Laysara: Summit Kingdom, the promising mountain-themed city builder from developer Quite OK Games and publisher Future Friends Games, has surprise launched on Steam, where it’s expected to remain in early access for between six and 12 months.
Laysara – which sets itself apart from other city builders with its focus on mountainous verticality and theme-appropriate hazards, including avalanches – has been popping up here and there for a while now (it landed on Eurogamer’s radar in June 2022), and was initially expected to launch in 2023. Late last year, though, Quite OK made the decision to push its release into “early 2024”, saying it wanted “some extra time to deliver a polished and complete experience”.
And here we finally are! As announced during today’s indie-focused Triple-i showcase, Laysara: Summit Kingdom arrives on Steam today, with its initial early access release including the ability to build multiple towns on different mountains, as well as “all the most important game mechanics”. These include a “complex transportation system, avalanches and weather breakdowns, and raising the Summit Temples.”
