About the Game

The Auric Empire is yours. Every champion. Every arena. Every legend etched into the Hall of Fame. But power is not kept - it is fought for, season by season, decision by decision, death by death.

IRONBLOOD is at it's core, a deep dark fantasy management sim. You run a fighting promotion. You sign fighters, negotiate contracts, build fight cards, and schedule events. Every week you advance time, and the world moves with you - fighters develop through career phases from raw prospect to ageing legend, rivalries form between repeat opponents, morale shifts based on wins and losses, and contracts expire whether you're ready or not.

Every campaign begins with a freshly generated world - new fighters, new lore, new rival houses with their own histories and ambitions. No two dynasties play the same.

Rule your empire. Outlast your rivals. Become legend.

THE WORLD LIVES AND BREATHES Dynamic lore events fire across the empire as you play - in the vein of Crusader Kings, the world reacts, evolves, and surprises.

EVERY DECISION HAS WEIGHT Critical moments are resolved with a d20 roll modified by your Emperor's stats, perks, and achievements.

THE ARENA IS EVERYTHING A deep fight simulation engine drives every bout - round by round, with full commentary, sound effects, voice overs, and a dynamic soundtrack. Permadeath is real.

KNOW YOUR ENEMIES Send spies into rival houses. Scout their prospects. Poach their talent. Disrupt their events.

BUILD YOUR LEGACY Every event, every card, every bout is tracked in full. The Hall of Fame immortalises the greatest fighters ever to compete under your banner.

YOUR EMPEROR, YOUR DYNASTY A deep Emperor stat and perk system shapes how you rule. Your choices unlock unique abilities and define what kind of dynasty you leave behind.

A NEW WORLD EVERY TIME Every campaign generates a fresh database - new fighters, new backstories, new lore, new rival houses.
