Not only will you be feasting your eyes on a full Stronghold Next reveal this spring, you'll also be getting a brand new game announcement next week! Unrelated to Stronghold but still a classic Firefly Studios strategy game, this new title will be announced on YouTube on Thursday February 7th.

It gives us great please to finally reveal both that our Stronghold Next reveal is planned for the spring and that we're taking Stronghold to E3!

We can't wait to show you what we've been working on in the form of an official Stronghold Discord, feature length documentary, behind the scenes videos and plenty of raw gameplay.

For our other fans we have a brand new game reveal planned for next week, as well as plenty of Stronghold Kingdoms updates.

Following our extensive Mega Q&A series we’re rounding off the year with a full development update for Stronghold Next! We dive into the production, programming, art and design of Next in our first ever dev diary for the upcoming castle sim. Watch as four Stronghold developers provide a snapshot of where we’re at in terms of production, as well as revealing brand new details about the game!

Player feedback is already a huge part of the development for Next and in our end of year update we go into specifics. We’re improving castle walls, adding classic castle life features, a more cinematic single player campaign and more. In addition the team are planning technical improvements including staged destruction for your castle, better textures and of course all-new units with fresh animations.

Multiplayer! Units! Defenses! Our latest and greatest Stronghold Next video reveals brand new details by answering 40 of YOUR questions about the game. Join Nick and Aaron for a detailed discussion about our upcoming castle sim, guided by player questions posted under previous Stronghold Next videos and Q&As.

Ahead of our full production update from the development team next week, today Firefly's community staff shine a light on a few finer details requested by fans. How many Lords can join a multiplayer game? Will there be healing units? Will regular troops be able to knock down castle walls? Together these smaller issues make a huge difference to each Stronghold, so we're taking the opportunity to lay out our plans at this early stage.
