Forge your path to power in medieval Europe. Choose your profession and master trade, politics, and intrigue to climb the social ladder and found a dynasty. Secure your legacy and dominate history in this immersive economic simulation.
Starting at the head of a fledgling dynasty with only a modest business, your journey begins. As the years pass and your enterprise grows, you need to expand your family’s influence and secure a succession to ensure your legacy endures.
However, business and trade alone won’t give you a voice in the town hall. To truly steer the fortunes of the city and ensure the law always favours your ambitions, you must engage in the intricate political landscape. Use popularity, bribes, or even blackmail to climb the social ladder and secure your place in the highest offices.
In The Guild – Europa 1410, you navigate a complex web of relationships, where every decision can impact your dynasty’s future. Master the art of trade and production to build your wealth and use diplomacy and cunning to outmanoeuvre rivals. Build your legacy and make choices that will ripple through future generations. Whether through strategic alliances or open rivalry and clever schemes, the path to dominance is yours to choose.
First of all, a big "Thank you!" goes out to all players who checked out the demo of The Guild – Europa 1410 during Steam Next Fest. Out of more than 4,000 demos featured, The Guild – Europa 1410 was the 25th most played one – that is amazing! We saw tens of thousands of aspiring medieval tycoons get ready to start their businesses and lay the foundations of a dynasty that spans generations.
We're equally grateful for the detailed, extensive feedback that thousands of you shared with us. It's already helping us understand even better what players expect from The Guild – Europa 1410 as it heads toward Early Access. Based on what we've learned from the demo, we've decided to move our Early Access release date from July 16 to September 2026.
Originally, we planned to release our first Early Access content update in September. Instead, that content - plus some extras - will now be part of the Early Access launch itself.
This shift doesn't change the roadmap we've committed to. Multiplayer, additional maps and professions, and deeper mechanics around economy, politics, and dynasty progression are all still planned for after launch. We'll share more details in our roadmap ahead of the Early Access release.
What's new in the September build:
- One new map that acts as a tutorial area
- UI improvements for a more cohesive, immersive experience - including automation options for recurring business tasks
- More and better animations to properly depict the activities of workers and citizens in your city
- Support for several languages, some text only, some including voice-overs
We know that there has been a lot of excitement and curiosity regarding Early Access release, and we appreciate your patience while we keep on working on the game. In the meantime, keep an eye out for an upcoming update for the The Guild – Europa 1410 demo, where you'll get a first look at several of these improvements for yourselves.
We'd like to thank all players once more for being part of this journey - we can't wait to start our legacy together in September!
