Paderborn, Germany, June 10, 2025: 42 Bits Entertainment and publisher Aerosoft are proud to announce that Fata Deum, the highly anticipated god simulation game and currently the #142 most wishlisted title on Steam with over 200,000 wishlists, will enter Early Access on Steam this September! Like the classic “god games” of old, Fata Deum invites players to wield divine power, shaping living and breathing worlds, choosing to rule with a tender heart or an iron fist, all while competing with rival deities for ultimate influence.

 
Wielding the power of a God, what will you become?

 
In Fata Deum, players take on the role of a young deity who will manipulate settlements, devotees, and the fabric of reality itself. Bless the mortals beneath you with inspiration, or instill fear with terrifying visions during the day, while at night, direct civilization in the construction of temples and farms, or sabotage rival villages with powerful curses hailing from the sky.

 
Fata Deum offers unparalleled freedom to shape a kingdom, be it one of prosperity and light or debauchery and darkness. Players will not only let loose their powers to those below, but also battle against the gods of Violence, Deceit, Fertility, and Pleasure. As influence grows, the living world evolves, reflecting each god’s unique vision, all while challenges are set by the goddesses of Fate, who weave the game’s narrative toward divine ascent.

 
“Simulators are at the heart of what Aerosoft does, and Fata Deum, with its deep strategic elements and gameplay mechanics, makes it a standout title in our expansive catalogue, which was missing a god simulator,” said Winfred Diekmann, CEO of Aerosoft. “We are very pleased to have signed on as publishers of the project, and are committed to supporting 42 Bits Entertainment, ensuring a successful Early Access launch and beyond!” 

 
Key Features of Fata Deum:

 
  • Dynamic World-Building: Construct temples, farms, or raise armies, and watch the living world evolve based on your decisions.
  • Day and Night Cycle Gameplay: Bless or manipulate by day, and directly control settlements by night, balancing free will with divine intervention.
  • Divine Influence: Manage mana to inspire or intimidate mortals, shaping their actions and your growing power.
  • Godly Rivalries: Compete against gods of Violence, Deceit, Fertility, and Pleasure, each with unique kingdoms and strategies.
  • Moral Freedom: Choose to foster prosperity and love, or rule as a tyrant, summoning demons through sacrifice.
  • Epic Narrative: Overcome challenges set by the goddesses of Fate to write your story as a deity rising to fame and honor.
     
Fata Deum will be available for PC via Steam Early Access in September 2025, and you can wishlist it today! The game will be available in various languages upon launch.
