The co-op RTS Dwarfheim came to the table back in 2020 with some interesting ideas. Unlike most games in the genre, in which one player controls one base and does battle with all comers, Dwarfheim enabled groups of up to three to run their show together, each with a unique role: Builder, Miner, or Warrior. But it never really caught fire through its early access period or after its full release in September 2021, and the team maintaining it has announced that it will close up shop for good at the end of November...

Hey everyone, We have some news to share on the future of DwarfHeim. Some time after v1.0 the developers dissolved which means we have no source code and no means of continuing to update the game. In the meanwhile we have been maintaining servers to enable players to continue playing the game. Unfortunately, it is no longer feasible to continue to maintain servers so we will be removing DwarfHeim from sale as soon as Valve is able to make this change, to prevent any further sales, and then DwarfHeim server support will end on 30th November 2023. Due to the way DwarfHeim was built it is not pos

Hi Everyone, I'm very pleased to let you know that the service level issue that had rendered DwarfHeim unavailable is resolved. We have done some testing internally and everything seems to be working, please do let us know if anyone encounters any issues. Huge apologies to everyone who has been trying to play during this time, it was a complicated issue to resolve and we're very happy to see the game back up for players. Thanks, Danny.

Hi everyone, We wanted to express our sincere apologies for the ongoing outage with DwarfHeim. It isn’t a simple case of switching a server back on or paying for a server that has lapsed, otherwise, we would have taken that action swiftly. There is a service level issue that we have only been made aware of since the developer, Pineleaf, was unfortunately dissolved. We’re working diligently to try and get this solved but it is a complex situation, and we, unfortunately, don’t have an ETA on when it can be resolved. As such, we’ve reached out to Valve to take the temporary measure of removing Dw

#1: Do I need three people to play? No, you can play single player or multiplayer by yourself. If you don't have a team online, you can matchmake by selecting your class and get matched with other players for the match. You can also take advantage of the DwarfHeim Friend-Pass. Friend-Pass allows owners of DwarfHeim to invite their friends who don’t own the game yet, to play the co-op mode, Survival, together - totally free.

Class-based, cooperative RTS DwarfHeim comes out on September 27, ending a little under a year in Early Access for the unique game. It'll launch with a big 1.0 patch featuring a pretty hefty slew of new stuff: Tunneling for miners, new UI for survival mode, more colorful trolls, and a bit more. You can find the release announcement on Steam... Read more.

Hey everyone! We’re excited to tell you that the time to leave Early Access is upon us, DwarfHeim v1.0 is coming on September 27th! Early Access has been a journey, and whilst it took longer than expected, we’re so grateful to the amazing community that come along with us. We weren’t able to achieve everything that we had set out to do with DwarfHeim during early access, so we’re not going into the v1.0 launch in the way we had intended, but do want to reflect on how much we were able to update and improve DwarfHeim during early access, with thanks to excellent feedback and a close-knit commun

Hey everyone- We wanted to give you an update on the version 1.0 release, and the future of DwarfHeim. We had huge plans for DwarfHeim and wanted to do something new and exciting in the RTS genre. Doing something new inherently comes with risk, but instead of doing something tried and tested we really wanted to try and blaze a new path. We put everything into DwarfHeim but the sad reality we have had to face is that the early access launch did not take off in the way the team had hoped it would. We’ve always listened to and actioned community feedback and worked that into some of the fantastic
