We can't wait to see how you all react to The Ursee, and look forward to your feedback - which you can provide by joining the rest of the founding Falconeers over in the Official Discord!

Don't forget we'll be live in The Ursee at 6pm BST today as part of the Autumn Festival too! So if you missed out on the Beta you can still get some Warbird Action in!

Hello Falconeers!

You have probably never wondered what a Falcons favourite season is - but if you were to ask, it would definitely say Autumn.

For this very reason we are going to be running a series of live streams over the course of the Steam Festival - introducing you to the world of the Ursee and all the action that happens within it!

We'll have event staged Streams on Wednesday the 7th and Tuesday the 13th - as well as daily streams in between :

• Wednesday - 6pm BST - Introducing the Falconeer and Basic Combat
  
• Thursday - 2pm BST - The natural Ursee, and how to use it to your advantage
  
• Friday - 3pm BST - Photo Mode
  
• Monday 3pm - BST - Factions and their Locations
  
• Tuesday - 3pm - BST - Upgrades, Mutagens and any questions and answers!
  

We'll be starting off at the very beginning of the festival with a brief introduction to the world of the Falconeer, so make a mental note and join us for a very special trip through the Ursee!

Today we unveiled the brand new trailer for The Falconeer!

Titled 'The Free and the Fallen' it takes you on a virtual trip of the Ursee, showing some of the locations in the game and explaining the ambitions behind each of the factions...as well as a dire warning from the Enchantress about the fury of the storms and seas.

Pretty intense stuff!

We shared a little preview of The Falconeer on Twitch earlier this week alongside solo developer Tomas Sala, who helped us sharpen our combat skills - gave some context tot he world and its lore, and helped us take a pretty picture in the In-game photo mode!

"I will play more, I know it, working my way through the campaign and shuttling between one precarious culture and the next, uncovering the story of the world, rescuing history from the depths. But for now it is enough to pick a point on the horizon and head for it, wings beating beneath me, and a sense, not necessarily of power well mastered, but of clinging on as hard as I can"

"I'm excited for players to experience the curious and cryptic story for themselves, but for now, I can confidently say I can't wait to uncover the mysteries of the deep and the origins of the falconeers."

"I'm super impressed with The Falconeer so far, and even more so with the knowledge that it's being developed by a single creator, Tomas Sala. I've had plenty of aerobatic fights with angry sky pirates, but there's so much more to do. I've escorted ships across the sea, scouted out missing tech, and been a secret spy for illusive factions, all of which fits into an arching political history between the world's different houses. There are also hints of forgotten ancient technology and treasure beneath the waves, and if you've seen any of the game's bombastic trailers, you know what's to come."
