'Historia: Roma Aeterna' Is A Historical Narrative Strategy/Adventure, Coming To PC - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Aug. 6, 2026 @ 7:00 a.m. PDT

Historia: Roma Aeterna is a historical narrative/strategy adventure that puts players in the shoes of Caesar during the era historians refer to as Caesar's Civil War.

Players become Caesar, experiencing both glory and consequence as they advance through the lesser-explored paths throughout Caesar’s Civil War.  Weigh counsel, strike bargains, challenge rival senators, and more through beautifully illustrated story encounters. And then take to the field for combat in simultaneous turn-based battles.

Move pieces and decide tactics on a war table, then watch it transform into a living battlefield as your orders are carried out.

Historia: Roma Aeterna is set during Caesar’s Civil War (49 - 45 BC), a pivotal chapter in the era historians call the Crisis of the Roman Republic. The story follows conflicts across the Mediterranean that will ultimately decide the fate of the Roman Republic and, in Historia: Roma Aeterna, that fate rests entirely in your hands.

With the expertise of a credentialed historian and gaming industry veterans, Heavy Cav Studios casts players in the role of the legendary general with an opportunity to define the story where history is uncertain.


See it in motion and watch the announcement trailer above, where you get a glimpse into the striking visual style and gameplay blend of narrative and combat that brings this strategy adventure to life.

“We’re deeply passionate about history and strategy games, and we want to share that passion with more people by making both more accessible. History is full of extraordinary stories that deserve to be experienced, not simply read about. Caesar’s life is one of them. While its major events are known, there are gaps in the historical record that give players the opportunity to fill them in: to role-play the Caesar they believe he was within a historically plausible world. Strategy games can be rewarding, but their complexity can make them intimidating. With Historia: Roma Aeterna, we want to make that experience intuitive and approachable, so players can focus on the people, the world, and the meaningful decisions of command,” said Jahangir Gasimov, Founder at Heavy Cav Studios.

Key Features:

  • Your Choices, Carved in Stone | Where the historical record falls silent, you decide what happens next. Every choice impacts your relationships with various factions and shapes the Rome you leave behind.
  • War Table to Battlefield | Move your pieces on the war table and, once you give an order, watch the simultaneous turns play out on a realistic battlefield. Did you outsmart the opponent or play right into their hands? Triumph or tragedy, choose your next orders wisely.
  • Ahistorical Accuracy | Some choices will go against the tides of history, but they will be informed through deep research and the support of an experienced historian.
  • Glory Has a Price | Mercy, ruthlessness, ambition. What type of Caesar will you be?

Historia: Roma Aeterna is in development for PC (Steam).
