Hello, Mercenaries!
Hope you're all staying safe during these tumultuous times. Meanwhile, we're back with a fresh update on the development process of Shores Unknown!
Story update and new locations
We're happy to announce that we're almost finished with the main story of the game. Our scripter and level designers are working on finalizing the last chapter, while the writer team is busy with script edits and side quest activities.
Final world map art
The world of Shores Unknown is ripe with various locations for a you to explore, and to navigate around it, you'll need a map. We're excited to finally present the final look for the map of the continent where most of the events of our game take place. Take a look:
Fresh teaser trailer
We recently posted a new video for the game, which features some of the game's combat encounters, the new UI and a score from our composer Claudi Martinez. Watch it here:
Release window update
While all the pieces of the puzzle are slowly but surely falling into place, we unfortunately had to reconsider our release window and postpone the game's release from Spring 2020 to a later date, which we will announce in advance in a separate post. As a team, we are committed to delivering a high quality game experience, and realistically that means a few extra months of polishing everything into shape. As gamers ourselves, we know waiting can be tough, and we do apologize for this delay, but we're sure the wait will be worth it in the end!
A big shout-out to Vagrus - The Riven Realms
We'd like to conclude this post with a shout-out to a game we can wholeheartedly recommend you to wishlist and follow here on Steam: Vagrus is an award-winning turn-based open-world dark fantasy RPG. The development team has been playing table-top RPG (DnD) on their home-brew setting, The Riven Realms, for over two decades so it has incredibly deep lore and immersive story.
They have just recently posted a huge announcement on their Steam development blog about opening up the open-world main campaign of Vagrus to all their Crowdfunding Backers in preparation of bringing the game to Steam.
Wishlist and follow Vagrus for up to date information about its development milestones, upcoming features and ultimately to get notified about its release when the time comes.
And that's it for this time, Mercenaries! If you like Shores Unknown, please remember to wishlist the game on Steam. We also post regular updates on our Twitter and Facebook pages, so consider following us there!
