September 2026

Building the renovation crew

RenoRise puts the success of each renovation in your hands — but you do not have to do the work alone. Contractors have different roles, skill levels and daily rates, so assembling the right crew is part of every project.

Feature · September 2026

September 2026

From wreck to a complete remodel

The Remodel Planner is built around meaningful choices. Decide on the renovation level, choose a layout and style, assign the required workers, and balance the cost against the value you hope to create.

Roadmap · September 2026

September 2026

The road to the first public build

The next major milestone is the Steam preview page and official website in October 2026, followed by the first playable beta at the end of November.

Cities · September 2026

September 2026

Nine cities. One career.

RenoRise starts in Milwaukee and takes players through New Orleans, Denver, Nashville, Chicago, Miami, San Francisco and Los Angeles before reaching New York. Each city raises the scale of the challenge.

World Building · September 2026

September 2026

Building cities from the real world

The city maps are being developed around real geography rather than fictional districts. The goal is to give every location its own recognizable character while keeping the game readable and playable.

September 2026

Beta planned for November

The first beta is currently planned for the end of November 2026. It will give early players a chance to experience RenoRise, test its systems and provide feedback before the planned February 2027 release.
