The blacksmith shop management game gets its full release in November!
Publisher Hooded Horse announces that Blacksmith Master, a medieval simulation game developed by Untitled Studio, will be leaving Early Access! The full version of the game will launch on PC platforms on November 19, 2026, available on Steam, GOG, Epic Games Store, and Microsoft Store, deliberately avoiding any clash with AAA game release dates.
Trailer:
In this compact simulation game, take up the mantle of a blacksmith and strive towards ambitious goals. Transform your small workshop into a profitable ironworking business through more complex blueprints, an ever-expanding production chain, and skilled craftsmen. You can either accept large orders from afar or open your own store, steadily progressing on the winding road to success with more stable income filling your coffers.
Blacksmith Master will introduce Master Craftsmen in its 1.0 full release. These specialized employees can unlock special items, sets, and abilities for various professions, significantly boosting workshop productivity. Additionally, players can manufacture siege engines such as ballistae, catapults, cannons, and battering rams to supply the kingdom with military equipment. These complex, large-scale machines present a significant challenge even for the most efficient and diligent workshops.
Since launching in Early Access, Blacksmith Master has received numerous updates, including a coin minting mechanism, adjustments to game progression and salary balance, as well as a complete overhaul of the employee menu and the mastery tree that determines employee skill development, among other experience optimizations.
The game uses English as its source language and supports Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Thai, Korean, Japanese, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Czech, Hungarian, Turkish, Ukrainian, Russian, and Brazilian Portuguese.
Blacksmith Master is currently in Early Access on PC, available for purchase on Steam, GOG, Epic Games Store, and Microsoft Store for 59 yuan.
