Current record

What is confirmed for the released game.

Every changing fact on this edition carries a date. Regional availability and pricing can differ, so the official Steam page remains the final purchase reference.

Store state

Released September 9, 2026 on Steam. Use the release page for the dated launch record and confirm the live regional price before buying.

Platform

The current listing confirms Windows PC and single-player. It does not list Mac, Linux, console, or Steam Deck compatibility as supported platforms.

Gameplay path

Start with the gameplay overview, then move into combat positioning, army progression, and campaign systems as separate evidence-backed guides.

How to read this site

Store details are dated checks, developer posts are system descriptions, and troubleshooting pages are individual reports. Those evidence types are not interchangeable.

Help by symptom

Two reported demo issues, kept narrow.

These pages document individual reports and the developer replies available in their threads. Neither is presented as a universal fix.

Japanese characters show as boxes Armor resets or Instant Battle will not start

About this guide

A field manual, not a rumor mill.

This independent fan site keeps dated store facts separate from developer-described campaign systems and individual demo reports.

Warlord: Awaji is developed and published by Darkmatter Games. Confirm purchases, downloads and last-minute release changes on Steam.

The guide avoids filling unknown gaps with guessed controls, prices, formulas, or release behavior. When a public source gives only a qualitative description, the page says so and turns it into a cautious question you can test in the current build. Links between pages preserve that distinction as you move from the demo to combat, army organization, and the campaign.
