Warning
Beginning on June 24, 2021, Fantasy Grounds Classic will no longer receive any product updates or DLC releases. Please consider upgrading to Fantasy Grounds Unity.
Background
Fantasy Grounds has been renamed to Fantasy Grounds Classic. This is the version of our software that began in 2004 and which received regular updates and DLC releases up until we stop providing them on June 24, 2021. All future updates and releases of the software will be done on Fantasy Grounds Unity and we hope to continue that for years or decades ahead.
Fantasy Grounds Unity has pretty much all the same functionality as Classic, but with many notable improvements. It also provides a much better platform for us to build from. Supporting both versions with new releases means double the testing time, increased development costs, twice the server storage, and significant limitations on what we can do within new products. This additional time investment affects us and our community developers and it delays the releases of new products. Our usage data indicates that only a small percentage of our users continue to use Fantasy Ground Classic. By focusing on Fantasy Grounds Unity, we expect a better experience for the vast majority of our players and GMs.
What about my current FG Classic Game?
You can continue to use FG Classic for as long as you'd like. Our alias server will remain up and functioning and we will support this and customer support requests for the product. New installations will still be able to install all purchases as they are on 2021-06-24.
If we add new functionality, fixes, or features to any rulesets you use beyond June 24, then you will not receive those updates. Your update button simply won't light up anymore.
If we add new adventure modules or other DLC, those won't be available on FG Classic. They will only be added to Fantasy Grounds Unity.
How can I upgrade to Fantasy Grounds Unity
This will be a paid upgrade, but it is discounted by 50% for owners of FG Classic if you upgrade to the same type of license. If there is a sale going on, this gets applied after the discount. Your campaigns and creations can be copied over to FG Unity and you can resume play there.
