June 16, 2025 - Hooded Horse is excited to share the latest plans for Blacksmith Master, the new medieval management game from Untitled Studios, which launched into early access last month. From coin minting to full-on siege weapons, there are a lot of ways to expand the shoppe over the coming months.
The first new production chain will be coin-minting, which will let you take copper, silver, or gold ingots and convert them into special royal coins. After that, improvements to staff management will add more depth to the workforce players assemble, giving more options around managing their workload and abilities.
A second round of community-requested quality-of-life features will follow that, before we get to the grand finale of this roadmap - a siege workshop! While players may be content to create exquisite cups or masterwork swords for the rest of their lives, the Kingdom has needs, and it needs Big Guns(™). Set up your very own workshop of war and build some castle-cracking siege engines – these complex projects require multiple different components and stages of assembly.
This is only the first wave – there’s plenty more to come after this initial roadmap is complete! Four updates have been dropped so far since the game launched into early access, and the first part of the “June Update” kicked off the game’s update plans with the introduction of new, larger furnaces and reworked ingot storage, among other things.
Blacksmith Master is available on PC via early access through Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store for $19.99 / £17.99 / €19.99 / ¥2,480. Players can also access the game via GeForce Now.
A press kit is available.
