Greetings survivors!

As we promised just a few weeks ago, we decided to make some improvements to the game based on your feedback. In your reviews and posts across our social channels, we found a lot of positive opinions about the game - but also a lot of requests to introduce more content, to keep the joy of playing the game for longer, in a unique setting - since so many of you wanted to play more!

A new scenario, named the ‘Lost Caravan’ tells the story of a caravan crew - ambushed and besieged inside a caravanserai on a harsh southern desert. You will face new challenges, meet new characters and test your time and resource management skills in a new economy, customised for the new setting.

Today's update also includes a new system for morning events - which we announced earlier - that is already included in a new scenario and will be implemented in the base scenario soon, because we wanted to reserve some more time to make it even better.


The new story takes place two years after the end of the Siege of Edring. A group of survivors - attacked by the advancing enemy - is trapped inside an abandoned caravanserai and are making a last stand, facing not only the enemy attacks but also scorching weather and unexpected deadly danger, relentlessly rolling over the desert.

Your task will be escaping the trap, in a limited amount of time, while holding the walls and preparing an escape route.

The new scenario will be unlocked to everyone who reached or will reach the seventh day in the Siege of Edring scenario (you have to own the full game). It will ensure more hours of gameplay and will be a unique experience. We hope you will like it!


The unforgiving southern sun is a threat in itself. Since - in the new scenario - you are managing your camp during the night when it is cooler, and scavenging during the day when the enemies are less active because of the heat; but you need to avoid staying outside too long, otherwise you will get sick from the heat.


Every few days a sandstorm will hit the area which will have an impact on gameplay; while the biting dust - choking throats and lungs – will increase your chances of getting sick, it will also reduce visibility for both you and your enemies when scavenging. It is a risk to go outside since your orientation will be much less efficient. But taking such risk can be sometimes needed (or at least very profitable).


In two weeks from now, after gathering your feedback about the new scenario, we will prepare an update that will include balance changes, morning events to the Edring Siege, and some of the convenience improvements we are working on. We wanted to share the new scenario with you as soon as possible and we are already working on the challenges and New Game + mode for "Lost Caravan", which will also be introduced in the upcoming update.

We are grateful for your support and cheering for us! Thank you for your patience and trust, and we hope you will have a lot of fun with the new story!

The big day is finally here - Siege Survival: Gloria Victis is now available!

The savage fleet landed on the nearby river shore, and merciless invaders pillage the city of Edring at this very moment, marking their way to the high castle with fire and blood.

You are the last hope of the few civilians trapped behind cold, stone walls and a handful of brave defenders barricaded on their last stand in the castle Bastion.

As a commander, will you be brave and wise enough to ensure your people's safety until the relief forces will come?

You can now fully immerse in the unique game experience of Siege Survival!

Those of you who already tried the Prologue or Demo in the most recent days (after the update on May 13th) will be able to continue your gameplay in the full game. All players who played the Prologue or Demo earlier will need to start their journey again - but you will receive instant access to the Challenges and New Game Plus mode, which will allow you to adjust your gameplay to your preferences.

Once again, we want to thank you all for your continued support throughout the development process. With your love, feedback, and cheering we were able to make Siege Survival even better. We are extremely happy and proud of the outcome. We can't stress our gratitude enough and we are hoping you will have a good time playing our game.

Our team will also be monitoring all of our channels including game Steam Hub, all our Socials, and support@gloriavictisgame.com email address to provide you with the best possible experience, collect your feedback, and any bug reports that may require prompt action.

Thank you in advance for your commitment and help, and may your walls remain strong, the castle crew never starve, and Bastion defenders' swords stay sharp!


Much love
- Siege Survival Dev Team

Greetings, survivors!

As we already know the exact date of the Siege Survival release, we cannot wait for the upcoming Tuesday, when you will be able to fully dive into the immersive experience we prepared for you and when you take control of besieged civilians on their last stand.

The upcoming days are the best time to get back to the Prologue and ensure a headstart that will allow you to continue your gameplay in the full version of the game. After today's update, the saves from the Prologue and Demo (both have the same content) will be fully compatible with the full game, so after release, you will be able to continue your journey without needing to start from square one. Pretty convenient, right?

