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

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

A return to the devastated world of Nevendaar

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

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 for 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. The balance between military dominance and diplomacy will be crucial for survival.

Recruit allies and explore an unstable world

Throughout the campaign, you'll be able to recruit companions with unique abilities, shaping your team according to your play style. 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

In addition to bringing back classic races like elves, demons, and the undead, the title introduces new threats and an enigmatic faction of dwarves inhabiting the mountains. Their position in the conflict is still uncertain, adding a layer of mystery to the possible alliances. Each group possesses its own unique abilities, and the combination of these will be essential to winning more complex battles.

A dark and immersive experience

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