WISHLIST NOW: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2130060/Tower_Walker_MMO_Grind_Simulator/Announcing new expansion: The Ogre KingSep 22, 2022 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27030423/98d09d39ca747074cb575a7fd585c51bfc7d14fe.png Hello! We hope everyone is happy with the updated "Vanilla Edition". For those of you that have missed it, we restored old Gladiator School and improved it alot, not only in terms of content, but also the overall mechanics. It was a pure loveletter to all the supporters of "old Vanilla GS". We did TONS of improvements to all major game systems, UI/UX, animations, textures, faster save/load systems and hundreds of tweaks and fixes to the training and combat. We also completed the storyline and finally added a real ending to the game. Today we have good news for the future. It is time to announce a new expansion that also will stay true to "Vanilla Edition" and add more content to it. You have been invited to travel to the north and participate in a major gladiator tournament event. This will be a challenging competition with new progression and rewards. A new city will open its gates before you. It consists of one big arena in the middle and several districts, each with their own market and special traders. A complete new story with a second ending and a big suprise that we will not spoil quite yet. "Far away in the distant lands to the north. The Ogre King is calling the strongest gladiators from all the corners of the world. The most grand spectacle in the "Beltozar Pit", the tournament of the ages. The battle of legends. Let the games begin" Gladiator School: "The Ogre King" is the next full DLC expansion for the ultimate gladiator tycoon management game on Steam. This expansion will be free content together with the version 2.017 update to the basegame. Launch date to be announced soon. Like what you see? Help out! Please consider leaving us a review and tell us what you think about the game or what we did to the "Vanilla Edition" - it means a lot to us. Your support makes this possible! One last thing... Half of our team is currently working on a new game called Tower Walker. The reason we mention this is because the foundation is built upon the old gladiator school engine but this time you do not train in a camp. Instead you go up in a tower and grind mobs for XP and loots. You only play one character and do not manage several fighters. It is auto-battler combat like Gladiator School but you manage one gladiator(fighter), grind for gear and progress up in a tower. If that sounds interesting maybe you would like to check it out... https://store.steampowered.com/app/2130060/Tower_Walker_MMO_Grind_Simulator/ Thanks for your support! Stay tuned!

Due to popular demand "Vanilla" Gladiator School is coming back at the end of May 2022 with a fresh new update. You asked for it.

There will be tons of improvements, interface refinements, bug fixes and stability fixes. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27030423/aadba8df5dd4ee266d278360531a97bb4428eace.png We have decided to update and support the old version from now on and in the future. It is time to show some love to the original game and give it what it deserves. To respect what makes Gladiator School unique and special. The recent "Pit Boss" version (v2.2) will be put aside for now and maybe released as a standalone game with a bit of refinements in the future. (current build will also remain in the game folder so players can continue playing their recent savefiles even after the updates) From the bottom of our hearts.
