GRAVEN News

First post-Launch Patch is Live!

Greetings, everyone!

As we have stated previously, the development journey for GRAVEN is not over with the 1.0 release; we are indeed working on updates and patches to fix various known issues (a list of which can be found here, including some helpful tips should you encounter those) to make it easier and more pleasant for you to walk the Parallel Path. This first patch focuses on various bugs and light rebalancing, we are already working on a next update with even more substantial improvements.

We would like to thank everyone again for reporting all problems you've encountered and sharing your suggestions and all other forms of feedback with us. Please keep doing so, so we can keep improving the game further.

Full Changelog:

Fix for respawning inside of Cruxfirth before completing The Lice Slough, plus moving Cuff Arrow just in case you had already done this.
Fix for Lice Slough barrels infinitely exploding.
Reduced frigid water damage in Hub 2.
Flail has been moderately rebalanced around full stamina and no stamina scenarios.
Tax Collector after lighting the lighthouse is now in a more conspicuous position.

Thief meets Blood in this '90s style gothic boomer shooter, out now

After two-and-a-half years in early access, dark fantasy boomer shooter Graven has exited early access, unleashing its final, ghoul-heavy incarnation upon the gaming public. And if you've got a taste for messily dispatching angular foes, it could well be worth arming up for.

GRAVEN Is Now Out of Early Access!

Greetings, everyone!

We bring truly amazing news - GRAVEN has now left Early Access and is fully released!
We would like to thank everyone who accompanied us on our Early Access journey, it's only thanks to your support and feedback that we've been able to bring you the full experience that GRAVEN has become.

No development journey is truly over at launch day however, and we beseech you, continue sharing your thoughts with us and let us know if you find any problems, as you have during Early Access. We have also created a thread here in Steam discussions listing known issues, with helpful tips for those who encounter certain unpleasant situations, until we patch these pesky bugs out.

GRAVEN’s 1.0 launch introduces two whole new zones: Hub 2, “The Granite Watch,” and Hub 3 “The Subnatural Desert,” as well as expanded depth and finer polish in Hub 1. Also making their debut are 12 new enemy types (for a 24 total), 5 new weapons and spells (bringing the total to 15), 4 rings, 3 new stones for your staff and 1 new potion (for a grand total of 11 items).

Due to the amount of not just new content, but changes and updates to the first hub of the game, saves players have made during Early Access will not work, as we have announced previously.

If you like the game, you might be interested in getting the Digital Artbook and learn more about the process of creating the unique visual style of GRAVEN, or the official Soundtrack to accompany you on your journey on the Parallel Path. You can also get both along with the game in the form of the Deluxe Edition for an extra discount (which applies even if you already own the game).

Speaking of discounts, for the first week from launch, you will be able to get GRAVEN, the Digital Artbook and Soundtrack with a 15% discount, and we have also arranged the following bundles to let you get an even better price, if you already have other awesome games. Or of course, you can just buy them in one neat package now!

Thank you very much for playing and if you like GRAVEN, don't forget to leave a review here on Steam!