It is absolutely worth checking the Demo version of the game one more time, since we made ALOT of user experience improvements, introduced many new features, and reworked some of the old ones following your suggestions and feedback. You will be positively surprised how the game evolved and how much better it is now, thanks to you and our team efforts.

We are very proud and thankful for your continuous support and cheering for us. As a small thanks and also as a little preview, we are happy to share with you a track from our stunning Siege Survival soundtrack, created by the world-famous duo Marcin Przybyłowicz and Magdalena Ubrańska.

We hope this beautiful piece of music will sweeten the waiting through those few days that we need to wait until the release day.

Till then, stay safe!

Greetings, survivors!

After thousands of hours of hard work of the entire team and taking extra time to address your feedback and suggestions, we are pleased to announce that we can share the release date of Siege Survival: Gloria Victis.

We're on the very last straight, right now we are making the last polishing touches and focusing on the marketing of the game, to spread the word about the heroism of Edring people trapped behind the walls. They feel ready, we feel ready, the game is ready, and right now we should focus to ensure that everything will go smooth on the release.

We know that a lot of you are waiting for some time, and we are very thankful for your cheering and patience. We can finally reveal, that the siege will begin on Tuesday, 18th of May. Less than three weeks from now!

Be sure to check the updated demo of the game, which includes almost all the changes and improvements we prepared in the last months, and to add the game to your wishlist. To please you during the last days of waiting, we are encouraging you to join our Socials, Discord[discord.gg], and check the newest trailer and gameplay of the game.

Stay safe!

Greetings, Survivors!

We have great news for you!

Today is a day when we can share with you the progress of the game development and show you how the game changed in recent months. We heard your feedback and we are thankful for your suggestions which helped us a lot to make Siege Survival even better!

To put you in the proper mood, before telling you some more, let's watch our new "Siege of Edring" trailer first. We hope you'll like it!

The months between releasing the Prologue and today were very busy for us since we received tons of feedback worth addressing and continued our work on extending and upgrading existing systems. Among many things done, we reworked scavenge guards, to make the mechanics related to them more player-friendly. We remade the tutorial system to make them more informative and clear. Finished the work on the map system to make it better visually and more useful in-game. We created a set of tools that will help you plan your gameplay and get knowledge about the possible ways to survive, like showing lists of available buildings and recipes related to them. And we also introduced a time management system to give players the possibility to slow down or speed up the time in the castle.


On that occasion, we are giving you the updated Prologue version with all the improved features and changes to allow you to check them by yourselves. Since the core game code of the game has been changed due to the improvements and optimization, saves that were made before today's update will not work, you have to start a new game to experience the new build. We are aware that it may be small trouble but with such deep and extensive changes, it was absolutely justified to sacrifice compatibility between game versions. We hope this small inconvenience will be balanced with your refreshed game experience and you will be blown away by the progress we made!


To spread the word about the game in the world we decided to share an extended preview version of the game to media and content creators. You can check a special version of the gameplay today and in the following days by visiting some YouTubers and Streamers. The Preview version of the game is a week longer than the Prologue and has access to parts of the city, buildings, recipes, and characters not shown anywhere before! If after playing the new Prologue you have to know what is the next chapter of the story, be sure to look for videos and content on Youtube and Twitch!

We also prepared our short narrated video showing some gameplay after day 7, so it would be great if you could leave some love for the game in the comments and a thumb up if you like the changes!
And that would be all for now. We are continuing our work and preparing for the release. If you have any questions or suggestions, do not hesitate to drop them here in our Community Hub!

Play the new Prologue, add the game to your Wishlist, follow Siege Survival on Facebook[www.facebook.com] and Twitter, and continue being awesome!

Much love and stay safe!

Join us at the Steam Game Festival to play the new updated Demo version of Siege Survival: Gloria Victis!

In the Demo, you’ll play through the beginning of the main story and see for yourself all the improvements and changes in the game, many as a result of your feedback and suggestions. You’ll find some significant user interface improvements and user experience changes if you want to compare our old Prologue!

