Hi all, Mat here to give you all another glimpse to the plans we have after our latest patch, The Gathering of the Gods.
So, as MarkoP has been pointing out in both our Discord server and in the Steam page, we’re walking steadily towards a 1.0 (very) early next year. We’re nearing the end of content creation and adjustments, and focusing quite a lot on our console development as well.
Still, here’s a quick rundown of the features you can expect for when we leave Early Access:
- Questlines: We already introduced a few to test out the waters way back then, but we got several more quests spanning all three main zones, including some that feature unique relics, like Tudwal’s Whetstone.
- More Common and Rare Relics: If you are starting to see the same old Hunnic Arrows and Thunderstones a bit too often, worry no longer - we’ll focus on getting a few more cool Relics to make your runs a bit more varied.
- Capstone Reward: Mia had a pretty cool idea for a reward if you can defeat our hardest challenge - Hardmode with all curses enabled. Look forward to a bit of a gift!
- More VFX reworks: Will is hard at work revisiting spells now, but he’ll soon pivot to give the warband’s skills a bit more love and visual polish.
- Achievements: Not only do we have a few to rework, we added so much more content that some more achievements could find their way in! If you are the kind of player to platinum The Hand of Merlin, keep an eye out!
Your feedback was paramount to changes and adjustments until this point. If you have any other suggestions, feel free to hop on our Discord server and let us know!
