Europe in the early Middle Ages -- Nobles and clergy rule and the trade between the nations brings prosperity as well as envy, distrust, and greed. Military conflicts are everywhere and whole continents are changing.

You are in the role of a poor but skilled hunter and farmer set to take his fate into own hands. Use the ever-changing landscape to turn your small plot of land into a home, a village, and a kingdom that will stand the test of time, as you and your descendants create a dynasty to rule for generations to come! Entice others to live near and work for you, build your home, a village, and ultimately a thriving city where your dynasty will reign for generations.

Defending against wild animals while hunting for food, gathering resources and crafting equipment, building a house and erecting a whole bustling village while founding a family all contribute to a unique gameplay across many genres. Tough winters and unexpected events challenge your skills and dexterity as you strive to build your own legacy.

You can choose to follow the main chapters, solve the questlines or just roam around and explore the vast medieval world – but be careful as wolves or bears may try to take a bite from you...

Begin with the simplest things for your own survival like hunting and farming as well as building yourself a home. Found a family and have a heir - entice others to live near and work for you, erect many other building to transform your settlement into a vibrant village and, ultimately, a thriving dynasty that will reign for generations.

A massive medieval open 3D world awaits… Be aware of harsh winters and unexpected events while honing your skills to turn from a medieval survivor into a dynasty ruler. Grab your axe, hammer, or hunting bow - and craft your legacy!

Two months ago, Toplitz Productions and RenderCube released “Medieval Dynasty” on Steam Early Access, and since then the publisher and developer haven’t just sat down and waited for the full release far from it, they have been regularly releasing updates. The feedback and response from media, influencers and the community has been amazing and the gaming public who in turn have left unprecedented incredibly positive likes on steam - over 8500 on last count so far.

The game is able to offer players four gaming genres: Survival, Adventure, RPG and Simulation. This is one of the many factors that has increased its appeal with players. Those four genres offer the player the ability to mix, match and adapt their gaming styles and start building and socializing - all in an open medieval world.

The company has released more than 20 updates including many updates and new features like:

• One of the first big additions to the game are events. The events cover various aspects of gameplay, and depending on your decisions, they will have specific outcomes.
• We also added a few more items for you that will make your life easier, and your village prettier – enjoy the new street lighting!
• To make the game accessible to many players we added many new languages like Russian, French, Japanese, Italian and many more
• There is now an additional opportunity to get food - fishing. You’ll be able to catch different species of fish in various locations and craft new tools. 
• A highly requested feature from the community is the path- and roadbuilding. You can now plan the layout of buildings and roads according to your plan.

We have many other updates coming up which for example will include Riding, Farming, Barkeeping and Bandits. So many things to come and enjoy in Medieval Dynasty which are worth to stay tuned!
