We're truly excited to announce the launch of Banshee's Cry. This is a huge piece of content, with various interlinking narratives, multiple new characters, places and organisations, spanning several areas of the city. Expect a long haul of madness, mystery, horror and, possibly, redemption. Weighing in at almost 100,000 words, this is our single biggest update so far.
This new story and associated mechanics is aimed at more advanced characters. You'll need a neural interface, and you'll need to be fairly familiar with Evanston Projects. Start the story by exploring dark corners. We wish you luck: you'll need it.
To go along with this update, we've got a little bit of Halloween-related stuff, some of which is also related to Banshee. As usual, shop around for new things over the next seven days. We'll aim to build more Halloween over the coming years.
And as usual for our events, there's an access code available in our Discord server. Check it out here: https://discord.gg/XeY36k9
