Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access will provide an outstanding opportunity to reach a wide audience before the game is finished. The feedback of the community will be an essential resource to polish and improve the gaming experience.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Given the current plans, I expect the game to stay in Early Acces for about a year, but it is difficult to make an accurate prediction at the moment. I will do my best to keep you informed of any significant changes.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“I plan to include new chapters, from the mop-up operations in Gaul to the entire civil war against the Pompeians, with additional battles and events. The designed new content envisages the transfer of the player character to new legions, to take charge of centuries other than the one led during the first half of the game.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version contains the first ten parts of the game out of twenty planned. It starts at the beginning of Caesar's Gallic War and ends right after the battle of Alesia. It is fully playable.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“A small price increase at the end or close to the end of Early Access is likely.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“I will regularly check the Steam Discussions forum for feedback and opinions. Of course, I can't promise I will follow every suggestion, but I will give thought to everything that is discussed and proposed.”

About This Game

Never Second in Rome is a turn-based historical game with RPG and management elements. You take the role of a Roman centurion in the army of Julius Caesar.

In a Republic dominating the Mediterranean World and yet shaken by internal strife, still traumatized by the horrors of the civil war that marked the previous generation, the arrival of a new governor in your province will initiate a succession of events that will ultimately define the future of Rome and its empire.

Starting right before the beginning of the Gallic War, you will assume command of a century in a newly raised legion.
