It's been a bit of a whirlwind for us since we announced Expeditions: Samurai two months ago. It's somehow already been 4 years since Expeditions: Rome was released, and it was an incredible relief to finally be able to talk about some of what we'd been through since then, the new studio we had built to continue the Expeditions series, and above all the what the new game would bring to the table: a rich and colourful setting in Feudal Japan, a dynamic gameplay loop with lots of room for player creativity, and above all full 2-player campaign co-op.Today we have released the game in Early Acces

While you wait for Update 1, which will address all common feedback from the initial Early Access version of Expeditions: Samurai, we thought we would take this opportunity to talk a little bit about how the core gameplay of Samurai has evolved from Rome, and the thinking behind these changes.Every Expeditions game undergoes a few gameplay changes compared to previous instalments, both to keep the series feeling fresh, but also to support the themes of each game's distinct setting and story. This dev diary will delve into the most significant change we've made to Samurai, being the addition of

Hello everyone!The Early Access release of Expeditions: Samurai is in a mere three days! We hope you're all as excited to play the game as we are to see how you like it once it's in your hands.While we wait for Friday, some of you have asked why we've chosen to release the game in Early Access. This is the first time an Expeditions game will be in Early Access, but not the first time a version of an Expeditions game has been made available to players while still in development - after all, Viking had an open beta and Conquistador was Kickstarted.Sit down with us in our lovely Copenhagen office

Buenos días, Capitán. Over on the Expeditions: Samurai Steam page, we've previously posted our first developer diary from that project, taking you behind the scenes of the story writing for the fourth instalment in the series. We now have another dev diary ready, and we thought it might be nice to share it with the Expeditions: Conquistador community as well.Over the past few months, there has been a lot of interest in - and speculation about - the character system in Samurai. It's been a lot of fun to read your thoughts and hear what changes or improvements you were hoping to see in Samurai c

Every Expeditions game adds a new twist on the core gameplay of the franchise, to fit the historical period and geographical setting of each game.To let you make your mark on an era of ninjas and pirates, Expeditions: Samurai blurs the lines between real-time exploration and turn-based combat with new stealth gameplay, the option to split your party, and many more ways to interact with the environment both in and outside of combat.For a further glimpse into the improvements we've made to the core game loop of the series, take a look at our new Gameplay Trailer on YouTube:As we approach the rel

The vessel Albatros has brought your crew to Japan – a land strange to you, full of dangers and challenges, but also the opportunity to meet new allies... and maybe even new friends. If you can earn their trust, that is. In Expeditions: Samurai, your hero will be Captain Flynn – but you get to choose his or hers first name, customize its appearance, and pick from one of four classes. On your journey, you'll meet a colorful cast of eight companions: the skilled burglar Antje, who excels at stealth and has a knack for cracking open doors and locks; Johan, a relative of the late captain and just

Hello everyone! Since we announced Expeditions: Samurai, we've begun to put together a series of dev vlogs to keep you updated on our progress and give you more glimpses into what the game will be like, and why. The changes in art direction have caused quite the stir, so we thought it would be nice to start with a short look into these changes, and talk a little bit about what it brings to the table that you can now see your actual 3D character in dialogue.Please watch our first dev vlog, "Behind the Art", on our YouTube channel: This will be the first of a series of vlogs and trailers as we m

Let’s catch you up. With the notable exception of a peculiar and mysterious patch for Expeditions: Rome that was released in November of 2024, it’s been radio silence from us for roughly 2 years. Though speculation ran wild about the origin of the patch, no official explanation was ever given. We are finally ready to reveal that Campfire Cabal is still alive. Though we did have to say goodbye to many of our colleagues, the studio survived and a compact team continued the project we had started in 2022. At the end of March of 2025, we received the green light to scale up slightly and transition

Over the last three weeks, I’ve received emails about seven different viking-based games. I guess we have our new zombies. Vikings, though, have something that the walking dead do not: Viqueens. I am glad to say that earthy, quasi-political RPG Expeditions: Viking does not force me to be another Odinson. …
