ECONOMIC
SETTLEMENT
SURVIVAL
A fantasy city builder.
A multiplayer world in the making.
THE GAME
A look inside ESS.
Build a settlement. Keep it supplied. Prepare its defences.
We’re developing a city builder where the economy and the people behind it matter — in a multiplayer context.

The Stormvein
Frontier.
The world beyond the settlement: mountain holds, forest enclaves, orc plateaus and a coastline of possible beginnings.
This concept map is part of our exploration of the world of ESS. Names, regions and layouts may change.

ESS is in pre-alpha. The footage here is a development snapshot, and there’s more to do.
