Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“The combat and crafting professions will need continual balancing and re-work. There should be an expectation for the composition of skills to be changed, with abilities and crafting recipes being added and removed. The work towards the completion of the main over world zones will govern the main progress of Early Access. Instalments of story quests will be available to play throughout Early Access, and an additional fresh start server will be available at the first non Early-Access release.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“At least until August 2026.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version will be a culmination of the player feedback and continued development through the Early Access period.

Features we plan to expand on that will be present in the full version:

  • Expanded storyline quests
  • Extra world zones with quest hubs
  • More instanced dungeons
  • More overworld dungeons
  • Additional side quests

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

  • Story quests up unti the second zone
  • Skills for combat, crafting, and gathering up to level 20
  • First instanced dungeon in Umber pass
  • Second instanced dungeon in Atten Manor
  • Test dungeon with bosses of varying difficulty
  • Time trial gauntlet
  • Mounts
  • Over-world dungeons
  • Player-to-player trading

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The game will remain free to play after Early Access.

Access to premium features to maintain a good game experience such as global chat, and hub trading will remain available via an in-app game time purchase.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Players are invited to join our discord to be a part of these organised community events, but we will also be announcing events in the game world to ensure as many people as possible have a chance to take part!

We are always open to any feedback on combat skills, crafting, dungeons, balancing, bugs, and improvements to the player experience via discord, or to GMs you may meet in the game world.

The Community will also be involved through regular events held either live one-shots in GMT time zone or over several days, focussing on a specific aspect of the game.

The events we plan to run:

  • Dungeon and raid play-tests
  • PvE and PvP arena server stress-tests
  • Instance and gauntlet challenges using pre-set gear per class
  • Chance to name equipment, reagents, locations, and consumables within the game
