Greetings, Extinction Elites!

[h3]What's been going on?[/h3]

Long time no see! We’ve been mostly quiet during the past 8 months, which is something we would never do if it wasn’t necessary. Those of you who joined before the development break know us as a team who communicates a lot with our community and actively works to get feedback integrated into our game.
You were always a huge part of the development cycle to us and we’ve missed interacting with you on more in-depth levels about what you like, dislike, want, need, et cetera.
During the break and following it up until now, there were so many moving parts that we just couldn’t keep you in the loop, as much as we wanted to.

We’ve heard a lot of you express your frustration about bugs that have been in the game for a long time (looking at you Xbox players, we haven’t forgotten!) and voicing your concern that we’ve abandoned the game or that we’re doing the bare minimum.
We’re here today to reassure you that’s not the case. Development is going more efficiently than ever, we love what we’re doing, and we think that you’re going to as well.
But enough talk about what we've been doing - we want to show you firsthand! We’ve put in countless hours and a ton of effort and are now finally ready to show off what we’ve been cooking up since last year!


[h3]Closed Beta[/h3]

From August 12th until August 15th, 2022, we’re offering a select group of players a look at our current development state in a Closed Beta. All we ask for in return is that you fill out a questionnaire about your experience and your opinion afterwards.

Blogpost + Signup link here!

Sign up for the Closed Beta and with a little luck, you’ll be one of the chosen to set foot on the new map and experience the new features and improvements that we’ve worked so hard to get right!
Note that you have to be over 18 to sign up, as you’ll be signing a Non-Disclosure Agreement.

We’re extremely proud of what we have accomplished over the last couple of months and we can’t wait to hear what you think about it.
The feedback we gather from the Closed Beta will be used to give the game the last polish it needs before we release it at Full Launch. Unfortunately, we still can’t tell you when that will be, but you’ll find out well in advance, don’t worry!

Again, we want to thank you for your patience and your unending support. We see you all expressing your love for Second Extinction on our Social Media and our Discord server and it inspires us every day to work even harder and make it a game you don’t want to put down and will continue coming back to time and time again.

We're back!

Greetings, Extinction Elites!

As you all know, last December we entered a phase where we paused development of new features in order to focus on the direction Second Extinction is headed in as a game.

We can happily report that thanks to your feedback and the incredible efforts of our development team we now have a clear vision of what Second Extinction will look like at full release.

Our efforts and resources are now fully focused on finishing and polishing the content and fixes that will be available when we exit Early Access.

This means that from now until the full release of Second Extinction, there will not be any additional major content updates. You may see smaller patches for urgent fixes, but apart from that we’re saving all the awesome goodies for that special day!

There is a ton of content we’re working on and we can’t wait to show it to you!
While we’re not ready to share any details quite yet, we plan on posting some tidbits, teasers, and tasty treats during the time leading up to release on our social media channels, so keep an eye out!

As always, we’re looking forward to hearing your opinions, feedback, and comments! Thank you so much for your continued support of Second Extinction and our Team.
Without you, we wouldn’t be where we are today.
