Time for a development update!
We've been hard at work on the upcoming new map, The Manor, in advance of its release this September. We are aiming for a release date of September 19th. Internal playtesting has begun, and we're already excited by how it's all coming together. We know it's been a longer wait this time, so thanks for sticking with us! Read on for a sneak peek at some of the original assets our team has designed for The Manor (click to enlarge).
Cursed Heads
A quick heads up (sorry, we couldn't resist) on our newest ritual object. As terrifying as these ghoulish heads are, they won't be chasing you. You might have to chase them, however... Anyone got some spare gloves?!
Mirrors
Mirror mirror on the wall, who's the scariest of them all? No haunted house is complete without a creepy mirror. There are multiple mirrors around the map, and we've worked hard to make them reflective, meaning you'll see yourself in them, other players, and even April. The mirrors are part of an important mechanic never seen before in a DEVOUR map - the ability to travel between two, playable realms. We can't wait for you to find out more when The Manor releases!
Font
The font was designed in a classic Victorian style, as was much of the map. You'll be visiting it frequently in The Manor. Any guesses why?
Boar Platter
Looks like one of The Slaughterhouse boars made it out alive. For a little while, at least.
Wedding Cake
This stunning asset was designed to highlight that the manor was the venue for a wedding abandoned at the last minute. If nobody even had time for cake, something REALLY bad must have gone down.
We think The Manor is DEVOUR's creepiest, most chilling map yet, with a classic haunted house vibe. After all, we all love a good ghost story! There will also be balance of outside and inside areas, something players have told us they enjoy about our original map The Farmhouse.
Thanks again for your patience and support as we work on The Manor. We can't wait to welcome you in...
