Combining the best of the simulation and RPG genres, welcome to the world of Valthiria – a sprawling and vibrant land home to many folk and factions, where heroes are forged, and expectations are set.

As the new principal of an up-and-coming hero academy, you are expected to cultivate the very best brave, young heroes the kingdom has to offer.

Send students on quests to resolve pressing issues through-out the realm. Honing their skills and abilities, raise distinguished graduates and further your academy’s prestige.

Your responsibilities may become overwhelming, but your attention to detail and strategic decision making can reward you with more resources, talented new students, and even new job classes to unlock.

Every student is unique! Bringing their own unique combinations of skills, talents, and traits, build relationships with a variety of characters brought to life with their own personal stories and experiences within the world of Valthiria.

Nurture star students in the classroom and on the battlefield with Valthirian Arc’s turn-based combat system.

Encounter and face off against a variety of adversaries using strategic forecasting in the unique round-based battle system, built around tactically queuing actions and moves.

Players are rewarded by having a full view of the battlefield, putting your strategy skills to the test with unique puzzle elements that challenge players to exploit enemy weaknesses.

A statue here, a pond there, maybe a bench or two – the school is yours to design how you please! Take into account the preferences and needs of your students, combined with your personal aesthetic to adorn the grounds and halls of the academy.

Immerse yourself deeper by setting your academy’s uniform colours and pick your banner emblem to really make the school grounds feel like your second home.

‘Valthirian Arc: Hero School Story 2’ will be available on Steam at a special Early Access price this Summer!
