About the Software

POWERFUL enough for a developer SIMPLE enough for a child VERSATILE enough for any platform!

For years, RPG Maker has been the easiest way to make your own Windows PC Roleplaying game. We have strived to give everyone, regardless of experience or skill level, the tools to make a game they could be proud of. Now, with RPG Maker MV, your game isn't just on Windows PC, its on the move. Make your game on your Windows or OS X PC, and then deploy it for iOS, Android, Windows, OS X, or even to play in a browser using HTML5!

MAKE GAMES FOR THE PLATFORMS YOU WANT FROM ANY PC

RPG Maker MV can run on both Windows and Mac OS X PCs. Users can also export games for the following platforms:

  • Windows/EXE
  • MacOSX/APP (Mac OSX 10.10 or better. Not supported: macOS Big Sur 11.0 and later.)
  • Android/APK
  • iOS/IPA
  • HTML 5 for Web Browsers

BUILD YOUR WORLD WITH AN IMPROVED MAP EDITOR

RPG Maker MV uses a user-friendly​ map system to help you build the RPG world of your dreams. With an additional automated upper layer, mapping in MV is even easier than before.

MAKE YOUR WORLD LIVE WITH A SIMPLE EVENT SYSTEM

In RPG Maker MV, you use the simple, intuitive event system to bring your world to life. You can easily and quickly create NPCs for your characters to interact with, puzzles for them to solve, and quests for them to complete.

GET STARTED IMMEDIATELY WITH BUILT-IN RESOURCES

RPG Maker MV, like previous RPG Makers, comes with its own graphic and audio resources for you to use in your game. From sprites to battlers, from sound effects to music. MV comes with resources for both Fantasy and Sci-fi games, and you are easily able to add more.

USE TWO DIFFERENT BATTLE MODES, RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX

With a tick of a checkbox, you can switch between the classic Front View Battle to a Side View Battle system.

USE A MOUSE OR TOUCH SCREEN TO PLAY YOUR GAMES

Tired of playing RPG Maker games with your keyboard? With RPG Maker MV, your game will allow the player to play the game with a flick of their mouse, or using a touch screen.

SEE YOUR GAME IN HIGHER RESOLUTION

RPG Maker MV can show more than ever before. With a default 1.5x the resolution, sprites can show more emotion and the scenery can be more detailed than ever before.

USE PLUGINS TO MAKE A FULLY CUSTOMIZED GAME

Want to customize your game even FURTHER? Use plugins to change things the way YOU want them. You can get them from us, get them from other fans, or master JavaScript to make your own! With our new plugin manager, you can just drop in the .js file of a plugin, and then configure it directly in the editor.

At the time of writing this review, RPG Maker MV is on sale, and I spent only $12.94 on it. What a steal! It's a really good app, and I'm having a lot of fun messing around with it. RPG Maker MV is easy to navigate, and

Although RPG Maker allows you to create simple games, I cannot recommend this software for three main reasons: 1) LINUX: The Linux version seems to be a second-class citizen. On several occasions I’ve tried to use this

As an engine for beginners, it's great. It's straightforward, easy to learn and overall ideal for pouring your imagination out and moulding it into what you want it to be. It takes a while to get more advanced with it,

Is a very user-friendly software that takes away most if not all of the need for programming or knowing coding. It is easy to use, and while it is only specialized for one genre of game, it does what it is marketed to
