Games are hard to make, right? Not with RPG Maker! It’s as simple as starting a New Project. We provide the tools and assets so you can start making your dream game in seconds!
The latest version from the RPG Maker series that allows anyone to make an RPG with ease!
Design environments for your player to explore with the simple and versatile Map Editor. Pick from a large collection of new graphics to build towns, dungeons, and worlds. The return of the much requested Layering function gives you even more control!
Create original characters for your world using the Character Generator. Select the hair, eyes, clothes, and accessories of your heroes and NPCs. Customize color palettes and offset components to personalize your characters even further!
The Database is the core of your RPG! Do everything from setting your character name, stats, appearance, and skills, to defining equipment, enemies, and battle states. Change game settings, too, such as swapping between turn-based and time progress battle systems, to match your vision!
Testplay your project from the editor without having to wait for your game to slowly compile. Toggle switches and variables to test events.
Events drive your game! Using a simple menu interface, select commands to display messages, control game progression, trigger battles, and much more! The possibilities with events are near endless, and don’t require a single line of code.
Plugins allow you to go beyond what is possible with events alone. Use plugins from the scripting community, or code your own, to customize your game even further! Revamped plugin commands now also allow you to easily add parameters with a simple menu system.
Thinking of selling your game? You can publish games made in RPG Maker, with the assets included, as freeware or commercial titles. No additional commercial license required!
RPG Maker now supports Effekseer, a powerful particle effect creation tool. Easily create flashy attacks without the use of spritesheets to make your combat feel even more dynamic!
Looking to expand your library of assets? We have hundreds of graphic and audio packs from talented creators to fit your needs. Everything you could ever want to create your vision; whether it be a galaxy trotting sci-fi epic or a survival horror zombiefest!
