Mandate Order Roadmap & Updates

Mandate Order is in Early Access, so roadmap and update searches will keep changing. This page is the site hub for “Mandate Order update,” “Mandate Order roadmap,” “next update,” and “version 1.0” intent.

Use the official Steam news feed for exact patch notes. This page summarizes the public direction without treating planned features as already playable.

Current Version Focus

The current Early Access build focuses on the complete core loop: city construction, production logistics, population, farming, retainers, diplomacy, conscription, city defense, and large-scale battles.

FAQ

Is Mandate Order finished?

No. It is in Early Access. The core loop is playable, but new content, balance, performance work, tutorial improvements, and system refinements are expected.

Where should I check exact patch notes?

Use the official Steam news and update notes first. This page is a navigation and summary hub, not a replacement for official patch notes.

Should every update get a new page?

No. Keep update intent centralized here unless a specific update creates enough search demand for its own guide.
