Developer Notorious Studios, formed by Blizzard veteran Chris Kaleiki (World of Warcraft, Wrath of the Lich King, Mists of Pandaria), has worked closely with the game’s community over the past eleven months, shaping and improving the core multiplayer experience, adding in brand new maps and new classes such as Paladin and Wizard.
Eldegarde’s 1.0 launch also introduces a PvE mode, allowing more casual players to jump into the classic pulp fantasy-inspired world of Eldegarde, learning its combat mechanics and map intricacies without the threat of other players.
“We’re incredibly excited to finally launch into 1.0,” said Chris Kaleiki, Founder of Notorious Studios. “Early access has been an incredibly useful and rewarding experience, allowing us to shape and refine our game alongside our dedicated community.”
“Beginning life as a hardcore PvPvE game, over time we learnt that players also wanted a PvE experience, something akin to a ‘mini-MMO’, if you like. Eldegarde is indicative of that effort; it is the name of the world in the game, which now provides a variety of experiences including PvE, PvP Arenas, a Social Hub and PvE Dungeon, ready to welcome in new and returning players alike.”
Eldegarde launches into 1.0 on Steam on 21 January 2026. In the meantime, players can still purchase the game in Steam Early Access today, and upgrade to 1.0 for free come January.
