'Distant Kingdoms' Playable Demo Tomorrow, Early Access Later This Year - Screens

Distant Kingdoms is a socio-economic city builder set in a unique medieval fantasy world.

A blend of City Building, Social Management, Exploration and Adventure gameplay, Distant Kingdoms brings a rich fantasy world to life. Bring the Humans, Dwarves, Elves and Orcs of Talem together and help the disparate races to save the fabled land of Ineron from ruin.

Forge a civilization, building a sprawling network of towns and provide for your people’s needs through a deep web of production lines as they move through the social strata from Peasants to Nobles. 

Explore a new mysterious world filled with secrets, quests and magic as you create Tabletop RPG-like adventuring parties and have them venture out into the unexplored mists...and battle the fierce creatures that lay in wait.


Kasedo Games and Orthrus Studios have announced that Distant Kingdoms will launch into Steam Early Access in Q2 2021.

“We’re excited to be able to deliver a unique game that mixes vibrant fantasy elements with the city building tropes that players of this genre love,” said Oliver Smith, Founder of Orthrus Studios. “Although we had initially planned a full release, the excitement and input of the community since announcing has made us rethink a little. By going to Early Access, it means we can involve the community and mould our already unique game world into something players can play for many hours”.

A demo of Distant Kingdoms will be available during the Steam Games Festival running from February 3rd until Feb. 9, 2021, and we’re inviting people to join the discussion on our Discord channel. The demo build will enable players to experience early gameplay and the tutorial before its Q2 early access release.
