Betreff:Tactical Roguelite Valor of Man Bolsters for Q1 2026 Launch

Valor of Man is a turn-based tactics roguelite that distills the combat depth and decision-making of grand RPGs into a focused, replayable format. Developed by Legacy Forge and published by Numskull Games, the game is built for time-friendly sessions while preserving meaningful choice and strategic complexity, and is set to launch on PC via Steam in Q1 2026.


From today, players can experience Valor of Man through an extended demo, available now until January 7 2026. The demo allows players to progress to the end of Chapter 2 of the game’s three-act structure, offering a substantial hands-on introduction!

Across each run, assemble and evolve your party by selecting from a wide pool of abilities, weapons, gear, and artifacts. Explore and exploit the demo’s curated selection of upgrades within the first Valor-level difficulty and four core classes. The full game expands this dramatically, supporting deep build experimentation and long-term replayability with an (almost) bottomless vault of diverse unlockables to discover, 9 additional story-developing levels of difficulty, and a total of 12 classes to master each with sub-class variants.

Built with a distinctive reaction-driven combat system, Valor of Man challenges players to think several steps ahead, as every attack triggers an enemy response. Success depends on team planning, positioning, and an understanding of enemy behaviour, rewarding mastery and strategic foresight.
