Players can now create a family legacy that spans the land in Great Houses of Calderia. The feudal grand strategy game from developer Resistance Games and publisher Firesquid officially starts its Founders Beta on Steam today. The line between family and enemy is thin. Aspiring rulers must lead their house decisively to gain control of Calderia.

In Great Houses of Calderia, players take control of a noble family that wants to take control of the legendary province of Calderia, which is marked by an insatiable thirst for power. The aim is to define the traditions of your own house over time and create a dynasty that will stand the test of time.

Maintaining diplomatic relationships is essential and powerful alliances can be formed with neighboring houses through trade, war or even marriage. Order in Calderia must be maintained by appointing and deploying strategically important members of the family in the areas of trade, espionage, and military. The respective roles should be chosen carefully, because the members of the family decide their own fate. Their actions, for better or worse, can shatter even the strongest alliances.

Founders beta program starts

Through strategic maneuvers and clever influence, players secure their dominance. They manage and expand their fief and its population while cultivating traditions unique to their house. The way you rule influences Calderia's fate in the endgame. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to achieve honorary ranks by increasing one's noble status while turning competitors into vassals. This is how a dynasty can emerge for the history books.

Key features of the game:

  • Warfare with the real-time tactical combat system.
  • Social conflicts can be resolved with the help of the unique resource management system.
  • Players decide on trade deals and send their own delegations to competing houses.
  • Over generations, players define the traditions of their families and thus acquire unique advantages, but also weaknesses.
  • Family members may be appointed to their own delegations for important duties such as trading, spying, negotiating, and leading armies. Your own succession is secured through marriages.
  • Main characters have their own personality, which is shaped by certain events in the game. Additionally, this personality influences their willingness and ability to serve their ruler appropriately.
  • Hundreds of unique events require critical decisions to deal with a wide variety of situations - from diplomacy to war to sending family members, there are a variety of options to choose from.
  • Players can task key characters with overseeing a fief to specialize the economy and gain a competitive advantage.
  • The fantastic lands of Calderia hold many legends and myths to be explored.
  • With mod support from release onwards, players can create their own unique stories and share them with others.

Through the exclusive Founders Beta program, founders get an early insight into the exciting game universe and receive a 25 percent discount on the game. All founders will have their names immortalized in the credits and will be assigned a unique role on the official Discord server. In addition, participants in the Founders Beta will receive the original digital soundtrack (OST) and a breathtaking digital art book, which further enriches the Calderia experience.
