NORSE: Oath of Blood is strictly single-player. The game is a turn-based tactical RPG set in the Viking era where you command a warband through strategic squad battles. All combat, exploration, and narrative decisions are made solo. There are no multiplayer modes, co-op campaigns, or PvP features. The experience is entirely focused on solo tactical mastery.
NORSE: Oath of Blood is a turn-based tactical game where positioning, ability timing, and squad-level decision-making are the core skills — not reflexes. You command a Viking warband through battles that reward strategic thinking: flanking enemies, combining unit abilities, managing stamina and morale, and choosing when to fight or retreat. The game features a narrative campaign through Viking-era conflicts with meaningful choices that affect your warband's composition and story outcomes.
NORSE: Oath of Blood launches February 17, 2026 on PC across all major storefronts: Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG. Console versions for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S are confirmed for Spring 2026, with no specific date announced yet. There are no Nintendo Switch or mobile versions planned. PC players across all storefronts play on the same timeline but are not confirmed to have crossplay between storefronts (each uses separate online services).
Standard Edition: Base game. Special Edition: Includes the base game plus exclusive bonuses — the Full Kievan War Armour Set and the Unique Ulfberht Sword, providing cosmetic and gameplay advantages from the start. Both editions are available for pre-purchase on Steam now. Pre-ordering may provide a discount depending on current promotions — check the Steam store page for current pricing.
NORSE: Oath of Blood occupies a similar tactical space to XCOM (squad positioning, turn-based combat) and Banner Saga (Viking setting, narrative choices, squad management). If you enjoy either franchise, NORSE's emphasis on strategic warband management and historically inspired Viking-era combat should appeal strongly. The game prioritizes pure tactical depth over real-time action, making it a great fit for fans of deliberate, positioning-focused strategy games.
