Kalypso Media has confirmed the release of Disciples: Domination, a new chapter in the acclaimed tactical RPG franchise with a dark aesthetic. Scheduled for release in 2026, the title will take players back to the kingdom of Nevendaar, now in ruins, fifteen years after the events of Disciples: Liberation.

Disciples: Domination promises to deepen its strategic formula by incorporating moral decisions, political disputes, and an even denser and more challenging setting.

A return to the devastated world of Nevendaar

The universe of Disciples: Domination is steeped in decadence and conflict. Nearly two decades after the fall of divine rule, Nevendaar faces new dangers from within. Avyanna, once a symbol of revolution, now must face the consequences of her rule, shrouded in doubt, betrayal, and the imminent threat of ruin. Thus, each player's decision will directly influence the world's outcome, reinforcing the narrative's branching nature.

Strategy, power and political consequences

The combat system remains based on turn-based tactics, but now gains new elements that expand the strategic depth. Managing the city of Illyan becomes essential to maintaining alliances between factions and securing resources. These dynamic relationships with the world not only affect gameplay but also alter how NPCs and regions react to the protagonist. Balancing military dominance and diplomacy will be crucial to survival.

Recruit allies and explore an unstable world

Throughout the campaign, you'll be able to recruit companions with unique abilities, shaping your team to suit your playstyle. Offensive, defensive, or support units must be chosen wisely, as the challenges adapt to your decisions. The vast lands of Nevendaar hold dangerous areas, but also secrets, artifacts, and stories that expand the lore of the universe.

Factions, monsters and emerging threats

Besides returning classic races like elves, demons, and undead, the title introduces new threats and an enigmatic faction of mountain-dwelling dwarves. Their position in the conflict remains uncertain, adding a layer of mystery to the potential alliances. Each group has its own unique abilities, and combining them will be essential to winning more complex battles.

A dark and immersive experience

With enhanced visuals and an atmospheric soundtrack, Disciples: Domination maintains its signature dark fantasy style, combining gothic elements, moral dilemmas, and meaningful decisions. The campaign is designed to offer multiple endings, encouraging multiple playthroughs and increasing replayability. Furthermore, Avyanna's journey, marked by redemption or destruction, will be entirely in the player's hands.

Disciples: Domination will be released in 2026 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PCs via Steam, Epic Games, and the Microsoft Store.
