- Nominate us for Best Game on Steam Deck! - 24 November 2025
Hey guild! The Steam Awards are upon us, and we might be a biased, but we think The Lonesome Guild would be a great fit for the Best Game on Steam Deck award! The game really levels up on the Steam Deck: the world of Etere is vibrant and beautiful, combat is well-suited to a handheld, and the story itself is perfect to pick up, fight a few battles, rest by the campfire, and put down when you’re on the go. If you think The Lonesome Guild deserves to win the Best Game on Steam Deck Award, you can vote to nominate us until December 1. Thanks for your support!

- The Lonesome Guild is Out Now! - 23 October 2025
The Lonesome Guild, the wholesome ARPG from Tiny Bull Studios, is out now! For the next two weeks, you can get 15% off the game individually, or the Soundtrack Bundle. To celebrate the occasion and to really highlight the friendships, heroism, and vibrancy of the game, we had an animated trailer tailor-made for launch to perfectly capture the vibes of the game, courtesy of Neverdark Studio. You play as Ghost, a spirit who's just woken up in a world that’s fast becoming shrouded by a mist of loneliness. You have no memories, and you can’t physically interact with the world around you. However, you can possess (in a friendly way!) others and make them stronger. So now you just need to find a group of potentially awesome and powerful fighters and help them believe in themselves. Should be easy... right? The more you bond with your unlikely allies, the stronger they become. Unlock the most…
- The Lonesome Guild (PC) Review - 23 October 2025
I think it’s somewhat fitting that I know I saw The Lonesome Guild somewhere, but I genuinely can’t remember where. I remember thinking—without knowing too much about it at the time—that a game that could capture that old feeling of being in an MMO guild and rarely interacting with anyone would be something I could definitely get behind. In truth, it’s actually more than that, and my inability to remember where I first saw it feels like both an indictment of how many gaming showcases take place every year, but it also feels thematically accurate to the game. The Lonesome Guild is a simple and sweet little ARPG that puts connection at its center and finds myriad ways to utilize it. The Lonesome Guild begins in the land of Etere, where a comet had been circling the world, captivated by its beauty and people. However, by some unknown force, the comet is pulled to the surface and is reveale…
- Meet the Characters of The Lonesome Guild! - 21 October 2025
The Lonesome Guild comes out TOMORROW! We figured it was about time you learned a bit more about your unlikely allies and soon-to-be fearsome friends! So without further ado, I present to you, The Lonesome Guild... DAVINCI A cheerful tinkerer, DaVinci is a Bumblebun who inspires all (apart from Mr. Fox!) with his optimism. He’s a Jack of All Trades, bringing utility to the team with both magical and physical damage, as well as healing! MR. FOX Mr. Fox is a grumpy ol’ guy, constantly cynical after the loss of his son. He’s a bit of a glass cannon in combat, with both range and melee DPS. He can also boost the attack speed of the party – let's get this over with! RAN TRAN TRUM Larger-than-life Ran Tran Trum acts tough to fulfil his protector role and tries not to let anyone get close. He’s a tanky boi who excels at engagement and taunts and provides shields to his allies. Oh, and he’s pre…

- An Intro to the World of Etere - 30 September 2025
Ahead of The Lonesome Guild’s release on October 23 (are you excited?!), we thought we’d go a little deeper into the story of the game and the state of the world when you first begin to play. As a quick intro, check out the story trailer! Watch the TrailerOnce per century, one Champion from each kin (species) of Etere is chosen to ascend before the Only One, a God-like entity who in turn makes gods of the champions. But this time, the sacred rite has failed, and it is a deafening silence – not divine, but shadow – that has arisen. A subtle evil seeps through every fissure, darkening the hearts of all it touches – loneliness. That loneliness, so cutting and corrupting, has given rise to a world of negativity: despair, desperation, apathy, and vengeance all run rampant throughout the land. But loneliness is not the only thing to come from the failed Ascension – Ghost awakens, a being who…
