King's Field

King's Field is not the subject of any new release, port, or announcement in the two stories about the name. It appears as an influence on two independent first-person dungeon crawlers: Queen's Domain, dated for October 30 on Switch 2, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam, and Necrofane, which passed 50,000 Steam wishlists with a 2027 Steam release planned.

Synthesized from 2 Yomimono stories · updated Oct 8

Both recent stories about the King's Field name come from outside the franchise itself. The older of the two, from June, is about Necrofane, a first-person dark fantasy RPG from Millennium Bound. It passed 50,000 wishlist registrations on Steam. Its announced influences are Dark Souls, King's Field, DOOM, and Hexen. A Kickstarter campaign runs until July 2, with stretch goals for console ports and co-op play. The Steam release is planned for 2027.

The newer story, from October, is about Queen's Domain, a first-person retro action RPG from developer Freshly Baked Games LLC. Future Friends Games announced it for October 30, on Nintendo Switch 2, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. Pricing is undecided. The game is influenced by classic FromSoftware titles, particularly King's Field, and sends the player to Nyasheed Island to search for a missing father and reach a sleeping queen.

Taken together, the two stories place King's Field as a reference point for small-studio first-person dungeon crawlers, not as an active property. Necrofane carries a wishlist count and a 2027 Steam plan; Queen's Domain carries a fixed October 30 date and four named platforms. The two sit at different stages: one still in crowdfunding, the other with a release date and no price. Neither story reports a new King's Field title, a port, or a rights holder announcement.
