About Becoming Saint:
Becoming Saint is a focused real-time tactics game placing you in the shoes of a young woman in the 14th century, determined to preach, inspire, and unite others under her cause. Will you advocate for pacifism, or lead your cult as a Machiavellian noble?


Choose your tenets, select your units, and harness the religious fervor of your followers to convert and conquer as many city-states as possible, paving your way to sainthood. Your first attempts might fail, but in death you are granted a second chance. With a little prayer, perseverance, and a few hundred years of reincarnation, you may just become a saint during your lifetime.


As they say, the road to sainthood is paved with a loyal flock, interesting convictions, and… excellent food begging techniques.


Becoming Saint is out now on Steam for $14.99 / €14.99 / £12.79, at a 10% discount for the next 14 days. A Supporter’s Pack DLC is available on Steam for $4.99 / €4.99 / £4.29, offering the game’s original soundtrack, wallpapers, and in-game pet skins.


Alongside a Supporter’s Pack DLC bundle, the game will additionally be launching into two exciting Steam bundles with two incredible games. The Becoming Saint X Bad North bundle and the Becoming Saint X Stronghold Crusader: Definitive Edition (also launching on July 15) bundle deliver an extra 10% discount for owners.
