Stormgate is an upcoming real-time strategy video game developed by Frost Giant Studios.
Stormgate is a real-time strategy game set in a post-apocalyptic world. As standard for the genre, players concurrently gather resources, build bases and troops, and upgrade assets. The game will be free-to-play with free and monetized content. It is being developed to make a typically complex genre accessible to new audiences while providing the option of balanced, competitive one-on-ones for more advanced players. [2]
Former Blizzard developers Tim Morten and Tim Campbell founded Frost Giant Studios in October 2020 with intention to build an accessible real-time strategy game. Morten previously was StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void's production lead, and Campbell had been Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne's campaign lead designer. They raised nearly $5 million in seed funding, [3] an additional $5 million in March 2021, [4] and $25 million in its January 2022 Series A funding. [5] Frost Giant debuted Stormgate in June 2022. A closed beta started during December 2023. [2] As of February 2024, Stormgate is expected to enter early access later in 2024, followed by a full release of the game one year later in 2025. [6]
Stormgate's early access period [...] will kick off at some point later this year, and Frost Giant plans for it to last right around one year in total. After this, Stormgate will fully launch.
