporter campaigns, and now they are putting the game through its early steps and providing feedback.

Unfortunately, not. While it is great to be on Steam, it also means we can no longer sell early access without becoming and open early access game. If we find a way, we will be sure to advertise it. Until then please wish-list us and you’ll not miss out when we final release the full game.

We always stated that we would release the game “when it’s done”. We are aiming for this to be on the 1st of September 2020, but that ultimately depends on the feedback we’ll get from our community and our own evaluation. We don’t want to produce a game that is soon forgotten.

We aim for a closed Beta for our early supporters/backers sometime in mid-Dec 2019. It’ll be like an early Christmas present.

There are three playable factions in the game: Rusviet, the Polania Republic and the Saxony Empire. Each with over a dozen individual units, three playable heroes and different playstyles.

Here you can find monthly DevBlog posts with behind-the-scenes material. Unfortunately, the exact date of blog release varies each month depending on what’s going on within the office and when content is ready for release. We'll try to upload the highlight to this Steam community.

Iron Harvest takes place in the World of 1920+. It is an alternate version of our own world created by Polish artist Jakub Różalski. In the early 20th century, tradition clashes with progress, and the world is still full of mysteries and secrets. Check out the artwork that inspires our games aesthetic here.

Iron Harvest and Scythe are both inspired by “World of 1920+” by Jakub Rozalksi. BUT there are different Units and Characters in our lore. The story is independent and not necessarily related to 1920+ and not related to Scythe. Regardless we like the board game and have fun playing it as well!

We like the Company of Heroes approach: Make a great game, release small updates like new maps or maybe a mini campaign for free and then sell big add-ons with new factions and new story campaigns. So long as the players want them, this is what we’ll do.

At the time to writing, it is too early to say. But we are aiming for the game to run on your machine if it is up to 5-6 years old, once the game comes out.

Three playable factions with over 40 unit types and 9 heroes. Three singleplayer campaigns with an overarching story (21 missions). Singleplayer & Co-op skirmish matches & challenge maps. Competitive multiplayer (ranked matches, leagues). Free DLCs & Updates.

We are an award-winning independent game-developer from Bremen, Germany. We successfully released three Kickstarter games in the last five years. Funded in the year 2000, KINGArt has developed over 40 games up to this point for all major platforms.

We want to add a map editor so you can make your own. Right now, it's still too early so we can't promise anything.

We are committed to Steam and GoG on PC, PS, Xbox and we’re looking into Linux and Mac versions. Any other platforms will depend on what our publisher decides.

We plan for a robust in-game ping and chat system, but VoIP isn’t a priority because there are many great 3rd party options, such as Discord and TeamSpeak. We encourage you to use this Discord to find players and use our voice channels.

There are already several options to customize your graphics settings and we’ll be adding more with future releases.

Just click once to place and hold the button to rotate the building to the desired orientation.

We are happy that Deep Silver has agreed to publish Iron Harvest. Deep Silver understands us and has had a lot of previous success with crowdfunded games, such as Kingdom Come: Deliverance, Wasteland 2 and Pathfinder: Kingmaker. With their support, there is now a possibility for more content, more platforms and even a level editor!

You are welcome to stream, make video content, review and take screen captures of Iron harvest so long as you make it clear to the audience that this game in still in alpha development.

We have an Iron Harvest wiki here. It is updated by our fans as the game develops. Feel free to contribute and refer to it from game-play questions.

While nothing is confirmed, we are working on how to best implement cosmetics in-game.

We are aware of attempts to use our trailer and art material for unlicensed games with no association to us. We will investigate these, and we appreciate you keeping an eye out.

It doesn’t. It’s just a game and we offer no judgement on real world factions, people or events. Out of respect to the broad range of players interested in Iron Harvest, we want to keep our community politically neutral. Please do not discuss or voice opinion on recent political events. You are welcome to discuss the politics surrounding the time of Iron harvest, ideally in a “what-if?” style, but please do not comment on modern politics.

We will update this list frequently and of course if you have other questions please feel free to ask.
