Kingmakers, one of Steam’s most anticipated games, has been postponed in a surprising and disappointing move for gamers. This ambitious game, which garnered significant attention with its idea of using modern warfare technologies against medieval armies, has announced its indefinite delay just days before its release.
Kingmakers to Arrive Later Than Expected
Developed by independent studio Redemption Road Games, Kingmakers has been one of the most-added games on Steam wishlists for months thanks to its trailers and unique theme. It was poised to be the highlight of October, a busy month for the gaming world. Fans were eagerly awaiting the early access release, which was expected to be released on October 8th.
While the studio promised a definitive release date, it unfortunately stated that no specific date could be given for this delay. This has naturally caused concern among eagerly awaited players. Kingmakers, inspired by the question, “What would it be like to fight against massive armies in the past with today’s weapons?”, stands out with its intriguing concept.
Players control a character transported from the modern era to the Middle Ages, bringing with them modern weapons and vehicles that completely shift the balance of power on vast battlefields where thousands of soldiers clash.
Blending real-time strategy elements with third-person action, this game promised an ambitious genre-bending experience, combining modern weapons like rifles, machine guns, and even tanks with castle sieges and traditional warfare tactics. This delay demonstrates the need for additional time to fully realize the game’s unique vision.
