About the Game

This has been a solo dev passion project for several years with help here and there. But pre/production is now finished with full dedicated server support. And currently building a small team to make the final stages.

Lead and command your own warband: Recruit loyal followers and experienced warriors to fight by your side. Train, equip, and lead them into battle as your influence grows. From hunting bandits to waging wars against rival factions, every victory strengthens your reputation and brings you one step closer to power.

Build and manage settlements: Construct buildings, attract settlers, gather resources, and transform a humble outpost into a thriving center of commerce and influence. Expand your territory, strengthen your defenses, and build a legacy that endures long after the battles have been won.

Rise from adventurer to ruler: Forge alliances with powerful families, earn influence across the realm, and turn your reputation into real power. Whether through diplomacy, military strength, or economic success, every decision brings you closer to the throne.

Shape your fate through the Tarot: The cards have been dealt. Your fate awaits. Each Tarot background offers a unique beginning, influencing the opportunities, allies, and challenges you encounter. But destiny is never certain, only your choices will determine how the story unfolds.

Explore a living medieval sandbox world: Venture beyond the safety of towns and settlements into a world filled with danger, discovery, and opportunity. Uncover hidden locations, encounter travellers from distant lands, gather valuable resources, and overcome challenges that reward courage and preparation.

Birthright is a multiplayer medieval sandbox RPG where every journey begins the same way: with nothing but ambition. Explore a living medieval world, recruit followers to your cause, build thriving settlements, command armies in battle, forge alliances with powerful families, and pursue your own path to power.

Your story begins with a Tarot reading. The cards offer you a unique starting path, shaping the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead. But your destiny is never certain. The greatest legends are not those who follow fate… they are those who overcome it.

In a realm where powerful families compete for influence and kingdoms rise and fall through war, diplomacy, ambition, and betrayal, every decision matters. Death is permanent, legacies pass through generations, and new dynasties emerge from the ashes of old ones.

Every choice creates new opportunities. Every setback presents new challenges. Every victory brings you closer to leaving your mark on the realm. Will you become a wealthy merchant, a respected noble, a feared warlord, or the ruler of a thriving kingdom?

Birthright is a player-driven sandbox experience focused on progression, exploration, politics, and storytelling. Rather than following a linear narrative, you'll create your own goals, forge your own alliances, and leave your mark on a world shaped by the actions of its inhabitants.

Your story has yet to be written.
