Creator Chronicles roadmap

Origin Studio published a roadmap video rather than a fan-made board. This page walks the systems that video and the launch news actually name. We are not going to invent a Trello column, a secret class, or a date that is not 14 September 2026. If the video and a later Steam post disagree, believe the later post.

The embedded video is Creator Chronicles Game Roadmap. Watch it mid-page, then use the lists below as a checklist against your village plan.

Already sampled in CBT2

Closed Beta 2 asked testers to live with two pieces that the public demo only hints at:

• Tavern — conversation and mood work. This is the missing lever on the mood page. You talk with members instead of only feeding them and hoping they stay.
• Raid 1 — a step past the four normal demo dungeons. Hidden Swamp remains the teaching cave. Raids are why you farm a second triangle and why you should not spend Conqueror lives on a joke Rogue party.

CBT2 was a private build. It is evidence those systems exist. It is not a loot table.

Creator Chronicles Game Roadmap

Landing with the full Steam client

Studio launch copy groups several systems with the 14 September 2026 unlock:

Tavern (full audience). Mood management becomes a building you can walk into, not only a warning tooltip. Plan a plot for it in the village planner even if the demo village cannot host it yet.

Hall of Battle. You submit a trained party and fight parties other guild masters trained. That is asynchronous PvP. It uses the same tank-healer-damage grammar as Hidden Swamp. It does not let a friend drop into your campaign at midnight. Steam lists leaderboards; seasons will publish records. Bring a boring triangle from the party page before you bring a Warlock highlight.

Ranking and seasons. Categories beyond a single ladder. Treat them as extra goals once the village is not on fire. They are not a reason to skip the first trait point.

Party Strategy potions. Extra party-level brews on top of the usual Alchemy shelf. Seran gets busier, not replaced. Keep Alchemy in S on the profession ranks until a patch says otherwise.

Five save slots and better character creation. Isolate a Conqueror experiment from the campaign you like. Reroll the master with the jobs table open. The master still walks into the first dungeon, so a cosmetic-only reroll is still a combat reroll.

Still a single-player chronicle

Nothing on this roadmap turns the campaign into a live raid finder. Parallel parties are already in the design: several groups can fight at once while members level, loot, and earn gold. That is your guild simulating an online game, not you inviting three Steam friends into the same instance.

Auction house trading, Codex completion, land purchases, and fragile members remain the loop. The roadmap adds places to spend a strong roster. It does not replace getting started.

How we will update this page

After 14 September, this page should gain version stamps: what shipped, what slipped, what Raid 2 is called. Until then, the honest list is short. Demo closure on 13 September is not a roadmap item; it is a wall. See launch for the clock and demo for what you lose.

If you only watch one studio video besides the trailer, watch the one on this page. The trailer sells the village. The roadmap sells the work you do after the village stands.
