Hey Cultists,
It's officially been 1 month since we launched Blood Reaver's Steam page! We just want to thank everyone for the overwhelming support thus far and we're so excited to announce we've hit 2700+ wishlists.
Not only that, but we wanted to especially thank the influx of overseas interest in Blood Reaver. As a small Australian studio, the thought that our game could reach international players and grab the attention of those in other parts of the world is phenomenal. It's been a huge motivator for the team and we're even more excited now to be able to show what we've been up to so far in 2024.
We’re still a ways off from early access release, so while you wait for a major content announcement, here's some of our initial concept art for one of our player models, currently in production.
Character Concept Art: The Nameless Blood Reaver
'Members of an ancient order, The Blood Reavers have mastered forbidden magic allowing them to siphon blood from infernal demons. They are the last line of defence protecting the barrier between hell and the mortal realm'
Created by our outstanding concept artist Matthew Dobrich. Check him out on ArtStation!
Looking Ahead
We're heavily underway with our multiplayer rework & integration, and ideally, we'll be able to showcase fresh gameplay of what you can expect from Blood Reaver soon. Additionally, we're deep in the trenches with creating our second map 'Last Stand' and are in the process of expanding and updating the map currently available in our pre-alpha demo 'The Beginning of the End'. Both are planned to be playable for our early access launch in 2025!
Upcoming Events
If you're local to us in Adelaide, South Australia this coming June, keep a look out for AVcon 24, where we will be showcasing the playable demo and teasing exclusive info on what's happening behind the scenes. Looking towards the later half of 2024 we’re also excited to announce we will be at PAX AUS in Melbourne, and SXSW in Sydney this coming October!
