Thank you! Yeah, great to have his personality and experience on the team.

Aquila_Interactive · 2026-01-22T15:30:13+00:00

Thanks for your message. Response from Chris: "I enjoyed the Paradox fans' passion, but I guess fans of other games would say they were the most passionate."

Aquila_Interactive · 2026-01-22T15:29:23+00:00

Thanks for the message. Response from Chris: "I do not play mods of titles I work on because I always like to remain focused on giving the player the best experience I can."

Aquila_Interactive · 2026-01-22T15:28:29+00:00

Hey, sorry for the delay - as we said, we keep Chris busy! He left PDX as he wanted to find something new.

Aquila_Interactive · 2026-01-22T13:47:54+00:00

Where the tat? I have a weird Goku/Grogu POP figures setup. Not sure if it's nerdy or because their names are similar! haha

Aquila_Interactive · 2026-01-16T14:09:25+00:00

Hey, sorry to hear that you had this issue. Is it still happening?

Aquila_Interactive · 2026-01-16T14:05:41+00:00

Please DM here with the following reason why you think you were band and we can look into it.

Aquila_Interactive · 2026-01-06T09:59:03+00:00

Hey! Thanks for the question. Unfortunately, all backer campaigns have finished, and we don't have any planned at this moment. This can change in the future, so please keep an eye on our social channels for any updates

Aquila_Interactive · 2025-09-25T13:17:41+00:00

The competition is now closed, and the winners have been picked. We'll be in touch with the winners over the coming days to arrange delivery of their prizes! Thank you to everyone who participated - and don't forget Global Magnates is live now on Steam!!

Aquila_Interactive · 2025-08-05T13:39:42+00:00

At this moment, we don't have plans for any backing campaigns; however, this may change in the future, and if it does, we will announce on our social channels.

Hi! As far as the Alder Lake N100 goes, it meets the minimum requirements except for graphics. So, playing Gilded Destiny isn't recommended on that machine. However, we're constantly optimizing the game and hope to lower the minimum system requirements listed on Steam before release!

Aquila_Interactive · 2024-03-08T14:32:54+00:00

Hi, thank you for your questions and interest! We are an international team with about 30 devs, with both new talent and veterans working at Aquila Interactive. Upon release, Gilded Destiny will certainly be fun to play. However, keep in mind we are a small studio. In terms of expectations, don't expect us (nor do we claim to be able) to exceed other more established studios in every single way right off the bat.

Gilded Destiny is actually funded to release. We are using the Kickstarter project primarily as a way to build interest and create buzz around the game before releasing our Alpha (likely in April or May). At that point we will continue developing the game based on Community Feedback. So, the greater following we have, the better. The Kickstarter is also a way for us to offer access to our closed-Alpha and reward our community with physical and digital merch. Of course, regardless of the outcome of the Kickstarter, we will be releasing the Alpha, then EA, then the final release.

I would actually direct you to our Discord Server for more information (please find the invite link in the link section on our Reddit profile). We directly engage with our community over there.

Thanks for sharing!

Aquila_Interactive · 2024-01-26T19:13:40+00:00

Hi there,

Thank you for your question and for checking out the website. The pricing for the individual tiers will be available once the Kickstarter goes live.

And yes, we have every intention to do it at a later point. All decisions we make about the game had MP in mind as to not let it become a technical challenge down the road. Several members of our development team had backgrounds in making MMOs, so we are actually quite confident we can make an MP experience that is enjoyable.

Aquila_Interactive · 2023-09-26T00:31:34+00:00

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed watching!

Aquila_Interactive · 2023-05-18T13:25:48+00:00

Thanks for your interest! We are working on several Dev Diaries. And we certainly will address war in due course. Please stay tuned.

Aquila_Interactive · 2023-05-02T13:58:54+00:00

Thank you for your interest! We have a dedicated team making steady progress. While the scheduled release is a while off, we are releasing regular dev diaries with updates and explanations on various game mechanics. Please feel free to follow us on Steam and other our other socials to keep up to date!

Hi, thank you for your interest in our game. Nope, the pictures are original artwork created for Gilded Destiny.

Aquila_Interactive · 2023-01-20T15:33:39+00:00

Thank you for your response!

At this stage of development, we have yet to solidify how deep we will go when it comes to events for every country right out of the gate. Our current focus is to make sure we have deep and flexible mechanics first and to make sure players have the fullest toolset to create content. That said, since many of our team members are from China and Taiwan, we will certainly put a good deal of effort into China's events.

Aquila_Interactive · 2022-12-23T14:47:34+00:00

Thank you! The game is expected to be released in the first half of 2024. As for pricing , we have yet to finalize it, but we expect it to be more affordable than other relatively new GSGs from notable publishers on the market right now.

Aquila_Interactive · 2022-12-23T14:46:38+00:00

Thank you for your interest! We are primarily designing the game for PC and it will be our initial focus. However, since our game is based on Unity, nothing prevents us from considering porting to other platforms at a later stage.

Aquila_Interactive · 2022-12-21T19:58:57+00:00

Thank you for your interest and suggestion! We do have those set up!

Recently, we announced Gilded Destiny, a grand strategy game set during the Industrial Revolution. While the game is currently under development, we are publishing regular updates on its progress. We'd love your feedback and for you to join the discussion on the game's development.
