Kingmakers, the new title from independent studio Redemption Road Games, published by tinyBuild, is preparing for its early access launch on October 8. This is an unusual proposal that combines medieval combat with modern weaponry in a massive real-time strategy setting.
Set in an alternate timeline of 16th-century England, the game presents a story in which a traveler from the future becomes humanity's only hope. Equipped with current combat technology, he must face armies of medieval knights using 21st-century tactics, weapons, and tools.
Real-time strategy with a futuristic twist
One of the most innovative aspects of Kingmakers is the ability to command up to 4,000 soldiers with advanced artificial intelligence in open-world environments that allow for a dynamic tactical approach.

The game includes:
Campaign mode with a flexible narrative.
Multiplayer mode to plan and execute attacks together.
Extensive modern arsenal: from submachine guns to rocket launchers.
Combat against medieval units: archers, cavalry, and catapults.
Graphics with a realistic aesthetic and detailed physics.
The proposal is completed with gameplay based on tactical decisions, real-time responses, and simultaneous control of troops and vehicles, such as tanks and helicopters.
Time travel, dark humor, and flexible narrative
Kingmakers' story breaks with linear narratives. The player, as a time traveler, must alter the course of history in an alternate timeline, where the logic of the past faces the power of the present.
The studio behind the game promises a "chaotic but controlled" experience, with touches of dark humor, boundless creativity, and settings that blend realism with spectacular elements. Additionally, each soldier's autonomy, thanks to AI, introduces unpredictable variables on the battlefield.

According to the developers, the goal is to rethink the real-time strategy genre. In the words of Redemption Road Games, "the chaos of massive combat is part of the experience, not a system error."
High expectations in the gaming community
Since its announcement, Kingmakers has captured the attention of the gaming community for its disruptive concept. The combination of a medieval epic with a modern arsenal promises to offer an experience different from anything seen so far in the strategy genre.
Early access, available from October 8 for PC, will serve to fine-tune details based on player feedback. The industry is closely following the performance of this ambitious project, which could mark a turning point in RTS with massive simulations.
