Demo Update 0.79 - Introducing 1vs1 Champions Cup

Hello everyone,Pleased to announce that the v 0.79 is now live for the Demo! this demo introduces the much requested 1vs1 Champions Cup where every Ludus has to send their best Gladiator to participate in classic knockout tournament structure. Winner even gets immortalized with a special "Champion" trait, which makes them behave like Legendaries and ensure greater variety between your playthroughs.
I also realised I actually hadn't posted any patch notes on Steam since the demo launched, making it difficult for players to get an overview of what has been added so far. So here's a list of some of the most important features added in this update as well as some of the previous ones.

V 0.79B Patch notes:

  • Added the ability to see opponent team's stats in the Post Match Panel

  • Included your team's stats for the current season in the End of Season window

  • Did several improvements to the Champions Cup

  • Fixed the Champions Cup not correctly starting at the beginning of a new season

V 0.79A Patch notes:

  • Added new full calender view to the home panel

  • Decreased AI starting denarii from 1500 to 1000


V 0.79 Patch notes:

  • Added New 1vs1 Champions Cup Tournament

  • Added New "Cup" subpanel under the League panel

  • Added Season Counter in the top panel

  • Added Lanistas to the game

  • Added Lanista customization

  • Added new Arena scenes for Division 6 & 5

  • Redid the whole Options/Settings system

  • Improved Save Game functionality

  • Reduced Healthbar names font size

  • Increased height for Healthbars

  • After multiple threats of being fed to the lions, the announcer in the Division 7 arena scene agreed to put his clothes back on :) (Should I keep this bug though?)

  • Several minor fixes and adjustments

  • Increased player starting Denarii from 1000 to 1500

If you are already having a great playthrough but want to experience the Champions Cup, fear not! It's compatible with existing saves, you just need to finish your current season for it to start :)

Major update3 Sep 2026Patch 0.95 is out now!Salvēte dear Roman Citizens! I know this update has taken a little longer than expected, but the new World View required me to rework quite a few of the game’s underlying systems. The positive side of this is that the way Gladiators, Lanistas and Doctores are handled is now much more modular, which also opens the door for potential future systems such as transfers between Ludi and much more.

I had initially planned to wait and release a much bigger update, but some of the new features I’m currently working on are rather extensive and need a bit more time. So I figured I would instead release a smaller, but still significant, update with everything that is already ready for you all. Patch 0.94.3 Patch Notes · Added Twitch Integration !
