End-of-Year Dev Update

Happy New Year!

We hope you are having a nice break and finding opportunity to spend time with friends and family.

It's been a long and hard road, but we are pleased to announce that we are confident in a 2021 delivery for Anew: The Distant Light on PC. Consoles will follow.

We can also share that this massive and diverse open world will have over 40 hours of gameplay (probably much more). We're designing for exploration, skill play, replay, collection, speed run flow, and hard core options, so many styles of play should find tons of extra value. This amount of content and layers of depth in game mechanics, music, and fiction is quite an undertaking! It has been an insane amount of work for our tiny indie team. There is still work to be done, but we can see the finish line and we hope to share a more specific launch date soon.

As we approach our Beta, please join our Discord for regular updates and a forum to chat about the game with us and other gamers. If you are fluent and literate in a non-English language please direct message @Steve after joining the Discord if you would like to help out with localization for Anew.

We will also continue to post development updates and news on our Facebook and Twitter sites.

Thanks for your continued support, feedback, and encouragement. It helps us improve the game and helps us through these final months of (unpaid) work!
