55 The Chronicles: Medieval announcement trailer was revealed at Summer Game Fest on June 6, 2025. The trailer features narration by actor Tom Hardy and music composed by Adam Skorupa. The reveal generated significant community interest, with the game reaching 200,000 Steam wishlists shortly after the announcement.

77 The trailer's war planning scene uses a recreation of the Gough Map, a late medieval map of Great Britain thought to date from the middle of the 14th century. It orients the British Isles horizontally, placing the southern end of Britain on the right-hand side. The developers have pointed to the prop, and to the pieces set on it, as an example of the research behind small details rather than set dressing chosen for looks.

1515 A third trailer, the Gameplay Reveal, debuted at Summer Game Fest in June 2026 and was published to the game's official channels on June 5, 2026. Captured directly from the game, it showcases large-scale battles set during the Hundred Years' War, with the player commanding an army on horseback while fighting in the thick of the melee. The trailer is narrated by Danish actor Lars Mikkelsen. It marks the first extensive look at in-engine gameplay, including the planning phase before a battle, shifting troop formations, and the morale swings that decide an engagement.

1717 The reveal doubled as the first public showcase of the Holy Roman Empire, one of the three playable factions, accompanied by new key artwork. The voice in the trailer belongs to Danish actor Lars Mikkelsen, who portrays Johannes Gutenberg in the game and narrates parts of the journey players undertake.

2121 Beyond the three trailers, the official channel carries shorter in-engine pieces. A Settlement Flythrough moves through a generated settlement to show the density and layout the world-building tools produce, and a Unit Engagement Exploration clip focuses narrowly on how a frontline forms and holds when two units meet.

2323 The battles developer diary was accompanied by a long-form video, "Battles in Chronicles: Medieval - An In-Depth Look," running a little over fourteen minutes, in which Senior Game Designer Gareth Bourn walks through the battle systems the diary describes. A further set of short development clips covering horse locomotion and aiming, combat sway and exhaustion, weapons, unit veterancy, and the settlement and asset composition tools is published alongside the written diaries. These are labelled as work in progress and subject to change rather than as finished footage.

3131 Before the first long-form developer diaries, the team published a short sneak peek in June 2025 carrying the first in-game settlement screenshots. The post framed the settlement as somewhere a player might eventually call home, rule, or conquer, and described the images as an early taste of the world rather than finished work.
