Preparing Armada Ascendant for Steam Early Access

The complete sixty-mission Concord campaign is in place, and the current work is focused on hardening the Windows build, incorporating playtest feedback, and building the public support and community structure around it.

Armada Ascendant is planned to enter Steam Early Access in March 2027. A free demo is planned for February 2027, featuring Operation I: Still Waters and Skirmish progression up to a 50-point fleet budget.

The campaign is complete. Early Access is intended to improve balance, usability, artificial-intelligence behavior, presentation, and the decisions that make fleets distinct. Updates will be announced when they are tested and ready rather than on a fixed weekly schedule.