We extended the building mechanics, adding the ability to cancel building orders and dismantle standing buildings which allows you to retrieve some of the materials used in its construction.

The guards’ AI is now more balanced, so you’ll find it easier to perform a sneak attack while holding a weapon and approaching from behind. However, they are now more efficient when searching and will now use arrows if they cannot catch up to your character.

Scavenge features, including movement and fighting, became more intuitive and user friendly since we added some safeguards to ensure players will not get punished too much for making mistakes. But remember, patience is a virtue and the enemy guards are not your friends.

The game economy has been rebalanced, with some changes to what items are and are not available, along with some amendments making some more suited to the vision and immersion in the game.

We added an excellent map extension that will show you supplies available in each city district which will help you plan your scavenging routes more effectively before going out. We also reworked the night actions screen, allowing you to select which items you need on each mission more intuitively and making them easier to remember.

Some of the changes we’ve made are in parts of the game beyond the Demo since many of the game mechanics and features are introduced later, but we hope you like what you see so far and we’re working hard to ensure the final release will be all we want it to be and more.

Today is a big milestone for us! We’ve partnered with Koch Media[www.kochmedia.com] for our upcoming digital PC release of Siege Survival: Gloria Victis, which will be released under its Ravenscourt games label.

Not only does this mean we’ll be able to reach more gamers across the world and grow our Community, but it also means we’ll have the resources to deliver a truly amazing game to you all!

As you know, work started on Siege Survival: Gloria Victis two years ago by an external team, with our full support and supervision. We’ve now successfully integrated the two teams and secured future development of both Siege Survival and our startup project, Gloria Victis MMORPG.

We’re also delighted that Siege Survival: Gloria Victis is a key title in the Steam Game Festival: Spring Edition – which gets underway from 3 February at 18:00 GMT featuring our new fully playable and updated demo allowing players to experience the first days of the siege, taking you through the basic tutorials of gathering, crafting and scavenging as well as allowing you to explore part of the besieged city.

We hope you’ll enjoy playing the demo as much as we’ve enjoyed making it.

Greetings, Survivors!

We wanted to give you the latest update on the development of Siege Survival: Gloria Victis.

We’re pleased to say that everything seems to be going well and we’ve got some great news regarding the upcoming Steam Game Festival: Spring Edition: we’ll be there with an updated demo allowing you to play the opening prologue of the game.

On top of that, our awesome soundtrack DLC is available for wishlisting too!

From everyone here at the studio, we want to thank you for your patience and cheer; we couldn’t do this without you. We are still getting lots of constructive feedback from those of you who have already tried the Prologue, so please keep it coming as your help and opinions are invaluable. We’re working hard to make Siege Survival even better, so we are thankful for your understanding, regarding our decision to allocate some more time before release.

Instead of giving you a long list of things we added, changed, updated, and improved, we thought it will be better to give you a sample of our work and let you compare the changes and improvements for yourselves, although we’ve outlined some of the significant changes below.


In the prologue, you’ll play through the beginning of the main story and see for yourself all the improvements and changes in the game, many as a result of your feedback and suggestions. You’ll find some significant user interface improvements and user experience changes in the updated prologue demo.

We extended the building mechanics, adding the ability to cancel building orders and dismantle standing buildings which allows you to retrieve some of the materials used in its construction.

The guards’ AI is now more balanced, so you’ll find it easier to perform a sneak attack while holding a weapon and approaching from behind. However, they are now more efficient when searching and will now use arrows if they cannot catch up to your character.

Some of the changes we’ve made are in parts of the game beyond the demo since many of the game mechanics and features are introduced later, but we hope you like what you see so far and we’re working hard to ensure the final release will be all we want it to be and more.

Also, we are happy to announce...


We had a lot of positive feedback on the music within the game, so you’ll be pleased to hear that the soundtrack of Siege Survival: Gloria Victis will be available as a DLC and you can wishlist this already.

The soundtrack contains 15 breathtaking tracks composed and recorded by the acclaimed Marcin Przybyłowicz and Magdalena Urbańska. We hope you will find joy in listening to them and appreciate them as much as we do. Be sure to add the Soundtrack DLC to your wishlist!
