Evaluation

Temtem launched into full release on September 6, 2022. The developer, Crema, shipped several major content updates across the game's post-launch life, including Patch 1.5 (September 25, 2023), which added the third and final Mythical Temtem, Umbra variants, a new challenge mode, and a new season — and Patch 1.8 (September 2, 2024), which the developer explicitly described as "Temtem's last big planned patch." In that same post, Crema stated they had "reached our original goals for Temtem, fulfilled — even surpassed — our planned roster of Tems and islands," and that from that point on they would only return "from time to time for small bug fixes, and the occasional balance changes." A follow-up developer post on February 7, 2025 reflected on Patch 1.8 as "the last big planned patch for Temtem," confirming this position. The developer's attention has since turned to new projects in the Temtem universe: Temtem: Swarm (a spin-off that reached its own 1.0 release on April 2, 2026) and Temtem: Pioneers (a new survival/crafting game revealed on April 9, 2026 with an active Kickstarter). Both DLC items on the store — the Original Soundtrack and Digital Artbook — were released at launch in September 2022. There is no unshipped content and no plans for further major updates to the base game.

Patch 1.8 patch notes explicitly state: 'This patch is huge, special and bittersweet: it's Temtem's last big planned patch. From now on we'll meet back here from time to time for small bug fixes, and the occasional balance changes. We've reached our original goals for Temtem, fulfilled –even surpassed!– our planned roster of Tems and islands.'

About this game

Temtem is an online multiplayer creature-collection adventure.



Every kid dreams about becoming a Temtem tamer; exploring the six islands of the Airborne Archipelago, discovering new species, and making good friends along the way. Now it’s your turn to embark on an epic adventure and make those dreams come true.



Catch new Temtem on Omninesia’s floating islands, battle other tamers on the sandy beaches of Deniz or trade with your friends in Tucma’s ash-covered fields. Defeat the ever-annoying Clan Belsoto and end its plot to rule over the Archipelago, beat all eight Dojo Leaders, and become the ultimate Temtem tamer!





These are the floating islands where Temtem and humans coexist peacefully. Each island is a whole different world, but there is something we all have in common – our love for Temtem and Temtem battles! Intrepid tamers like yourself travel on airships to the furthest reaches of the Archipelago to find the best Temtem. Every young tamer dreams of becoming the best…



  • Story Campaign: Journey across six vivid islands and embark on the adventure of becoming a Temtem tamer while fighting against the evil Clan Belsoto.
  • Online World: The days of traveling solo are over. In the vibrant, always-online world of Temtem, tamers from around the world can be seen all around you, living the adventure with you, interacting with you, and fighting to become the best Temtem tamer.
  • Co-Op Adventure: You will be able to join forces with a friend any time and work together towards your next goal. Catch new Temtem, complete a Route, or face off against a Temtem Leader; all while fighting alongside your friend in dual battles!
  • Housing: Buy your own house at Atoll Row and decorate it your way. Buy new furniture, color your walls and you’ll be ready to invite your friends over!
  • Customize: Customize your character to stand out from the crowd and get new cosmetics while you battle other tamers. Pick a silly hat, a comfy sweatshirt, some pants and you’re ready to go! Or maybe you prefer to wear a full-on cosplay of your favorite Temtem?
  • Competitive: Start by choosing 8 Temtem and the pick and ban phase will begin. Take turns with your rival to pick your Temtem and ban theirs. When all the decisions are made and the turns are ended, you will end up with a squad of 5 Temtem and the battle will begin.
