Fata Deum, The God Simulator, Reveals September Launch Date!

With omnipotence on your side, you’ll shape civilizations, conjure miracles, cast curses, and decide the fate of all living mortals in a world that bends to your will.

Paderborn, Germany, August 6th, 2025: Thy holinesses 42 Bits Entertainment and Aerosoft are proud to announce that Fata Deum, the long-awaited god simulator, has foretold its release date! The game shall be available on Steam Early Access on September 15th 2025!

Inspired by legendary titles of old, such as Black & White and Populous, Fata Deum shall bestow upon its players the true second-coming of the God Games genre. Players will be granted the divine power to influence, build, destroy, and shape entire worlds, in their most grandiose image, or their least favourite mood! Through kindness or cruelty, by nurturing or with tyrannical ways, every action, good or bad, will change your people, their behaviour, how they worship you, and the very land beneath their feet.

What Kind of Deity will you Become?

In Fata Deum, you are not just a builder of cities. You are a shaper of beliefs, destinies and legacies. Guide mortals with a gentle hand or rule over them through fear. Fulfil their prayers, perform miracles, or punish them, because they’ve been bad, or… just because you can! Every action you take shifts the world around you, making each playthrough a unique, emergent story.

The game is separated into two main cycles of day and night. When the sun is up, perform wonders, shape civilization, and compete with rival gods for influence. In the darkness of night, tweak your strategy in peace, whisper into their dreams, and plan your next move.

Whether you micromanage every moment or prefer a broader, more philosophical approach, Fata Deum adapts to your style. With a variety of handcrafted maps offering dozens of unique locations filled with secrets, story-driven quests, and strategic opportunities, you’ll be able to smash structures with physics-based destruction, call down meteorites, or reshape the landscape entirely. Build over 20 types of structures to tailor your society toward war, knowledge, industry, or growth, but remember, you are not the only god in this universe.

Rival gods will challenge your influence, each with their own unique personality and divine domain:

Violence, goddess of war and destruction

Pleasure, god of indulgence, art, and joy

Deceit, god of illusion and manipulation

Fertility, the mother of life and creation

Wield miracles that affect everything from birth rates to city expansion. Bless your mortals with strength and intelligence, protect them in battle, or sacrifice them to gain power. You can even turn them into zombies, drain their life essence, or summon creatures from beyond. No two gods will play the same, and no world will grow alike.

“We’re proud to finally announce the launch date for Fata Deum! Our journey started with a humble Kickstarter, where 1,451 amazing backers believed in our vision and gave us the momentum to create something truly special. Since then, that support has grown into a community of over 200,000 wishlisters on Steam, something we could’ve only dreamed of back in 2021!” Said Christoph Schulze of 42 Bits Entertainment “Fata Deum is more than just a game to us. It’s our tribute to the god games we grew up with, and our chance to breathe new life into a genre we love. We can’t wait to welcome players into the world we’ve built, and hope they will enjoy creating wonderful worlds… or destroying them!”
