Have fun in the world of Heryon!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/269190/Edge_Of_Eternity/

The past weeks have been quite productive for us. In November we released the Chapter IV, that was our most ambitious chapter so far (https://steamcommunity.com/games/269190/announcements/detail/1618409350701958851) and last week we celebrated the Early Access anniversary (https://steamcommunity.com/games/269190/announcements/detail/1731001878057895674).

As promised, we now want to share with you our plans for the upcoming months. As we did for the Early Access launch, we’d like to share a small visual impression of our journey:



As you can see, with Chapter IV we made it to the halfway point of the Early Access!
At Midgar Studio, the team really feels that Edge Of Eternity has stepped up recently with this release. The game has now 25 hours of solid content. If you were hesitating we are pretty confident to say that now is a good time to join us in Heryon! ;)

And there’s even more to come. Let’s have a look at the next steps:

Chapter 0 : January 2020

This update will be quite unique. It will not provide you with the continuation of Daryon’s adventure as you are used to with every chapter so far. This update will focus on reworking the early hours of the game.
For newcomers, it will mean a brand new tutorial & new introduction to the game. For current players we strongly recommend to start another save for a bit for you to know about Daryon’s past (and come back later to your current save). This part will offer a quite interesting (as we hope) narrative introduction to the game.


Chapter 5 : March 2020

We’ll be back on the main story line and introduce you to a new character. You will also be invited to venture into a new dungeon.
This update will also invite you to return to previously visited locations that will offer many new quests and an increased difficulty level.

Chapter 6 : June 2020

Daryon’s fellowship will continue its adventure in new Desert and Volcano areas. Along with a new turn of events in the main story, this update will focus on special personal quests for the main characters. A way to find out about their backstories and motivations in this very damaged world.

And with Chapter VI we should be able to release our most anticipated “Nekaroo Farm” !

Chapter 7 : September 2020

Late 2020 / game release
The release of the game will come with a final massive update.You really think we’re gonna give any hint about how this will end! :)

As you can see we have still a lot to come. It will be a long a very productive year and we are all committed to release the full game before the end of next year.
We have many surprises to come. Things we’ve been working on for a while as well as fresh new additions we want to make to the game based on your feedbacks.

Keep on telling us what you like or dislike in Edge of Eternity. It’s a real fuel for making the game and we cannot value more the players message we receive.
And again we would like to thank you all for the incredible benevolence you have towards us.

Don't forget that the game is also on sale with 25% off until next week (December 16th) if you don't have the game yet :) Thanks for reading & see you soon in Heryon!

The third update focused on the development of the arch around Alpharius, the master of Selene. Our heroes had to face great dangers going through the Pass of Olphara to get precious information about the Corrosion, the sickness that the mother of Daryon & Selene is suffering. We also added the Special Attack for Selene & fixed various bugs & balance levels of some monsters.

Features

• Up to 8 new hours of gameplay and story content:

[/b]
A lot of new quests await in this chapter. Some with surprises - but all with rewards! You might want to exert your best judgement in some of them, though.
New weapons - including legendary, unique items. The Dead Man's Grip, Coruscantis, The fabled Golden Pardon... Will you be able to find them all?

New playable character “Ysoris”:

[/b]
Recruit Ysoris, the only man known to have survived the Corrosion. His wit is as dry as the bottom of his bottles - stay clear of the path of destruction he carves as he wieild his trusty scythe "Good Ol' Rightie" into battle!

New Major City : Tyr Caelum:

[/b]
The City of Technomages - built into the gigantic wreckage of an Archelite Spaceship, a community of wizards and scientists delve into the forbidden secrets of alien technology.
Far from being a technological utopia, Tyr-Caelum is not the paradise every refugee hoped it would be. Many people there struggle with the inevitable fallouts that goes with living in a city infested with mysterious technology.

New Area : Heretic’s Trail

[/b]
The ominous jungle surrouding Tyr-Caelum is full of peril - coming in the form of Nepentha et Red Widows - terrible monsters who spawns by dozens everytime one of their egg hatches. Who knows what kind of meat the Widowling will crave once they are finished devouring their own mother? Needless to say, be careful - you might even find a village over there, hidden in the treetops.

New Dungeon : Junkyard

[/b]
A dangerous "no-man's zone" where only but the bravest - or hungriest - scavengers dare to go. Many dangerous broken machines there. Warmachines, that could spring alive at the mere touch of an unwary boot.

Weapon changes:

[/b]
We changed the way that weapon levels work, weapons now will only gain minor stats by leveling but now levels are used to unlock crystal slots in the tree so when you find a new weapon tiers it’s always stronger than the previous one.

Characters scene system:

[/b]
A new feature (still-in-development) where you will be able to explore the lore of Heryon, watch the members of the group discuss with each other and strengthen
their bonds at the inn or a campfire!

[/b]
By sleeping in an inn, you can now decide the moment you will wake up - Now you can enjoy sunrises and sunsets at will!
