I’ve heard that some of you were left wanting more after Next Fest, so I think you’ll like today’s news. Today, during the Wishlisted Showcase, I officially announced the Early Access release date for Arms of God - mark your calendars!
The past few weeks have been an intense development grind, and it doesn’t look like I’ll get a chance to slow down for at least another six weeks.I’m pushing as hard as I can to make something that’s genuinely fun for hours to play, while also helping move the genre forward.
A few days ago, I officially wrapped up work on the core of the game and all levels. Now it’s time for testing, balancing, and polishing everything to make sure it feels right. I still have a lot of ideas for what comes next, and I can’t wait to start working through the roadmap. Sooo.. What’s next?
April / May: Internal QA testing (no more public playtests are planned)
June 8, 2026 - Early Access Launch
With your feedback, I’ll focus on balancing and quality-of-life improvements, with a few hotfixes planned shortly after release and a larger update coming in July, while the roadmap toward version 1.0 includes new weapons, enemies, difficulty levels, and additional game modes.
Q1 2027 - Full Release (v1.0)
Planned for early next year, with the goal of delivering the full version as soon as possible without compromising quality, alongside more content, better balance, and a more complete experience.
Further updates and additional content are planned, including a local co-op mode and console versions (Nintendo Switch, PS4/5, and Xbox) as part of the roadmap.
DLC at Launch
Alongside the Early Access release, I’m planning to launch two DLCs:
Official Soundtrack with 9 original tracks created with musicians I’ve been working with over the past few weeks, with an additional 30 minutes of music planned to be added later.
Supporter Pack - a way to support my solo development - that will include:
Additional armor color options (cosmetic only - no gameplay impact)
Digital Art Book (PDF) - concept art and behind-the-scenes materials
Main Theme OST
Animated and static wallpapers for PC and mobile
A customized player profile look, with a unique color and avatar ribbon
I also plan to expand the Supporter Pack with free updates over time - first on the list is a short story set in the world of Arms of God.
Thank you for all your support and patience throughout this journey. It really means a lot to me.
See you on June 8!
