- Expeditions: Samurai Now Available in Early Access! - 31 August 2026
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 Access, and you can now buy it at a generous discount for the first week if you want to help support our project and have an opportunity to give your input on the game while we still have time to act on it!We're unbelievably excited to share this game with you and collect all your thoughts and suggestio…
- Expeditions: Samurai - Dev Diary #3 - Stealth Gameplay - 31 August 2026
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 stealth mechanics, and show how this new aspect of the game plays together with other new features.Stealth and Advanced AI BehaviorHaving noticed an enemy ambush in the forest ahead, players have split their party and snuck them one by one into position to start combat on their terms and execute a…

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 compared to Rome, but we think it's time to give you a little more substantial information about our progression systems.The Expeditions games have gone through many iterations of progression systems from the very simple resource-management skill system of Conquistador, over the free-form skill syst…

- About the next Expeditions title... - 20 May 2025
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 into full production. If you follow the insider news, you are aware that it’s been a rough couple of years in the game industry. Investment dried up, studios shut down, countless developers lost their jobs, and games were cancelled left and right. We are extremely grateful that there were people w…
