Less than 24 hours to go! PREPARE TO ASCEND!

Control your Warbird with lethal accuracy this November 10th by hooking up a flightstick and ruling the skies!

Dodge, dip, dive, duck and destroy your opponents as you master the art of handling a fearsome warbird with your very own hands!

Whilst most people associate flightsticks with starfighters or aircraft, you'd be surprised at just how agile a falcon can be with direct control.

Don't believe us? Check out this video we put together with ThrustMaster to show just how awesome it is!

On launch flightstick support will be solely on PC, with Xbox support being looked at further down the line!

Add the the game to your wishlist today to be alerted as soon as it's time to take to the skies!

In what has felt like the blink of an eye - The Falconeer beta is now over

We hope you enjoyed your time in the Ursee - and would like to once again thank you for your eagle eyed dedication to sniffing out bugs and providing some incredible feedback - you only need look at the list of updates Tomas put out over the past 5 days in the Discord, or in the forums here to see how crucial your input has been, and we appreciate it so very much.

We'll be closing down the Discord beta channels to tidy things up in a couple of days once we've been sure we've caught everything and request that if you have any further feedback or bugs to mention, that you submit them via this Google Form :

The Falconeer Feedback and Bug Report

Everyone that submits their feedback in this manner will be able to submit their name for inclusion in the PC version credits as a special thanks as our way of saying thank you for your support.

It's been a very busy week for everyone! And there is much left to do!

We'll be live on the Steam page tomorrow for the last day of the Steam festival to share a little more Ursee action - Tomas will be knee deep in going over your feedback - and in The Falconeer Discord, the story of the events that led to the formation of the Ursee as we know it will begin to unfold very soon - even outside of the game your actions are going to have an impact on how the history of the land is told.

Continue to share your creations from the beta on with @wiredp on Twitter with #BigAssBird to potentially win a copy of The Falconeer on launch!
