State of Development

Greetings, following the tradition that we started since the beginning of early access phase 1, today I'm sharing with you the State of Development and the progress made so far for the Final Chapter,"Knights of the Alder Forge". (As announced in March 2021)

Upon its upcoming release, the Alder Forge will transition to its final Early Access Phase and will eventually conclude the game, so without further ado, let's start with a few in-engine renders of areas you might visit in the Final Chapter.

Knights of the Alder Forge will be released in Q3 2023 alongside the Epilogue sequences. A proper release date and chapter trailer will be shared with the Alder Forge community in mid to late July this year.

The Final Chapter will also introduce a new type of battle/interactive sequence the moment Adriel finishes his binding ritual, and the six known Knights of the Alder Forge clash with each other. These interactive experiences will help the player gain extra XP if they make the right choices during said interactions.

I hope that this State of Development has given you an idea about the state of the Alder Forge so far and the upcoming chapter as well and thank you again for your continued support for this world, characters, and story.

Kind Regards, Zine. E. Falouti
