Forturia: Trade Route Pioneers launched in Early Access on Steam on October 27, 2026. This version features a single-player campaign spanning four chapters and a competitive battle mode for up to four players.
In battle mode, players can compete against the AI or other players, with support for both online and local multiplayer. The campaign features a story based on the real world, unfolding through a main storyline alongside character-specific side stories. The game also implements 'Navigator Rank' and 'Skill Card' systems that reflect progress earned through repeated playthroughs.
The game is set in 'Forturia,' a fantasy world inspired by the 16th-century Age of Discovery. Taking on the role of a young captain leading a small trading company, players move along trade routes using dice rolls, check goods and market prices at each port to trade, and build wealth to grow their company.
During voyages, players choose ports and travel routes for buying and selling trade goods, while also charting unknown sea routes or taking on royal decrees from various kingdoms. Competition with rival captains, events occurring during voyages, and dice rolls combine with player choices to shape the journey's outcome.
Development was handled by Club Katz, with publishing by FUJIYAMA ENTERTAINMENT LLC. A playable demo was previously released on August 14, 2026, and the official full version is scheduled for release in 2027.
FUJIYAMA ENTERTAINMENT LLC stated that during the Early Access period, it plans to conduct balance adjustments, bug fixes, and quality-of-life improvements based on player feedback. Details on future updates will be announced via Steam News and official X.
