New and Updated Content

New Main Menu and Rulesets

The first thing you will see is an overhauled main menu that now includes rulesets! Customise your new games using a selection of adjustable rules. Whether you prefer a more relaxed and creative experience or wish to challenge yourself with a higher difficulty, you can now do so at your leisure.

All New Heraldry System

Display your banner with pride! You can now create and customise your village with the new Coat of Arms editor.

Revamped Aspirations

Will you dedicate your efforts to building a thriving priory or craft a magnificent stronghold to win the King's favour? Choose an Aspiration to uncover new ways to play, challenging you to create a unique and distinctive village.

New and Improved Villager Residential Tiers

Residential housing has been revamped for a more seamless and organic experience. Additionally, you can expand your city further with the highest density and quality residential tiers, allowing for more village customisation options.

Improved Progression System

Unlock content seamlessly and enjoyably with a refined progression system, adding depth and strategic opportunities to your city-building adventure. We have also removed the estate trade-off, so you can now concentrate on a single estate or aim to keep everyone happy.

Each estate has a different focus, whether that be a focus on Kingdom Military rewards, Labour estate taxation, or improving trade relations via the Clergy pathway. The choice is yours!

New Onboarding Experience

Whether a new player or a seasoned veteran, the updated onboarding quests and visual aids are now easier to follow, helping everyone find a perfect start to their village.

New Military System and Castle Monument

Take on new challenges with a refreshed military system that will have you create Companies to send abroad and have them bring back precious resources and gold coins.

Naturally, these Military Companies need a home fit for a king, and what makes a better home than a Castle! Flex your creativity by building and customising your Castle from various parts, much like other Monuments.

New and Improved Walls

Walls are now fully integrated into the building system. Plan and build your walls to add fortification coverage to your village. Some buildings require fortification coverage to function.

Patrols and Fortifications

Alongside the new buildable walls, you will also discover Watchtowers and Guard placements adding further fortification options to your settlement.

Medium-density residential tiers now require consistent patrol coverage. Patrols can be formed from a City Watch in the Labour estate or by tasking your Military with the job of keeping your village secure.

Paved Roads

Meet the needs of the new high-tier housing with our new paved road mechanic, tailored to support your most developed areas. A new paint tool is now available to give you complete control of where you wish paved roads to be created.

Extendable Buildings

Some workplaces, such as the Woodcutter Camp, Warehouse, and Stonemason, can now be expanded with new parts to increase storage, worker slots, and more!

More Building Customisation

Most Monuments can now have their roof colour customised to your liking, offering more choices for their appearance. Additionally, some building parts have varying cosmetics and can be easily switched while editing via the new part-switcher feature.

Enhanced UI

We have significantly streamlined the user interface throughout the game. From a new main menu, progression tree, and tooltips, to an improved Book providing in-depth information about your village, not to mention a massively overhauled Monument design experience. All implemented to improve gameplay and enhance your city-building efficiency.

Monument building has evolved, allowing you to move and replace parts with minimum fuss, helping you customise your Monuments more seamlessly.

Enjoy a Completely Revamped Art Direction!

Dynamic Environment Overhaul

Your Cities will now take on a completely new look and feel, helping you experience Foundation in a whole new way. Enhanced map creation, refined lighting, map edges, and major environmental changes, all of which bring more depth and immersion to your city-building adventure.

Revamped Art and Assets

Discover updated visuals to all buildings, including an elaborate new Manor House and the brand new Castle Monument. With more detail and realism for every building, your cities will be the talk of the realm!

New and Improved Animations

Get a closer look at your Woodcutters as they chop down trees, observe your Villagers during their leisure time, or track your Hunters as they look for animals to hunt. All new and enhanced animations bring your Villagers to life, adding greater immersion to your cities.

New Cosmetic Time of Day Switcher

Switch between day and night to see your village come to life during the darker hours.
