What’s the release date for Kingmakers on PC? Publisher tinyBuild and developer Redemption Road Games have collaborated to create Kingmakers, a medieval-themed sandbox game that blends action and strategy.
Kingmakers will be released in early access on PC in Q1 2025 via Steam. Currently, there are plans to develop console versions too.
Kingmakers draws inspiration from titles such as Deep Rock Galactic, Kingdom Come: Deliverance, Chivalry, and the Stronghold series.
Players assume the role of an elite task force operative unexpectedly transported to a war-ravaged medieval England, but now equipped with a cache of modern weaponry—such as calling in an F-16 airstrike against a platoon of unsuspecting knights.
The game’s purpose and goal is to shift the course of history and prevent a looming apocalypse in the future, presumably caused by events in this timeline.

Kingmakers is due to be released for the PC in Q1 2025, with a 2025 release set for the Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5.

The trailer below highlights the thrilling, action-packed battles in Kingmakers. In the game, players can construct their kingdoms, accumulate a vast array of firearms, even attack helicopters, and then command their forces in large-scale, real-time simulated battles.
These battles can be undertaken alone or cooperatively with up to four players.
