Tabletop nights can fall apart for one simple reason: someone has to run the game. Demeo x Dungeons & Dragons: Battlemarked is built around dodging that problem enitrely. It’s a co-op, turn-based "digital tabletop" adventure set in the Forgotten Realms, but structured so the game handles the pacing and rules while your group can focus on tactics and choices. Battlemarked launched on Steam on November 20, 2025, developed and published by Resolution Games.
The pitch is pretty straightforward: pick heroes, move them like miniatures on a board, and fight through dungeons with turn-based tactics. Unlike a traditional D&D session, there’s no human Dungeon Master improvising. Instead, Battlemarked uses a more "curated" campaign structure and choice moments for quick sessions - more "set up and play" than "plan your entire weekend around it."
The game's appeal comes from how wide it casts its net. The game supports cross-play across Steam (including PCVR), PlayStation (PS5/PS VR2), and Meta’s Horizon Store ecosystem, which matters because co-op lives or dies on whether friends can actually join. Reception has been solid so far. On Steam, it’s sitting at "Very Positive" for both recent and overall reviews, with the page showing roughly 80% positive across hundreds of ratings. However, gripes still exist: common player complaints include no battlelog, poor move visibility, and no bot progression, aside from some sync issues.
Content-wise, the devs also seem to be treating it like a "living" tabletop box. The Steam community feed mentions a limited-time side quest tied to Simril (festival of light), plus updates like letting solo players run a full party of custom heroes and quality-of-life changes around turn order and multiplayer party management. On top of that, it's fully compatible with controllers, so something like the 8BitDo Ultimate 2C wireless controller (curr. $29.99 on Amazon) should be great for this.
Battlemarked is priced at $29.99 on Steam, and SteamDB currently shows that as the standard tag since release.
