Early Access Plans and Roadmap

While the game is now available for play, the developers have outlined their roadmap for the Early Access phase. Among the planned features are new classes, lobbies, enhanced statistics for in-game items, improvements to the combat log, and adjustments to the ranking system. Additionally, players can expect an expanded unique item pool, new character outfits, and ongoing patches introducing fresh content and optimizations.

You can catch a glimpse here:

Full Release Sneak Peek

The ultimate goal for the end of the Early Access journey is the full release, marked by the introduction of the "Adventurer" class, a character breaking free from typical class restrictions. Steam achievements will also accompany the full release, providing players with additional goals to achieve. The Adventurer class concept includes starting each round with random items, akin to the "Present" unique, offering a unique twist to gameplay. However, the developers emphasize that this concept is subject to change as it remains in the early planning stages.

Updated Patch Schedule and Demo Availability

To focus on implementing significant features, the developers will shift from their weekly patch schedule to less regular, larger patches during the Early Access phase. Meanwhile, the demo remains available on both Steam and itch.io, providing an opportunity for players to test the waters before committing to the full game.

Excitement doesn't end with the game's release; Backpack Battles is also offering two enticing bundles with a 10% discount. Featuring acclaimed titles like Slay the Spire and Brotato, these bundles provide players with additional gaming experiences at a special price.
