Expeditions: Samurai Trailer Focuses on Core Features

THQ Nordic and Campfire Cabal released another trailer for historical-themed strategy RPG Expeditions: Samurai. The 90-second gameplay trailer gives a quick look at some of the game’s core features, such as its feudal Japanese setting, turn-based combat, stealth, diplomacy, and full two-player co-op.

Expeditions: Samurai is set to release on Steam Early Access on August 7, 2026, with a full PC release planned for 2027. The game is set in a version of early 1600s Japan where William Adams’s role as Japan’s first European Samurai is usurped by the player character on account of them arriving first. Arriving onboard the Dutch frigate “De Albatros” as the new leader of a crew of privateers, players are drawn into a civil war, with their choices determining the fates of their crew and the future of Japan.
