Hello, Redwallers!

In case you have been living under a rock, or been cooped up in Salamandastron without contact to the outside world for the past few months, The Lost Legends of Redwall: The Scout is getting an upgrade that combines all of the original Acts into one game on Steam, Xbox, and Playstation in The Lost Legends of Redwall: The Scout Anthology!

Our team is thrilled to release this updated version of the game that will include lots of features that we believe you woodlanders will be quite excited for.😉 In preparation for the release of this game, the original three Acts of The Scout are being removed from the Steam store. As a thank-you gift to all of the owners of the original games, we have pushed one final, massive bugfix to the three original games that went live last Friday!

Don't miss out on this fantastic next version of The Scout, and thank you to all our players who were willing to take a chance on this team and buy the original version of the game! We are forever in your debt!

Hi, everybody! We’ve got some news to share. But first, thanks for waiting for this update—this one includes a lot of requested fixes and we really feel the gameplay has been improved by this overhaul of bugs. A special thanks to our game testers for their contributions!

This is very likely the final update to our Acts 1-3 of The Lost Legends of Redwall: The Scout. As you may know, we’re thrilled to be releasing The Scout Anthology in the coming months, and in lieu of this updated edition, these separate acts of The Scout will be retiring from Steam.

We’re so grateful to everyone who purchased these individual acts; and as part of that thank you, our programmers, artists, and testers worked on getting this massive final batch of bug fixes out to you. We appreciate you, and we hope we’ll see you again for The Scout Anthology this holiday season!
