Diplomacy Is Not An Option celebrates a year in Early Access with an EPIC BATTLE

Door 407 |

February 9th - A year under siege isn't to be sniffed at. Walls have been built, armies have been crushed and the peasants haven't bathed nearly enough. Today, independent studio Door 407 celebrate a year of Early Access development for their siege survival RTS Diplomacy Is Not An Option.


With the game's final launch planned for later this year (stay tuned for updates), they want to give players a peek at the chaos to come. Crank up the volume and load those trebuchets, then check out the EPIC BATTLE trailer below, and a more sedate look at fortress-building further down:

It has been an eventful year for Diplomacy Is Not An Option. Check out the development blog here for a breakdown on how the game has changed and evolved since its debut one year ago, plus Door 407's plans for the expanded and improved campaign mode and what else to expect in 2023.


Diplomacy Is Not An Option is available now on Steam, GOG and Humble for £19.99/$24.99/€20.99, with the price set to increase once the game leaves early access later this year. Join their official Discord channel for up-to-the-minute updates on development.

About Door 407


We are Door 407, named after the dorm room where the company founders—Andrey Belousov and Oleg Sakharov—first met. Before starting forming the studio, the duo worked on Ancient Planet, a Tower Defense game reportedly enjoyed by Gabe Newell.


Our goal is to develop classic-style strategy games leveraging all the perks of modern technology. Door 407 now employs more than 30 specialists; game designers, artists, programmers, testers and a community manager.


We have two releases planned for 2023: Horde-survival RTS Diplomacy is Not an Option (with Joachim Ante as the development advisor), and the meditative puzzle game URBO.
