Can You Samurai? Renowned Expeditions-Series Heads to Feudal Japan in a New Turn-Based RPG

Copenhagen, Denmark / Vienna, Austria - June 8th, 2026 Japan, in the year 1600: warlords clash, alliances crumble, and the path to becoming Shogun is anything but tidy. Into this powder keg sails Expeditions: Samurai, a new historical RPG from Campfire Cabal and THQ Nordic, inviting players to choose their own path through history in a branching story shaped by life-or-death decisions. Campfire Cabal is a Copenhagen-based studio founded in 2022 and led by veterans behind the critically acclaimed Expeditions: Conquistador, Expeditions: Viking, and Expeditions: Rome.

In Expeditions: Samurai, the famous navigator William Adams never makes history as Japan’s first European Samurai, because this time, YOU get there first. Arriving aboard the Dutch frigate "De Albatros" as the newly elected leader of a ragtag crew of privateers, players are drawn into the final chapter of a brutal civil war where every choice can shape the fate of their crew and the future of Japan. With eight companions and eight personal stories to uncover, players can build bonds that grow into friendship, rivalry, or even romance. Every crewmate has their own story to uncover - if you manage to earn their trust.

Combat in Expeditions: Samurai is dynamic. It's fast-paced - and yet still turn-based! Blending simultaneous actions, stealth, gadgets, ambushes, and a broad mix of pirate and Japanese weaponry to an exciting tactical challenge for the players. And for the first time in series history, the adventure can also be played in drop-in/drop-out co-op - because navigating feudal Japanese politics alone is hard enough.

Expeditions: Samurai is coming to PC this Summer and will be available via Early Access.
