The new economy update introduces a completely fresh gameplay experience, particularly for the early stages of your settlement.

  • Eight new buildings expand your medieval-fantasy city.
  • Experience an alternative start with just a few units and no supplies, forcing you to craft your initial tools.
  • Craft your first axe and spear directly, making the early game more engaging for both new and veteran players.
  • Choose from four differently equipped landing teams in single-player mode and two enhanced teams for co-op.

System Refinement Is Important to the Pre-Launch Update

The update brings a vital new unit to Pioneers of Pagonia and significantly refines core gameplay systems.

  • A new unit, the Pioneer, now joins the game, truly bringing the title’s namesake to life.
  • Enjoy significantly refined and rebalanced settlement development across various systems.
  • A new progress overview provides clear visibility of economic milestones, both upcoming and achieved.
  • Experience an overhauled food system, refined map generation, and numerous visual upgrades to terrain.
  • Embellish your settlement with decorative objects like flower beds, scarecrows, statues, and ornamental trees.

What is coming next for Pioneers of Pagonia?
