One launcher to rule them all.*
Monarch gathers your entire PC gaming library into one place, so you can focus on gaming.
* once we get around to finishing it.
Aggregating libraries from:
Feature status.
Please don't judge, we're trying our best...
Other launchers publish “roadmaps”. We haven't gotten around to making one yet... Anyways, here's what works so far.
Find games automatically Steam + EGS
Monarch detects games already installed on your system, as well as finding your owned games in the Epic Games store, if you allow it.
Launch games Steam + EGS + Executables
Honestly feels like the bare minimum to be a 'launcher'.
Quicklaunch Reworking
You already know that you're ready to liberate another planet and spread managed democracy. Why wait for a launcher to open?
Collections & folders Reworking
Felt cute, might fix later.
View store pages Limited
Any game that Monarch can detect you can view it's store page, no need to open another launcher.
Manage Steam & Epic Limited
Full support to natively download, update and launch Epic Games store games. Steam is still limited in scope.
Launch arguments Reworking
Nice to have, hard to make right.
Plugin system Planned
Eventually you’ll be able to fix our mistakes yourself. That’s called empowerment.
User stats Planned
The first step to fixing yourself is realising you have a problem.
Blazingly Fast™
Yes, it’s written in Rust.
Because Monarch is written in Rust you won't even have time to get sick of us before it's open and you launch your games.
It starts before your current launcher finishes showing its splash screen, and it doesn’t phone home about it.

What Monarch will never do
Track you
No telemetry, no analytics, no “anonymous usage statistics”.
Bundle bullshit
We only ship what we deem is necessary for a good user experience, and based on our features, barely that.
Sell you out
Not treat our users like shit? What a groundbreaking idea.
Give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around
And
desert you
Convinced? Barely? Good enough.
