by

As an enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share some exciting news from Campfire Cabal, the studio that has captivated me with their history-steeped tactical RPGs like Expeditions: Rome. After a period of silence, they’ve finally spoken up, revealing that they’ve been secretly working on a new project! On their official website, they reminisced about the last significant update for Expeditions: Rome, which was released in November 2024, and how things have otherwise been rather quiet.

As a dedicated gamer following Campfire Cabal, I’m excited to share some good news! Contrary to rumors, they never shut down their operations. Despite some team members moving on since their last game launch, the studio has been steadily working on its project since 2022. In fact, they’ve just announced that they’ve officially started full-scale production on their new title as of March 2025. Here’s to more exciting gaming experiences from Campfire Cabal in the future!

If you’ve been keeping up with industry news, you know it’s no secret that the game world has faced tough times over the past few years. Funding became scarce, studios closed, many developers found themselves unemployed, and numerous games were scrapped. However, we are immensely thankful for those within our team who worked tirelessly to keep us afloat during these challenging times, and now, we’re thrilled to say that we’ve made it through and are ready to start anew with renewed energy.

In a subsequent section, Campfire Cabal has affirmed that their upcoming project aligns with the Expeditions series, signifying that the studio will continue to delve into authentic historical backdrops, and incorporate strategic role-playing game mechanics throughout its narrative development, storytelling, and turn-based battles.

Instead, the studio has indicated they’re not quite prepared to disclose further details about the game just yet. They did share, though, that the upcoming “Expeditions” installment is set in a distinct time period and geographical region separate from previous games in the series.

The team is holding back on sharing extensive details about the upcoming installment, but they assure us that it follows tradition by being set in a different era of history and a fresh location within the series. Moreover, as with every Expeditions game, this one promises to surpass its predecessor in quality.

In the latest installment of the series, titled “Expeditions: Rome“, the action unfolds in ancient Rome. The player assumes the role of a young Legatus whose father is mysteriously killed by political rivals. As the game progresses, players encounter new allies, face various adversaries, and have the opportunity to make impactful decisions not only through dialogue with other characters, but also via strategic choices within the game’s intense, turn-based battle system.

In “Expeditions: Rome,” players journey through various locations spanning the globe, including Rome, Gaul, Greece, and North Africa. This adventure is enhanced by immersive Role-Playing Game (RPG) mechanics, which offer flexibility for players to explore diverse character builds that cater to their unique playstyles. Additionally, the game offers a loot and crafting system, enabling players to progressively strengthen their characters over time.

In addition to the current game, other titles in the longstanding series are “Expeditions: Viking” and “Expeditions: Conquistador”. The environments of these games are quite clear by their names themselves.
