Bulwark: Falconeer Chronicles is an upcoming open-world builder with a steampunk twist. At the centre of this 3D sandbox is the player’s ability to build anything they want, from fortresses to trading hubs.
We can’t wait to play Bulwark: Falconeer Chronicles when it drops on March 26th which is why we’ve put together this blog post highlighting everything you need to know. From gameplay deets and official PC specs to our top PC recs.
Build Your Very Own Bulwark
In this vibrant new world builder, you’ll have complete freedom at your fingertips, allowing you to build anything you desire. From sprawling towns, spires, fearsome fortresses, trading hubs, to grounds for conquest. Anything you want in your Bulwark, you can build it.
The world has been shattered by those who came before you. You’ll need to completely reforge the last remaining settlement on the Great Ursee. Scavenge for resources to grow your settlement to expand its population and skyline.
For your settlement to thrive, you’ll need to create trade routes and build alliances with other factions. Arming your Bulwark with powerful Captains and Commanders will protect your settlement from ancient enemies and aid in further exploration.
Explore an Open-World
In the huge expansive open-world, you can explore every corner of the Ursee as you hunt down precious resources and forge alliances with factions. There is opportunity lurking everywhere and it’s up to you to discover it.
Create Without Limits
What’s more, there is also a dedicated ‘Freebuild Mode’. With no conflicts and challenges, you are free to unleash your creativity. There are no limits on gameplay or required resources and upgrade parts, allowing you to build the Bulwark of your dreams.
The building mechanics have been inspired by powerful 3D modelling software and kitbashing, to deliver an immersive building experience. All of which you can do to the backdrop of an eclectic soundtrack, created by award-winning composer Benedict Nichols.

Bulwark: Falconeer Chronicles will be released as a single-player game. However, who knows? Maybe a cheeky update in the future will include support for multiplayer. We can hope.
