News

Against the Storm," a dark fantasy city builder that has received overwhelmingly positive reviews on Steam, will be released digitally for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch on Thursday, June 26, 2025.
Players will build cities while pioneering a world full of threats as a Governor tasked by the "Scorched Queen."

Pioneer a Harsh World Where Multiple Races Live! City Management and Strategy Are Key

"Against the Storm" is not just a simple city construction game.
Players become leaders tasked with restoring civilization by building multiple settlements in undeveloped land to protect the "Smoldering City," while resisting harsh nature and the mysterious, threatening phenomenon known as the "Blightstorm."

「Against the Storm」PR TIMES

In this game, races such as Humans, Beavers, Lizards, Foxes, and Harpies coexist, and players must understand their characteristics and preferences while performing efficient resource management, housing development, and food provision.
For example, by meeting the residents' needs through the production of ale, pie, raincoats, etc., you can increase morale and gain the power to resist the hostility of the forest.
On the other hand, you also need to respond to strict orders from the Scorched Queen, and there are situations where it's difficult to meet all needs.
How to prioritize and lead the city is left to the player's own judgment!

Different Challenge Every Time! Fusion of City Development and Roguelite Elements


PR TIMES

What makes "Against the Storm" particularly noteworthy is that while it is a city builder, it incorporates roguelite elements.
Different terrain, weather, and resource placement appear each time you play, and over 100 types of regional modifiers and 6 biomes demand new strategies with each playthrough.
Because each map has different challenges and benefits, strategy must always be adapted!


PR TIMES

Furthermore, since you can strengthen your base, the "Smoldering City," using collected meta-progression resources, it is designed with a meta-progression system where experience gained from each settlement is utilized in the next challenge.
The balance between danger and reward is also excellent, allowing you to experience both tension and a sense of accomplishment, such as treasures and ancient relics obtained by exploring the forest, or unexpected threats.


PR TIMES

As a pioneer, players will repeatedly establish new settlements while building their own strategy and network.
Inter-city exchange and trade are also possible, and the connections between cities will likely add depth to the game experience.
It is noteworthy to see how this title, which boasts sales of over 1.5 million copies worldwide, will expand on home consoles!
