The dark fantasy tactical RPG launches a limited Steam Playtest from January 23 - 30
January 22nd, 2026 -Annulus, a dark fantasy turn-based tactical RPG inspired by medieval warfare, has announced an upcoming Steam Playtest, running from January 23 to January 30, 2026 (PT). Developed by NIRVANA, the game is inviting players to enlist as Vanguard Testers, offering early hands-on access and an opportunity to help shape the future of the project.
Set on the war-torn continent of Noviseth, Annulus places players in the role of a mercenary captain forging their own company amid endless conflict. Recruit and develop a diverse roster of warriors, craft weapons and inscriptions, and make difficult moral and strategic decisions that ripple across both the battlefield and the narrative. Survival, glory, and ambition collide as players challenge not only rival factions but the very rules that bind fate.
Key Features:
