V71 ‘Name pending’ - EARLY SUMMER
We have news. Not a patch, not yet, but a look at what lies ahead for Songs of Syx in 2026.
We hope the next update will be coming early summer. The closed beta starts this spring (hopefully around mid-late April). As usual, the update became bigger than anticipated and needs a lot of testing.
If you want more info on what is coming, or join the closed beta this spring, join our Discord where I am pretty open about what I am working on.
For the launch, we will be running a Midweek Deal at 25%. We may or may not be working on a new trailer for that one, and a certain someone may or may not make a downtrodden comeback…
What is this? Ouch...
SPRING SALE AND MEDIEVAL FEST
Songs of Syx will also be participating in the Steam Spring Sale at 25% off starting today, and again in Medieval Fest in April, also at 25%. We intend to keep discounts at this level for a long time, well past 1.0. No artificial urgency. Just a good price for a game that keeps getting bigger.
We also want to remind you that the plan is still to increase the price, probably to 29.99 later this year, right as we release 1.0. This has been the plan for years, and it has not changed. If you want the game at its current price, from now to 1.0 is your window. It is where we are.
Keep a watchful eye
1.0 BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR (We hope…)
We are targeting a 1.0 release before the end of 2026. This is not the finish line. It is a milestone, and the beginning of a new era for Songs of Syx.
If the launch goes well, we want to bring on a couple of more developers and push the game further than ever before. There is a lot more world left to build… and unfortunately I have way more ideas in my head than I could possibly finish.
More soon.
