Medieval kingdom builder Earth of Oryn finally arrives in Early Access on January 19

After a Kickstarter success back in 2022, the medieval kingdom builder Earth of Oryn is set to enter Early Access on January 19th. It looks promising but it's far from finished.

In the Steam announcement the developer said:

Earth of Oryn has been in development for several years as a solo project. Over time, it grew into a deep, systems-driven city builder focused on simulation, atmosphere, and long-term management. As the project evolved, its scope and complexity increased significantly and early access is now the most honest and realistic way to move forward.

This release is not about presenting a finished product, but about opening the game up, letting players experience it in its current state, and continuing development in a transparent and sustainable way.

The original Kickstarter mentioned "Linux and SteamDeck are high on my backlog and should be added to the roadmap after the 1.0 version of the game" but it has been a long time since then.

See the original trailer below which is still the most up to date shown on Steam:

It will be priced at $14.99. They have no estimate on when it will leave Early Access so it could be a long time.
