‘Dungeon Settlers’ garnered attention by being named one of the top 50 most played demos at Steam Next Fest held last June, and has now surpassed 250,000 on Steam Wishlists.

The previously released gameplay trailer also garnered attention from global gamers, recording over 300,000 views and more than 14,000 likes on YouTube.

This Early Access version adds a wider variety of content than the demo shown at Steam Next Fest. It will introduce the new Lycan race, a spear skill tree, regional boss battles not included in the demo, and the second area, “The Rotten Tunnels.” In addition, content has been reinforced throughout the game, and various quality-of-life improvements have been made.

Dungeon Settlers is a dark fantasy strategy game that combines settlement simulation and dungeon crawling. Players manage and develop a settlement while forming a four-person expedition team to explore procedurally generated dungeons. A key feature is that the growth of the settlement and the progress of dungeon expeditions are interconnected.

CanOpener announced that it plans to release a roadmap containing update plans following the early access launch in September.
