KansyaGames has unveiled the Steam store page for its upcoming PC title, [The Blacksmith That Has Long Lines] (https://www.4gamer.net/games/959/G095994/), with a planned release date of February 2026.
This is a blacksmith management game that offers two main gameplay segments: the “Forging Segment,” where you craft weapons based on customers’ strengths, and the “Battle Segment,” where the true power of your forged weapons is tested.
Suddenly, a dragon’s corpse crashes into a small village. Amid this emergency as hordes of monsters pour out from the carcass, the village chief sends an impossible order to all villagers: “Everyone, grab a weapon!” The game’s protagonist runs a blacksmith shop and must create ideal weapons for customers who have no prior combat experience.
Customers come to the protagonist seeking weapons—swords, axes, bows, staves, and more. While their preferred weapon is unknown at first, players choose a weapon type and forge it through a mini-game that requires pressing buttons in time. To quickly identify each customer’s ideal weapon, players must win simple timing games to uncover “correct” keywords. Once you memorize customers’ appearances or traits, you can skip the information-gathering phase altogether and directly begin crafting.

When time runs out, the game transitions to the Battle Segment. Customers who received weapons in the forging phase form teams and battle enemies together. After defeating all foes, the player who dealt the most damage is crowned “MVP” and receives a nickname. Having a nickname makes it easier to provide their ideal weapon during future forging sessions.
Additionally, after each battle, players can access a “SHOP” to purchase upgrades that improve efficiency in both forging and battling.
