Dragonkin: New Era Dawns with Demo & Updates

Eko Software and NACON have released a demo and detailed roadmap for their action RPG, Dragonkin: The Banished, now in Steam Early Access. The demo, available until March 3rd, 2025, as part of Steam Next Fest, features the prologue and first chapter. Players can choose from three unique heroes—the Knight, the Oracle, and the Barbarian—each accompanied by four Vermplings, cooperative companions who aid in battle. The innovative Bloodline Grid skill progression system, endgame hunting quests, and initial hub city upgrades are also included.

The developers have ambitious plans for the early access period. Spring updates will bring new abilities, enhanced endgame content, a new endgame activity, and improved hub city features. Summer will introduce a new hero, additional skills, and expanded endgame challenges. Autumn will see the highly anticipated addition of multiplayer support, alongside continued refinements to the Bloodline Grid and hub city.

In Dragonkin: The Banished, players explore a world tainted by ancient dragon blood. They guide a legendary warrior, battling monstrous creatures emerging from the earth and confronting the powerful Dragonlords behind the chaos. Character growth, equipment upgrades, and Vermpling evolution are key progression elements, complemented by the strategic customization options of the Bloodline Grid.

Dragonkin: The Banished launches in Steam Early Access on March 6th, 2025, with a full release planned for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
