About this game
Dive into a living medieval fantasy sandbox RPG where the world lives and acts with or without you. Villagers follow routines, factions compete for power, dangers roam the land, and every decision can create opportunity or disaster.
Become a thief, hunter, or sellsword. Travel alone or build a party. Hunt, steal, trade, fight, and survive in a fully enterable world where every building, cave, and road can become part of your story.
No fake doors. No decorative cave entrances. If you can reach it, you can enter it.
Play solo or build your squad
Create the heroes of your journey. Customize each member of your party’s appearance, hairstyle, physique, and background story to make your mark on the world.
Every choice teaches you something. Earn experience through what you do and unlock skills that keep you alive. Go in loud with brutal weapons, or stay unseen, avoid fair fights, and end threats before they notice you.
Survive, Craft & Build
The world won’t keep you safe; you’ll have to prepare. Stock up, craft gear, and choose how you live: settle in town by renting a house, or roam freely with camps you can set up between expeditions. Hunt, gather, and craft your loadout, then do whatever it takes to survive.
Write Your Own Story
Valorborn is built around player-driven stories, not a single scripted path. Start small and survive however you can. Steal and sell stolen goods. Live off the wilderness and trade pelts for coin. Take contracts and hunt the dangers stalking roads, ruins, and settlements. Tip faction conflicts in your favor, exploit the chaos for profit, or stay out of politics and carve your own path. Your choices shape your identity, your reputation, and your future.
Mechanics Available in Early Access
Living World Simulation
AI characters follow day and night routines, travel, work, and react to danger with or without your involvement.
Sandbox Roleplay
Choose your own path as a thief, hunter, sellsword, or forge your own way through the world.
Faction Tension and Conflict
Kingdoms, guilds, and local groups pursue power, survival, and influence across the region.
Fully Enterable World
Every building, cave, and point of interest is designed to be explored.
Survival Systems
Hunt, gather, manage resources, and prepare for long journeys through dangerous territory.
Stealth, Stealing, and Crime
Pick locks, steal valuables, and profit from risk while living with the consequences.
Camp and Progression Systems
Set up camps, prepare supplies, and build a stronger foothold as your story grows.
Solo or Party Play
Survive alone or build a group and shape multiple lives in the same world.
Permadeath
Death can wait behind every corner, but risk, loss, and adaptation are part of what make each run rewarding.

Auto Work Improvements, Crash Reporter, UIX Progress and More
Hello everyone,We are continuing our work to bring Valorborn closer to the level we want it to reach. Alongside bug fixing and stability improvements, we are also planning the next major steps for the game’s future.With this update, we are releasing several fixes and improvements.Patch Notes 0.1.3aImproved the Auto Work system. Several issues have been fixed, and the system now works more smoothly.The Gather and Pickup actions have been simplified and merged into a single button to reduce confusion.Since Valorborn is still in Early Access, the full world design is not yet complete. Some areas are currently inaccessible. From now on, these world borders will be visible in red as you approach them.Fixed an issue where NPC names, their order, and created teams could break after saving and loading.Added signs to the market and other important locations.Improved troll combat.Added a new crash reporter. If your game crashes, which should now be much rarer after the latest updates, you can easily send us a crash report.Each update puts us one step closer to our vision of the game and we would like to share also some WIP and tools we have created to ease up the workflow to be even more efficient. Bug TrackerThe bug reports and suggestions you send us are extremely helpful in improving the game. However, since we are a small team and receive a large number of reports across Steam, Discord, Reddit, and other platforms, it became difficult to track and organize everything manually.To solve this, we developed a new internal web-based bug tracker that helps us collect, analyze, detect duplicates, and prioritize bug reports and suggestions from different platforms.This allows us to organize all feedback more clearly, focus better on development, and spend less time manually searching through reports.If we have not been able to reply to you directly on Discord or Steam, please do not worry. We are reading and reviewing your feedback and working hard to use it to make Valorborn bet...Read full article on Community Announcements (Laps Games)AnnouncementsOfficial
