Peasant Samurai presents an unusual RTS take on the Sengoku period by centering peasant life and domestic affairs rather than warfare.

Independent developer petitmonte announced that the real-time strategy game Peasant Samurai will release on PC via Steam on August 3. The game is set in the Sengoku period but focuses on daily life and domestic affairs rather than battle. Players grow a small village as a peasant, manage resources, and develop the community. The game starts in 1488 and is cleared when 100 years have passed or all territories are acquired. Players sometimes take up arms to face the Oda army.
The subtitle of Peasant Samurai translates to 'a country ruled by the peasants themselves,' a concept rooted in historical context. The game, developed by petitmonte, begins in 1488 and tasks players with building a village from the ground up through agriculture and resource management. Unlike typical Sengoku RTS titles, the focus is on the gentle accumulation of daily life rather than large-scale battles, though players may need to defend against the approaching Oda army. The goal is to survive 100 years or conquer all territories. Peasant Samurai launches on Steam August 3.
