Three Kingdoms : Alias

Three Kingdoms: Alias launched into Steam Early Access on July 14, 2026. The solo developer (Plotrick) has been highly active since launch, shipping a rapid series of feature and bug-fix updates through version 0.5.10, while simultaneously working on the next major milestone: v0.6.0. The developer published a detailed roadmap on July 29, 2026 (Developer Note #2) outlining two large pillars for v0.6.0: a complete overhaul of the domestic administration system and a full rebuilding of the combat system. Developer Notes #3 (August 19, 2026), #4 (September 7, 2026), and #5 (September 22, 2026) have provided ongoing progress updates on both systems. The new combat system introduces simultaneous turns, a fog-of-war information layer, terrain effects, and a full supply chain — described by the developer as "close to making an entirely new game" in terms of scope. The new administration system replaces the old institution structure with a facility-based city management system, a tech tree, officer training schools, and a mentorship system. Beyond v0.6.0, the developer has stated that custom officer creation, an in-game officer editor, and a historical mode are planned for the full 1.0 release. As of September 22, 2026 — the most recent developer communication — v0.6.0 is still in active development with no release date announced. The developer has given no indication of slowing down or encountering difficulties.
