Demeo X Dungeons & Dragons: Battlemarked Heads to Neverwinter in First Gameplay Reveal

The worlds of Demeo and Dungeons & Dragons collide in an exciting new crossover adventure, and fans are finally getting a first look at the gameplay. Demeo X Dungeons & Dragons: Battlemarked dropped its debut trailer, giving players a glimpse into the fantasy-filled world of Neverwinter, where the game’s first campaign will take place.

Originally revealed earlier this year, Battlemarked is being developed by Resolution Games in collaboration with Wizards of the Coast. The new trailer highlights the turn-based RPG mechanics fans of Demeo will recognize, now paired with iconic D&D locations and lore. Neverwinter, a city familiar to longtime tabletop adventurers, sets the stage for this epic journey.

According to Resolution Games CEO Tommy Palm, the upcoming title introduces “dramatic cut scenes, richer dialogue, and deeper player choices” than any previous Demeo game. To help deliver that narrative depth, the studio brought on Matt Sernett as the game’s narrative lead. Sernett’s résumé includes notable contributions to classic D&D stories such as Icewind Dale and Baldur’s Gate I & II.

“When Dungeons & Dragons launched its fifth edition in 2014, many players started their first quest in Neverwinter Wood,” said Sernett. “It’s the perfect place for Battlemarked players to begin their journey.” The game will also explore other legendary locations like Cragmaw Castle and Mount Hotenow.

Battlemarked combines Demeo’s immersive tabletop gameplay with the vast storytelling potential of D&D. The game is designed for cross-platform co-op multiplayer and does not require a Dungeon Master to run its campaigns—making it more accessible to new players while still offering deep strategy and storytelling.

Two full campaigns will be available at launch, with more planned post-release. Each campaign will dive into different Dungeons & Dragons settings, promising rich variety and replayability.

While an exact release date hasn’t been announced yet, Demeo X Dungeons & Dragons: Battlemarked is scheduled to launch in late 2025. It will be available on PC VR, PlayStation VR2, Quest, PC, and PS5. Resolution Games confirmed that while the game is optimized for Quest 3, it will also support Quest 2 and Quest Pro devices.

In the lead-up to launch, the developers are planning a series of behind-the-scenes developer diaries to give fans deeper insight into the making of Battlemarked. Stay tuned for more updates as the journey to Neverwinter draws near.
