Elemental: Reforged, Remaster of the Classic Fantasy Strategy Game Series, Enters Early Access TodayStardock Entertainment announced that its remaster of the Elemental fantasy strategy game series, Elemental: Reforged, entered Early Access today. The classic sandbox turn-based 4X game series puts the player in the role of a sovereign of a fledgling kingdom in a world that has been devastated by a war of magic. “Elemental: Reforged is the culmination of the vision Stardock had for this series since we started work on it over 15 years ago,” said Bradley Wardell, CEO of Stardock and designer of Elemental: Reforged. “The design of the game was ahead of its time, but limited by PC consumer hardware of the late 2000s. Now with a 64-bit engine, updated graphical fidelity, and a combination of features from all previous releases in the Elemental series, Reforged is exactly what we hoped the ori…

- Epic Fantasy Strategy Game, Elemental returns as Elemental: Reforged - 24 July 2025
Stardock Entertainment announced today Elemental: Reforged, a definitive re-imagining of the ambitious fantasy 4X strategy series Elemental. Integrating the strongest elements from Elemental: War of Magic, Fallen Enchantress, and Sorcerer King, Elemental: Reforged finally brings to life the comprehensive vision originally set out nearly two decades ago.First conceived in 2008 following Stardock’s successes with Galactic Civilizations II and Sins of a Solar Empire, Elemental was planned as the ultimate fantasy civilization strategy experience. Technical constraints at the time, particularly 32-bit memory limitations, prevented the full realization of that ambitious design. The result was Elemental: War of Magic (2010), a highly ambitious game whose innovative concepts were overshadowed by significant technical issues at launch.Stardock learned from these challenges, releasing the acclaim…
- Sorcerer King: Rivals Hotfix - 2 October 2020
We wanted to let everyone know that we've released a small hotfix for Sorcerer King: Rivals. This update fixes a shader bug on some video cards that prevented game objects from rendering (they would be invisible and only appear as a shadow). Thank you to the player community for letting us know!
- Dwarf Lord update and high DPI display support in Sorcerer King: Rivals v2.3 - 3 October 2018
https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F25785971%2F4cf27ce84878d2448b5afec079f870b1f6745a30.jpg The spider-riding Dwarf Lord gets an update in v2.3 for Sorcerer King: Rivals! He now has access to Alchemists and other special buildings that were locked to him before. If a short fellow wielding a battle-axe and riding a GIANT FROST SPIDER with a fierce army supported by alchemists knocking down your portcullis doesn’t freak you out and force you to surrender, I don’t know what will. Oh, did we mention that we updated the front engine so that said Dwarf Lord and the rest of the game is now optimized for high DPI displays? Yeah, that’s a thing, too. Go forth and conquer!

- v2.1 for Sorcerer King: Rivals is Now Available! - 9 March 2017
An anonymous note. A mysterious artifact. An...unusually well-dressed Ogre. What adventures await in v2.1 of Sorcerer King: Rivals? Powerless to stop the rise of the Sorcerer King, you've done your best to care for the people of your small and struggling kingdom. Even as you watched the Sorcerer King's sinister plans spread, you didn't dare step into the conflict out of fear of what he'd do to you if you defied him. Instead, you choose the bliss of ignorance, remaining within your kingdom's walls while the rest of the world is closed off to you. ...That is, until now. v2.1 introduces a whole new campaign that starts in a nearby inn with a single, mysterious letter. The writer has sent you an ancient artifact called the Crux of Az-Adoras, which is capable of piercing the magical wards that seal off your realm from the rest of the Sorcerer King's world. But, where did it come from? Who se…

- Sorcerer King: Rivals Brings Expandalone Godhood - 22 September 2016
Stardock today released Sorcerer King: Rivals , a standalone expansion to 2015’s fantasy turn-based strategy game Sorcerer King. While that was about stopping a dark overlord from ascending to godhood and killing all the fluffy kittens, or whatever it is dark gods get up to, Rivals lets players be y’know rivals. Players get to seek godhood too this time, and I’m sure you have a lot of ideas about what you can do to fix up the world. Maybe magically fix all vending machine so no one ever again ends up on an icy train platform at 2am weeping and shouting at a wonky wire spiral which has cruelly imprisoned their Twix. For starters, anyway. …
