Release Date: 2026 Early Access
A sandbox RPG with strategy elements, set in Europe during the Middle Ages and in many ways inspired by Mount & Blade. Chronicles: Medieval can be played on a strategic layer, or we can switch to a TPP view. Our character can participate in battles or pick a more peaceful life of a trader or a blacksmith. The game supports coop and mods.
Chronicles: Medieval is the debut project of Raw Power Games studio. It was founded in 2022 and although its headquarters is located in Denmark, it is an international team. For example, Andrzej Zawadzki from Poland, who previously worked for almost a decade at CD Projekt RED, was hired for the described project to become a senior game designer.
In many ways, Chronicles: Medieval is similar to the Mount & Blade series. Just like there, the gameplay takes place on two layers. One of them is a quasi-strategic exploration of the world map (in this case, Europe from the 14th and 15th centuries) from a bird's eye view. The other one is third-person control of our character in selected locations: settlements, cities, castles, and especially on battlefields.
We start the adventure by creating our own character, who can take on the role of both a mercenary or a bandit, as well as a craftsman or a merchant. As one of the key features of Chronicles: Medieval, the developer points out the freedom to shape the fate of the hero.
If we want, we can lead a simple life, even as a blacksmith or a mercenary in the army of some ruler. However, we can also climb to the top, recruiting troops, fighting battles, conducting sieges, taking over territories - until we stand at the head of our own kingdom (the game does not offer overly developed strategic management options though).
The combat system has a skill-based characteristic and it was developed with the help of experts in medieval weapon handling techniques (swords, pole weapons etc.).
We can play Chronicles: Medieval alone or in online cooperation. In addition to the main campaign, there is a quick battle mode available with non-standard rules.
The game also offers full support for mods - designed broadly enough to, according to the creators' assumption, become a kind of platform that will be able to handle any universes or historical epochs.
Chronicles: Medieval uses Unreal Engine 5 technology, supported by Raw Power Games studio's own Asgard engine.
