Campaign Forge launches November 27 - and there's a free demo on the way

Campaign Forge · published 3 Sep 2026, 10:11 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

The short version: Campaign Forge enters Early Access on November 27, 2026 —

a bit later than the August window we first posted.

The reason: something better landed on the calendar. Campaign Forge will

be part of Steam Next Fest in October, and before that the Party-Based RPG

Fest (September 14–21) — and both deserve a proper, playable demo rather than a

rushed launch. The extra weeks go into exactly the build you'll play first.

The free demo arrives in September, in three acts:

- Play immediately — a hand-crafted opening chapter, no setup at all.

- Forge your own world — the full generator, running entirely on YOUR

  machine with the bundled local AI. No account, no API key, no cloud. Your

  world, chapters 1 and 2, written for your choices.

- Forge a boss — design a boss encounter in the same tool we use, then

  fight it.

And because the demo and the full game share their save data: whatever you

forge in the demo carries straight into the full game — your world, your

saves, your bosses.

Wishlist Campaign Forge to hear the moment the demo goes live. See you on the

Ember Road.

In the fire floors they used to sink into the same dark red as the ground. - Every attack zone has a rim, so its edge is never in doubt. Where two attacks overlap, the tile shows a hatch and a count.
