The base game is known as SpellForce 3: Reforced as of the update from December 6, 2021. The original version is kept in a separate depot.
The Soul Harvest and Fallen God releases are advertised as standalone expansions, but are in essence the same game with different content unlocked to the player based on the owned licenses. The Versus Edition is a free-to-play variant with 3 of the 6 factions in available in skirmish and 1-on-1 multiplayer, but with singleplayer content absent; an upgrade allows complete faction access, but not the singleplayer content.
