ABOUT Firefly Studios

Firefly Studios

We are the BAFTA nominated developer behind the classic RTS 'castle sim' series Stronghold!

Firefly Studios has remained active since 1999 with staff past and present responsible for many high quality historical (and very occasionally sci fi!) titles. We've worked with big publishers, befriended smaller ones, tried our hand at consoles, launched a successful free-to-play title based on our own IP, moved from boxed to digital and even released Stronghold on mobile!

At our heart however we are a PC strategy games developer with a love of trebuchets (the superior siege weapon), base-building and gong farming. Currently working on Romans: Age of Caesar.

This title is many people’s favourite old-school 2D RTS, so taking this cult favourite and elevating it for the modern player has been an endeavour of passion for us – One that is only possible because of the community’s clear desire for this kind of classic strategy experience. The best way we could think of thanking you for your support has been to go above and beyond, with new AIs, missions, modes and maps, as well as the Steam multiplayer and workshop integrations that the original could never have had.

What better way to kick off the Steam RTS Fest than a demo of this reinvented gem, heralded with a shiny new reveal trailer, masterfully scored by the legendary bard of Stronghold himself, Robert L. Euvino! This trailer showcases the depth of work and love poured into the remaster. We really hope you enjoy it!

Flex your might against 20 challenging AI lords, charge through the new co-op trail with a friend or dive into skirmish mode featuring larger maps, custom options and quality of life fixes. Stronghold Crusader: Definitive Edition allows you to revisit a reimagined strategy classic and play exactly the way you want to!

Wishlist Stronghold Crusader: Definitive Edition now on Steam ahead of the game’s full release on July 15th 2025 and play the demo right now!

Valley of the Wolf & Spring Update - Coming April 30th!

28 March, 2024 - FireFlyNick | 1 Comments

Snarls Soon you will see what it means to wage real warfare! That is... In our final instalment of the Stronghold: Definitive Edition 'Jewel' campaign! Valley of the Wolf extends the base game with seven new missions and extra achievements. Under the tutelage of the wise Sergeant, finish the fight by rescuing Sir Longarm's captured kin once and for all, when this new DLC releases for $2.99, €2.99 and £2.49 on April 30th.

This final chapter of 'The Jewel' campaign pits players against the greatest rogue of them all... The vicious Wolf! To safely retrieve the Jewel of the North and put an end to The Wolf's insidious scourge, players must plunge directly into the belly of the beast and bring the fight to his borders. Against great odds in unfamiliar territory, survival alone demands that nothing is held back.

Also arriving on April 30th as part of our 'Spring Update' is a second castle trail of 10 siege scenarios. This new 'Noble Trail' will arrive alongside additional maps for Multiplayer, Free Build and Siege modes, with the exciting (and long overdue!) introduction of our first ever Polish castles to be featured in a Stronghold game.

Malbork, the fortress erected by the Teutonic Order to signify their Prussian conquest, Biskupin, an ancient stronghold built at the dawn of Rome, and Niedzica, a daunting gothic castle that Dracula himself would be proud of, will all be found in the new castle trail, while another castle, Ogrodzieniec, will be playable as a standalone map through Siege mode.

We would like to thank our Polish fans who suggested these epic citadels online and in person last year, at events like Gamescom and EGX. Your support for Stronghold: Definitive Edition has been incredible and we hope to bring demos of future Stronghold games to events in Poland. So please keep an eye on our socials for the latest news!

Be sure to return on April 30th and check out our full patch notes at release. These will include a run down of other minor features, fixes and improvements coming to the game as part of the Spring Update in version 1.3.

Thanks for playing!

Please add Stats tracking and leaderboards to Stronghold Definitive edition to help with the replayability aspect and keeping players engaged in the multiplayer.

Why don't you release this game, which means so much to me, for the MacOS operating system? Greetings from Türkiye

NICE :D

Wood needed.

Night time maps would be interesting as well (fire arrows) or a day night cycle that is switchable for multiplayer.

~Yak~ 6 May, 2022 @ 11:02pm

Just saw that a new game was in the works. Hope to see a remastered version of the original Stronghold combined with the best ideas from Crusader/SC2. Would be great to have massive armies (thousands), green forest-filled maps, modern graphics, moats, ladders, all the siege etc.
