What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Realpolitiks 3: Earth and Beyond is a complex game and given its scope, we want to use the Early Access period to involve the community and receive player feedback that will help us shape the upcoming stages of development, and help us make the very best game we can.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We are planning to have Realpolitiks 3: Earth and Beyond completed and ready for full launch in the first half of 2025. But since we want the game to be perfect (or as close to perfect as we can possibly get) before leaving Early Access, there is a possibility that we will need to prolong the Early Access period and postpone the full version release beyond that time frame.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to add a number of new features and mechanics – possibility to use weapons of mass destruction, implementing martial law, influence of pollution on the environment, different winning objectives for campaigns and much more - even overall different campaign scenarios and recreating historical countries. We are also planning to add more textual localizations to the game at full launch, including French, German, Spanish, Polish, Simplified Chinese and Russian. Of course, due to the nature of Early Access, our plans can change based on community feedback.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version offers three game modes on the map of the Earth and the solar system, with the option to lead any of the 195 countries existing in the game, starting in 2010. Realism mode ties the player to a world which runs very similarly to ours, with pacts dividing the world between several blocs (NATO, EU, etc.). Overdrive mode offers a freedom of experience with all stats cranked up to extreme. With old order being just a flimsy excuse for an all-out brawl between the strongest. Finally, the Sandbox mode lets the player build up from the start and make any country your politician leads a success - and boy, is it a long and hard journey to the top.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yes, we are planning to increase the price once, when we are close to the full release of the game. We will inform everyone about any pricing changes in advance, so that they are able to plan ahead. We will be using the Steam news and Discussion forums as well as various social media channels for any price-related announcements.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We have been using our Discord server and Steam Discussion forums to gather player feedback from those playing the demo and the previous games in the series, and will continue using these channels throughout Early Access of Realpolitiks 3: Earth and Beyond. We hope everyone who gives our game a chance during this period will share their impressions, be they positive or negative. And we encourage everyone to especially post any suggestions to improve the game and report any bugs they might encounter while playing. Last but not least, we will be carefully reading through all the Steam reviews and analyzing the feedback from them as well.”

About This Game

Realpolitiks 3 is not designed to accurately simulate existing countries or their cultures. Instead, it is focused on providing a fun gameplay experience, letting you lead a country in a modern setting and rule it however you choose. To keep each playthrough fresh, countries are partially randomized at the start of every campaign. While borders, political systems, and overall power stay the same, the starting stats and policies will be different each time, providing new challenges and opportunities.

To achieve this ultimate goal, you will have to carefully consider a myriad of decisions, starting with the choice of a country you wish to lead. Any contemporary nation is available for your ambitions, from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe and everything in between.

You will also need to select your optimal form of government, build your cabinet of ministers, improve your character’s skills - all while leading your country’s efforts in economic development, research, diplomacy, espionage or war. Will you lead your people to the stars, or to their ultimate doom?

The politics are becoming REAL!

Influence every aspect of life in your country, from economy and social programs to researching ground-breaking technologies and developing your country with construction projects
Your choices of political leadership and their actions will shift your country’s way of life, from Liberalism to Authoritarian to Tyrannical - allowing you to issue various powerful (but costly) Executive Orders; or unlock new attributes of your National Heritage

Become the politician you’ve always wanted to be!

You have absolute freedom in your choices, but each decision brings consequences
As your country evolves, so must your character by improving your stats and abilities. Realpolitiks 3 brings your personal relationship with your character to the forefront!

It’s lonely at the top… But not quite!

You are no doubt the leader and public face of your country, but for the first time in the Realpolitiks franchise you get to hand-pick your cabinet of government officials. Foster your relationships with their political parties as well, ignore their requests and tasks at your peril!
Pick from 9 available political systems, from monarchy to republic, based on your personal philosophy, or even overthrow the establishment based on purely pragmatic decisions - Viva la revolucion!

The world is your playground!

Utilize extensive diplomatic options - become a part of established international blocs like the EU, NATO or BRICS and influence them from within, or start your own coalition and shape it in your own image; take on a leadership role or simply reap the rewards of membership
The choice is always yours - join one or even multiple different blocs, or opt to be an isolationist country
Invest into other countries and help them develop or leverage your position and strongarm them into puppet states

The sky is NOT the limit!

Don’t limit your ambitions - expand your sphere of influence beyond Earth itself, and impose your politics on any other planet in our solar system. Will you be content colonizing the Moon, will you conquer Mars, or extend your reach as far as Neptune?

Violence is never the answer… Or is it always?

Improve military technologies, build up your armies and make sure they are led by competent generals and officers
Master the art of war and show your strategic genius utilizing the new system of Frontlines, making armed conflict much more dynamic and engaging than ever before
Bring the fight to other celestial bodies, whether to secure your extra-terrestrial colonies, or conquer your rivals on the final frontier

A few small steps for a game, one giant leap for a franchise

Realpolitiks 3: Earth and Beyond brings various additions and changes impossible to deliver in the previous installments
New technology powering the World Map allows not only visual improvements, but also solid optimization, and support for various screen aspect ratios
Reworked combat systems for using airplanes and ships
New dynamic building system - no need to limit yourself anymore when developing each province
