Have YOU already beaten Stronghold Crusader 2, Stronghold 2 or one of our other new Steam Editions? Are YOU sitting there right now thinking “If only I had a few extra maps to try out!” while patiently waiting for the next Stronghold to come out?

Well your prayers have been answered! Watch as we run us through some of our favourite custom maps currently available to download and play on Steam Workshop. We picked seven of the best Stronghold community maps from the games' respective Workshop pages, even throwing in an enjoyable Space Colony scenario for you Stig fans out there!

Got a favourite map of your own? Perhaps you uploaded your magnum opus long ago but it never quite made it to the top of the Workshop? Well fear not! We’ll be featuring more community content in future videos, so if you have a map you’d like to shine a spotlight on let us know in the comments and we’ll try it out.

We’re kicking off the year with a short announcement on the status of our upcoming Stronghold game! It gives us great pleasure to announce that we have now entered into full production on the next mainline Stronghold for PC.

Planned for late summer, our full gameplay reveal will include the following:

• Title & Setting - It may surprise you to know that 'Stronghold Next' is just a code name! So we'll be announcing this along with the game's setting.
  
• Planned Features - We'll be talking single player and multiplayer plans for Stronghold Next and the return of some fan-favorite features.
  
• Game Mechanics - Fresh gameplay will give you exciting new ways to play and strategic options for decimating foes on the battlefield.
  
• New Units - Our debut gameplay footage will include a few of the new units you'll be using to besiege your friends at launch.

As with Stronghold Crusader 2, Stronghold Next will be digitally self-published by Firefly Studios and released when it’s ready on Steam. Please look forward to more Stronghold Next information in the coming months and if you have questions about the game let us know!

Along with announcements and interviews we’ll be hosting community Q&As where the Stronghold team answers YOUR questions. So tell us what you want to know in the comments and we’ll do our best to answer them in future videos.

Happy New Year!

Now that Stronghold 2: Steam Edition is available, Stronghold Kingdoms has arrived on mobile and MetaMorph: Dungeon Creatures is rapidly approaching release we thought this would be a great time to update everyone on the state of play.

Watch as our very own Lead Designer Simon Bradbury and coders Matt and Jack update you on all things Firefly with a snapshot on production for each title currently in development:

• Stronghold Next [Working Title] - Now in Active Development
  
• MetaMorph: Dungeon Creatures - Coming Soon to Early Access
  
• Stronghold Kingdoms - New Updates Planned!

In the video above our three developers provide a quick update on each title including new gameplay, timelines and nuggets of information. As we look forward to the release of MetaMorph: Dungeon Creatures on Steam Early Access and prep for full production and the reveal of Stronghold Next in 2018 this new video is designed to let you know exactly where we’re at.

While Stronghold Kingdoms is already available worldwide you can expect MetaMorph to release very soon, followed by a full reveal of Stronghold Next in the not too distant future. Our reveal of the next mainline entry in the Stronghold series will take place next year, including almost everything we can show at that stage and loads of information. Rather than a simple announcement in the form of a logo reveal you expect gameplay footage, the full title, setting, features and new units all in one go!

We hope you enjoy today’s video and look forward to playing these games and updates in the near future.

We have released a small update to address a couple of issues.

• Fixed the "Fetchez La Vache" achievement.
  
• Added an options_override file for players experiencing issues when saving game options. (See below for full details)

Some players have reported that the game does not allow them to load and save games properly. This appears to be because the game cannot access their Documents\Stronghold Crusader 2 folder for an unknown reason. To remedy this we have released an update allowing players to change the directory in which Stronghold Crusader 2 stores all options, saved games, maps etc.

In order to use this players can edit the file in \bin\win32_release\options_override.xml, located in their installed directory. Please read the instructions within the file before editing it.

We strongly suggest only using this override if absolutely necessary, in cases where the default directory cannot be used. Do NOT use this override option if you experience no issues when saving options, progress or saved games within Stronghold Crusader 2.

Please Note: Steam Cloud will not work if you use an override path. Steam Cloud only works with the Documents\Stronghold Crusader 2 folder.

This update should download automatically when you launch the Steam client. To confirm whether or not the download was successful, check the version number displayed in the bottom left corner of the main menu screen when launching Crusader 2. If the number displayed is not 1.0.22670 please restart Steam until the update downloads.
