Evaluation

Age of Barbarians Chronicles launched on Steam on March 16, 2026 (following a brief delay from the originally announced March 5 date, during which it launched on the Epic Games Store). Since launch, Crian Soft has maintained a consistent update cadence of roughly every 2–4 weeks, with each update delivering both bug fixes and meaningful new content. Notable post-launch additions include: a new level (Zordax's Fortress, April 21, 2026), two new enemy types (Sorcerer Disciple and Abyssal Larva), multiple new fatality cutscenes, new campfire narrative scenes, and new random dungeons. The largest update so far — Adventure Mode (August 24, 2026) — introduced an entirely new game mode selectable from the main menu, a new randomized Megadungeon, new save slots, narrator voice-overs, new animations, and a wide range of other content and improvements. A follow-up patch on September 2, 2026 added a new achievement and further performance optimizations. The developer has consistently stated their intention to continue fixing reported issues and updating the game on a regular basis. As of today (September 24, 2026), the most recent update was posted on September 2, 2026 — just 22 days ago — firmly within the established 2–4 week update rhythm. The developer has not signaled any conclusion to this update cycle.

About this game

The world is old… ancient.

The tales you are about to hear are lost in the nights of time.

Two moons still shone in the sky, and the world was still young, prehistoric and wild.

Only Atlan, the land of the created, still carried faint glimmers of civilization.

But even it was already too old, too decadent… and would soon vanish forever.

So let me tell you the memories of those ancestral days,

of men and women who fought, prayed, loved, and hated,

so that all would not be lost.

Let me tell you…

The Age of Barbarians’ Chronicles.

KEY FEATURES

A SAVAGE PREHISTORIC WORLD TO DISCOVER

An ancient lost land called Atlan, full of legends, mysteries, prehistoric beasts, nightmarish creatures and dangers of all kinds, populated by civilizations with ancient customs and unique mythology.

REFINED AND BRUTAL COMBAT MECHANICS

The art of combat involves dodges, parries, blocks, attacks of various types, counterattacks, rolls, unbalances, special powers, and blood-filled fatalities.

LOOT ARMOR, WEAPONS AND SHINING TREASURES

The ancient dungeons of Atlan conceal numerous treasures, including powerful weapons, shields, armor, helmets, rings, and so on, which increase your combat efficiency.

OLD-SCHOOL RPG AND DUNGEON CRAWLER

Age of Barbarians Chronicles is drenched in old-school spirit, from its RPG system, based on the tabletop game of the same name, to its Sword & Sorcery setting and classic dungeon-crawling exploration.

BARBARIC COOPERATIVE ACTION

Join forces with a friend and plunge into the savage world of Atlan. Explore deadly dungeons, uncover ancient treasures, and battle together to survive the campaign.

SAVE COMPANIONS AND LET THEM HELP YOU

A party of adventurers is stronger than one hero alone. However, remember that both treasure and experience points are shared among companions.

HANDCRAFTED AND PROCEDURAL DUNGEONS

Many dungeons are carefully hand-designed, but at the same time, you will encounter many others that are procedural, offering you countless combinations and making each exploration unique and rewarding.
