How the time flies... Last time we were reaching out talking about the update to our five-chapter demo, and now, well, we got some big news.

Utopia is releasing on Steam Early Access this 27th of July!

And this is not just double amount of chapter we are bringing, it's over three times.

The Early Access Build will come with access with chapter 0-17!! That's close to 8-10 hours of narrative-driven gameplay!

You will see a lot of our three protagonists, a lot of all our cast, and the story, but that's not all, we've structured and prepared our workflow for this day.

We will be sure to update the Early Access build regularly, not just to do any fixing that might come up, but to bring you more chapters as we build up towards the full release later this year with all our 32 chapters of the game.

While chapters 18-32 are still in development, we are very confident about how they are coming along, and we'll be happy to bring you more chapters through the early access until your build updates to the full V1.0 game.

We've also thought of all of you who supported our game and enjoyed playing through our 5 chapter demo, while you will be able to play back chapter 0-5, as any other chapter through our replay menu, we've made sure the progress you made during the demo is not lost, for those that played the 5 chapter demo, the game will automatically detect your progress, and prompt you to start from chapter 6 where you left off, ensuring you have a smooth transition from our free demo to our EA build.

This also means, that if you haven't had the chance to play our free demo, now is the best place to start! You can play without worry of losing your progress, so go ahead and enjoy the experience!

Like always, we will be listening to your feedback and words of encouragment, and we hope you continue to support us and enjoy Utopia: Birth of the Heroes Early Access!

Please, wishlist our game if you haven't already to make sure you are notified about the release of the Early Access!

Have a blast playing what makes you happy!

-Your friends from Mana Core Game Studios
