Quantic Dream’s first multiplayer game ‘Spellcasters Chronicles’ launches in Early Access

The most unlikely Quantic Dream game to date has arrived. Spellcasters Chronicles is the studio's first foray into multiplayer PvP gaming. The game is now available through the Steam Early Access programme, with a roadmap of updates planned out for the months ahead.

Early Access marks the start of an open “Workshop” phase, where players are invited to help shape balance, progression and long‑term features. Unlike previous closed betas focused on stability, this stage shifts toward refining mechanics, iterating on systems and testing new ideas based on community feedback. Quantic Dream says player input will directly influence priorities and future content throughout development.

Alongside the launch, the studio has outlined its Early Access roadmap, which will roll out features such as voice chat, expanded customisation, a reworked ranked mode, spell‑unlock progression, daily quests and shop updates. Early glimpses of upcoming content include a new arena, Kamazad, and a new Spellcaster class, the Technomancer, with more details to follow. The roadmap will remain flexible as the team adapts to player feedback.

Early Access adds several new systems and pieces of content, including a final tutorial, co‑op vs CPU mode, voice chat, Discord integration, a spell‑unlock system and an in‑game shop. New spells (Ice Ray, Poison Breath, Metamorphosis, Holy Arrow), two summons (Siren, Rhino Rider) and a new building (Rocket Soldier Factory) expand deck‑building options.
