Medieval RPG is a hit on Steam – sequel is set in Japan and even comes with co-op mode

Medieval Dynasty took players to the European Middle Ages and gave them the opportunity to build their own village. With Sengoku Dynasty, publisher Toplitz Productions wants to bring the “Medieval Dynasty” experience to Japan in 2022.

What is Sengoku Dynasty? With Sengoku Dynasty, the German publisher Toplitz Productions wants to take the recipe for success of Medieval Dynasty to the next level. Sengoku Dynasty is scheduled for early access on Steam in 2022.

In Sengoku Dynasty you are in medieval Japan and you are trying to ensure the survival of your family. For this purpose you build your own community, organize its everyday life and lead it as the founder of your own village.

What game mechanics will Sengoku Dynasty have? Like its predecessor, Sengoku Dynasty is characterized above all by its multifaceted nature. In addition to survival and RPG mechanics, it has elements of a life simulation in feudal Japan.

In contrast to Medieval Dynasty, you can not only experience the open game world of Sengoku Dynasty directly at release, but also in co-op mode with friends. In addition to the story mode, there is also a sandbox mode available to you.

There are also various categories available for your gaming behavior:

• The Leader’s Way: Forge alliances with NPCs, expand your influence, trade, raise a family and build a community.
• The Way of the Artisan: learns the techniques of crafting and crafts weapons, tools and housing, cooks, crafts items and tills the land.
• The Way of the Warrior: Practice weaponry, face off against enemies with traditional Japanese melee and ranged weapons, and go hunting.
• The Monk’s Way: draws energy from places of power, erects spiritual edifices, meditates at mystical shrines, and sacrifices to Japanese deities to gain their blessings.

Who is Sengoku Dynasty for? With Sengoku Dynasty, Toplitz Productions is releasing a game for fans of the predecessor Medieval Dynasty as well as admirers of feudal Japan, its landscape and unique architecture.

The game has typical aspects of the survival genre such as hunting, collecting, crafting and building houses. In addition, since it is a simulation in which alliance forging, organization and even logistics are important, the game can also be interesting for building fans and strategists.

The RPG mechanics that players used to interact with NPCs in Medieval Dynasty are also an important factor in starting your family and building your own village.

If you don’t choose the right answers in the conversations or make the wrong decisions, you will feel the consequences afterwards. NPCs can deliberately choose not to join your village, and bad leadership can get around and damage your dynasty’s reputation.

So if you’re not a survival or building fan and don’t like roleplaying games or their NPC interaction, then Sengoku Dynasty won’t be a game for you. However, if you are looking for a game where you want to run your own Japanese village, then Sengoku Dynasty might be of interest to you.

The predecessor: “A game for everyone who enjoys solving problems”

How was the predecessor? Medieval Dynasty, released in 2021, was already a complete success. With 23,000 positive reviews, 90% of all received Steam reviews of the medieval RPG are positive.

• Slothlady1 via Steam: I love everything about this game. It can be challenging or relaxing depending on how you customize the gameplay.
• Tenderfoot via Steam: A game for everyone who enjoys problem solving, crafting and building, hunting and managing a population. It is not suitable for those who want to fight, fly and shoot zombies or aliens.
• harvjenn via Steam: A beautifully realized medieval world that draws you in and keeps you busy.

With the co-op mode, Sengoku Dynasty gets the feature that “Medieval Dynasty” fans have been waiting for for a long time. Toplitz Productions recently announced that the players’ wish will be granted and that Medieval Dynasty 2023 will have a co-op mode.

What the co-op mode in Medieval or Sengoku Dynasty looks like or how it feels to lead a village together with friends is not yet known.

Can you imagine building your own village in co-op mode, or is sole dominance more appealing to you?
