Unsouled’s Development Status and Roadmap
Hello! Megusta Game here!
It’s been a while since our last post, but we’re back with some important news for you. Please see below for a detailed breakdown of the current development status of Unsouled and our plans for it in the future.
[Development Status]
The main story of the game is all developed and prepared for the Early Access launch, and we are now working on 3 main features (listed below).
1. Currently Working on Boss Rush Mode
Defeating various Bosses with unique mechanisms is one of the best parts of the game. As a way to maximize the fun of boss fights, the Boss rush mode is under development and will be included in the Early Access version of the game. It will provide players with Unsouled’s signature stylish and fast-paced action.
2. Perfect Balancing & Flesh Out Story
Game balance is one of the things that Unsouled cares about the most to enhance our game experience. We are adjusting the balance between enemies and the playable character in combat, so that first-time players can start with a moderately challenging level of difficulty. The game balance will be continuously revised throughout the EA period and a final check will be done through various tests in future.
Likewise, the story of the game is being revised in a big way so that players will be fully immersed in the game itself.
3. Improve the UI/UX
When you play the game several times, the most eye-catching place is the interface related to the HP, stamina, and various souls. We are improving UI/UX in an intuitive way to make it easier to understand everything, and we welcome feedback about this during Early Access.
