Following up on last week's announcement that #JaggedAlliance3 is coming to consoles tonight we’re talking about controller support. What are the challenges of making complex games feel right on a controller and how we approached it.

Join us over on Twitch at 5:00 PM CEST (in 60 minutes).

Today we’re hosting a Twitch stream to do a bit of catching up. Last weeks have been pretty busy, and ASKA hasn’t been sitting idle. We flew over to Cologne, Germany for Gamescom 2023, we finished up our very first multiplayer beta, and we’ve been adding quite a few cool things to the game!
See you today at 7PM CET on our Twitch channel for a chill hangout to kickoff the new week

Our multiplayer closed beta ran August 11-20, a test which has been especially exciting for us because it was the first proper run of our multiplayer game mode.
We’re happy to say that apart from some bugs which we’ve managed to fix post-test, the multiplayer mode seems solid, without any worrying issues.
So from now on we can focus on preparing the Open Beta, by fixing known issues and adding content.


One thing we’ve learned is that our enemies are a bit too hardcore for new players. There’s plenty to kill during medium and late game, but too few weak enemies to help you learn how to fight. This has led us to come up with The Wisp.
This is a weak entry-level enemy that haunts the shores of ASKA. The lost souls of dead mariners who refuse to leave this world form these wandering entities. Their bodies are made of driftwood and are kept alive by the blood of the Primal Jotun, which taints this land.


The elements continue to be one of the biggest enemies in ASKA, and so our craftsmen have perfected the newest clothing item in the war against cold: the Thick Linen Hood!
Besides feeding into our hooded hero fantasies, the hood is a sturdier alternative to the Linen Cap.


As our enemies grow stronger and stronger with each build, so rises the need for stronger defenses. Our old wattle fences were in need of an upgrade and so our carpenters have been hard at work preparing the planks for a fresh new line of defenses: the Plank Wall, Tower and Gate. These will allow you to better fortify your villages and turn that shanty camp into a true fortified medieval village!

I also wanted to make you all aware of a price increase that will affect all of our existing DLC course and cosmetic packs from 11th September.

While we understand that any price increase can be unwelcome, we are raising the price of existing DLCs to allow us to reinvest back into our ambitious plans for the rest of 2023 and 2024. We’ve heard the community’s feedback and want to push Golf With Your Friends to be the best it can be over the next few years and we hope you’ll stick with us for that!

Don’t worry though! You can still grab the DLC packs at their current price until Monday, 11th September!
