Tower defense with RPG elements: Elemental War Clash releasing in May

It's official: The next game from our indie studio Clockwork Origins will be Elemental War Clash! It's the next entry in our successful fantasy tower defense series combining classic tower defense gameplay with RPG mechanics such as quests and items. Elemental War Clash combines the best parts of Elemental War 1 and 2: 3 singleplayer game modes that can also be played in cross-platform coop, a cross-platform PvP mode and a map editor.


There are several inspirations for Elemental War: The basic gameplay is inspired by the Warcraft 3 modification ElementTD, the items and kinda roguelite mechanics are mostly inspired by The Binding of Isaac. There are also other influences like from the Gothic series for the handcrafted maps and quests.


Elemental War Clash will launch in May 2025. The concrete day will be announced soon as we are still waiting to pass console certification.

About Clockwork Origins

The beginnings of Clockwork Origins GmbH date back to 2005, when Daniel Bonrath founded a modification team for the role-playing game Gothic II. We used our time as a modification team to experiment with completely different game mechanics as well as graphical and musical approaches, from comic style to medieval fantasy.


We have kept this experimentation alive when we officially founded Clockwork Origins in April 2018. With each project, we aim to learn new aspects of game development, gain knowledge, and refine our production processes.


With four video games developed in-house, our expertise includes all phases of project management, programming, game design, graphics, music, sound and voice acting, as well as marketing and distribution of video games. We already have experience in classic tower defense games (Elemental War series), innovative tower defense genre mixes (CyberTD), and procedurally generated content (Tri6: Infinite).
