Kalypso Media Marks 20th Anniversary With August Campaign

Kalypso Media will run a worldwide campaign called 'A Month of Celebration' through August to mark its 20th anniversary on August 16, 2026. The publisher and developer, founded in 2006 in Worms, Germany, will offer discounts, bundles, giveaways, in-game events, merchandise, and a 'Tropico 7' dev blog. More lineup details arrive at gamescom 2026.

Kalypso Media is turning 20 on August 16, 2026, and the German publisher and developer plans to spend the whole month thanking its players. The 'A Month of Celebration' campaign runs through August with discounts of up to 20% on eligible titles and DLC in the Kalypso Store, plus limited-time bundles and a giveaway of novelty items and game keys for newsletter subscribers.

In-game anniversary events are set for 'Commandos: Origins' and 'Dungeons 4', and limited-edition T-shirts and other merchandise go on sale. A development blog for the in-development 'Tropico 7' is also scheduled, aimed at fans of the series. Kalypso frames the anniversary as 'the beginning of a new chapter' rather than a look back, with more on its upcoming lineup promised at gamescom 2026 in Cologne at the end of August.
