- Europa 1410 - German Translation at EA Launch - 15 September 2026
Seid gegrüßt!As you all know, we will release our new game later this Thursday into Early Access. Many of you asked why, when we announced that the game will be an Early Access title, we removed all languages but English from our Steam store page. The reason is simple: we can only list there what we can provide at the launch of Early Access, not what is planned for the 1.0 release.We are therefore happy to confirm that the game will have German text localization and partial voice-over localization from the start.This means (almost*) all texts are already available in German, and the narrator is voiced by the series' original actor, Aart Veder.*Please note that some texts might still appear in English. The game is in active development, and while we try to keep up with localization with each update of the game, something might slip through. The Early Access release version will have Engl…

Rest assured that we diligently go through every single comment and consider all feedback, even if we do not respond to everything.We have released this demo to give you a glimpse of what we are working on right now and to make sure you know what to expect from the game. We’ve realized that those of you who entered the world of The Guild via its 2nd or 3rd installment might have expected Europa 1410 to be another medieval life sim, which is not the case. While we’ve always tried hard to be upfront and transparent about our goals for Europa 1410 and how they came to be, our messaging was overshadowed by the strong nostalgia for The Guild 2 and 3.

- I've been waiting 20 years for a worthy sequel to my favourite life sim, but THQ Nordic has other ideas - 16 June 2026
I usually expect blank stares when I wax nostalgic about The Guild 2, a rough diamond that's part management game, part life sim, part RPG. It's the kind of game that does well in central Europe but not remotely as well elsewhere. Your classic eurojank romp: big on ambition, not so much on optimisation or clarity. This is the Stalker of life sims... Read more.
