Gameplay Reveal

One year ago at Summer Game Fest, we officially revealed Chronicles: Medieval to the world.

Since then, we’ve seen one topic come up again and again from our growing community: “What do the battles look like?” and “When will we see gameplay?”

We wanted our first proper gameplay reveal to be epic, and there felt like no better stage to return to than Summer Game Fest. So in case you missed the showcase, check out the brand-new gameplay reveal trailer here:

Our reveal gives you a first look at battles in Chronicles: Medieval, from infantry clashes and battlefield atmosphere to some of the larger-scale battles we’ve been building. And did you recognize the voice in the trailer? We’re super happy to announce: Lars Mikkelsen is portraying Johannes Gutenberg in Chronicles Medieval. He will narrate parts of the journey our players will go on, and we’ll be sharing a little more about him very soon.

‍
Battles and Lars Mikkelsen aren’t the only things we’re revealing today. We’re also excited to finally begin showcasing the Holy Roman Empire! While Chronicles: Medieval is heavily inspired by the era of the Hundred Years’ War, our game is not intended to be a strict historical recreation or a direct simulation of that conflict. Instead, our goal is to create a medieval sandbox inspired by politics, warfare, and tensions of the period, where players can write their own story.'

‍
Chronicles: Medieval extends beyond the familiar conflict between England and France. The Holy Roman Empire is a major part of our medieval Europe, and we wanted Summer Game Fest to also be the moment we finally shared the first glimpse into that side of the battlefield.To go with that, we’re also revealing an amazing new artwork focused on the Holy Roman Empire. And yes, of course we’ve prepared these as wallpapers, ready to decorate your screens! Get them here.

‍

We’ve seen all the discussions, questions, theories, and excitement from the community over the past year, and we truly appreciate all the support and patience while we worked toward this moment.

This is only the beginning. We’ve got more developer diaries, gameplay reveals, and deep dives about Chronicles: Medieval planned for you in the months to come. So don’t forget to join our Official Discord and be part of the conversation!

We'll be back soon with more from the team. Until then - keep your vassals close, and your lord closer.
