Development roadmap

What is already built, what we are working on and what is planned. We do not promise dates — plans change as we learn from playtests.

Now

In progress
New core and engine

Moving the game to a new Rust core and its own engine: the same rules on the server and for the player, more warriors in battle and better graphics.
In progress
Models and animations

New models of warriors, armour, weapons and horses, hundreds of combat and everyday animations, soft fabrics and mounted troops on the new WebGPU engine.
In progress
Servers for local battles

Every battle is simulated on the server and the game only shows it: fair fights without cheats and thousands of warriors on one field.

Planned
PC launcher and other platforms

First a launcher for Windows, then Mac, Steam, the browser and phones. One world and one account on every device.
Planned
Settlement building mode

Planning and constructing villages, castles and towns at the level of the best city-builders.
Planned
Economy and caravans

Resources, production chains, markets, money and caravans along the roads.
Planned
Kingdoms and diplomacy

Houses, vassals, kingdoms, votes, treaties, legitimate reasons for war and the Good Name system.
Planned
New trailer and closed playtest

A new trailer with improved graphics and models, and the first closed playtest for subscribers.

Planned
Public alpha

Opening the world to everyone: first seasons, balance from real play, and feedback from the community.

Done
Game design and world lore

The full design of the game: Houses, settlements, economy, armies, politics, sieges, the law, and the lore of the world with eight cultures and hundreds of unit types.
Done
Living world prototype

A streamed world with terrain, rivers, forests, roads, seasons, day and night, weather and fog of war, running in the browser.
Done
Massive battles

Thousands of soldiers per side with archers, infantry and cavalry, formations, orders and hero control.
Done
Sieges and naval battles

Walls, towers, siege engines, animated construction and the first ships on the water.
Done
Online prototype

A shared world where lords see each other on the map and fight real battles together, with server-side verification of every result.
Done
Character creator

A Bannerlord-like editor for the body and face of your character, working on PC and phone.
Done
Banner editor

Your house standard, shield and horse caparison with your arms: fields, charges of eight peoples, dyes and trims. Every coat of arms in the world is unique.
