Hello Commanders,
This is I M GAME.
We’re excited to announce that Master of Piece will officially launch in Steam Early Access on February 4, 2026.
(As most of you know) Master of Piece is a chess-inspired roguelike deckbuilder set in a dark, gothic medieval world. Instead of cards, you command mercenary pieces on a tactical grid, combining traits, relics, and positioning to build powerful synergies and overcome brutal encounters.
Since our first demo in March last year, tens of thousands of players have joined us, helping the game grow through feedback, balance changes, and new content. Early Access marks the next major step in development—and the beginning of a longer journey toward the full release.
Take a look at our brand-new Early Access Launch trailer!
