    Dotemu announces Dungeons & Dragons: Long Rest Tavern – build and manage a quest-fueling tavern haven for heroes, launching 2027 on PC

    Every legend needs a long rest.

    PARIS – August 26th, 2026 – Publisher Dotemu (Absolum, MARVEL Cosmic Invasion) and developer Homo Ludens today announced Dungeons & Dragons: Long Rest Tavern, an all-new, standalone management sim set within the global fantasy universe phenomenon. Even legends need a long rest, so step into the underestimated but crucial role of innkeeper, build a cozy, ale-stocked abode for adventurers, and help the land’s mightiest heroes prepare for their next great quest. Prepare patrons for their next adventure when Dungeons & Dragons: Long Rest Tavern launches next year on PC.

     

    Dungeons & Dragons: Long Rest Tavern embraces the spirit of the beloved franchise, empowering you to create your own story as you open your doors to the most fearless heroes on the Dalelands, a wild, ancient and fertile part of the continent of Faerûn. Don’t risk your life slaying the dragon – feed the fools who try and quietly profit from their spoils. Grow a humble roadside rest stop into a bustling, must-visit inn as you encounter a cast of vibrant, memorable characters boasting strong personalities, unique expertise and personal interests.

    Your tavern is more than just a respite for your guests; it’s where they’ll find their next quest. Thoughtfully lead heroes from behind the bar, assigning challenges for them to take on based on their party composition. Your decisions influence how their quests will end.

    Cook, brew and experiment with exotic and ethically sourced ingredients to discover bold new flavors. As you develop your tavern, you’ll continue to unlock an eclectic, inspired menu of offerings to help heroes recover from each outing. Mastering complex recipes is key to attracting and accommodating an array of patrons spanning many species and classes, making any adventurer feel welcome to pull up a barstool. As your tavern grows, you’ll also encounter a rival innkeeper eager to push you into reaching your full potential. Keep your wares stocked, your menu rich in variety and your wits about you – you never know when the next rush of customers will bury you in orders for a hot meal and a cold pint.

    Earn coin by tending to the whims of weary travelers, keeping your coffers stocked and ready to fund upgrades or expansions as your business grows. Rich customization options enable you to make your tavern your own. Add artifacts or mementos honoring those who helped fund your thriving getaway, shaping a home away from home for the land’s bravest warriors. Cleverly optimize your layout and create a unique decor, building an inviting getaway where the Dalelands’ heroes can put down their weapons and pick up a tankard.
