Raw Power Games is a new studio comprising over 100 veterans who have contributed to notable titles such as The Witcher 3, the Assassin’s Creed series, the Hitman series, Red Dead Redemption 2, Cyberpunk 2077, and the Grand Theft Auto series.

Clemens Koch, Senior Community Manager, added, “We believe the best ideas often come from players themselves, and we look forward to building the game with our community, offering early playtests and feedback sessions. To learn more about Chronicles: Medieval and engage, we encourage players to join our dedicated Discord channel.”

What is Chronicles: Medieval?

Chronicles Medieval PROMOTIONAL ART

Chronicles: Medieval drops players into a sprawling, dynamic sandbox experience set in the brutal yet beautiful European world of the 14th and 15th centuries. The debut game focuses on blending action and RPG depth on a strategic scale.

The game allows players to forge their destiny in a living, breathing realm where every decision has historical echoes and every sword swing can alter their fate. Players will engage in intense combat, vie for land, glory, and legacy, and lead massive armies into battle. The game is powered by Unreal Engine 5 and Raw Power Games’ proprietary Asgard technology.

Chronicles: Medieval strategically blends action and RPG depth, offering an ever-evolving narrative with emergent storytelling and a player-led legacy at the forefront.

Key Features for Early Chronicles: Medieval

  • Enter a vibrant medieval Europe: a sprawling sandbox of unrest, invasions, and alliances. Create a custom character and experience a path filled with conflict and opportunity. Chronicles: Medieval will evolve, shaping itself alongside community feedback into a living medieval playground, where no two stories are identical.
  • Intense Combat and Large-Scale Battles: Master medieval warfare with skill and strategy. Recruit, train, and lead troops into epic battles with full customization and control. Command historical units like the sharp-eyed English Longbowmen, the devastating French cavalry, and the feared Imperial Polearm infantry. Players can command large-scale battles and fight directly on the front lines in third person.
  • Authentic Medieval Combat: Combat delivers an engaging and authentic medieval experience with stunning animations, fluid weapon mechanics, and a focus on realism. Raw Power Games has partnered with Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA) legend Björn Rüther to capture the precision and weight of authentic historical martial arts, ensuring every swing and clash of steel feels impactful and accurate to the era.
  • Write Your Story, Forge Your Destiny: Your path to victory begins here. Shape your legacy in a medieval sandbox where every decision matters. Choose power, adventure, or fortune, navigating diplomacy and conflict to create a story uniquely yours.

Chronicles: Medieval is set to release in 2026.
