Publisher MicroProse and developer Adamant Studios announced that a second playtest for open-world roguelike RPG Knights of Frontier Valley will begin on September 15, 2026. The Version 0.5 playtest will be available through Steam, with sign-ups available now. The Version 0.5 playtest will add companions and party-based tactical options, two new explorable cities, an additional story chapter, new quests and dungeons, expanded crafting, three difficulty options, and more.

Knights of Frontier Valley is inspired by RPGs from the 1980s and 1990s. The game sees players creating their own character and setting out into the world, which includes day/night-cycles, seasons, weather changes, and various townsfolk. It features gridless, turn-based tactical combat with an option to resolve encounters immediately, as well as various classes, skills, and joinable factions.
