Demeo News

Hello Adventurers,

This Tuesday, May 16, we will be combining the store pages for Demeo and Demeo: PC Edition. After this change, existing players will be able to decide when launching Demeo if they would like to play the PC or VR version of the game without needing to have a second game installed. Players will also be able to switch between the two versions at any point in time by restarting the game.

When we originally launched Demeo: PC Edition, we gave the experience its own unique store page to make it clear for non-VR players that they are able to play the game without a VR headset. But because we also wanted players to have both versions of the game on Steam without paying an extra price, we had to bundle these for purchase as a Collection. Over the last year, it has become apparent that this structure has resulted in confusion for some of Demeo’s potential players. We want to make sure the Demeo purchasing experience is clear and concise for anyone who might be keen to join in our adventures — which is why we are now combining the Demeo and the Demeo: PC Edition store pages.

To accomplish this, the Demeo: PC Edition store page will be deprecated, and new owners will be directed to the existing Demeo store page, which will now include both versions. Players who have previously purchased Demeo: PC Edition will still be able to play this version of the game without any changes, and will retain their progress and unlocked achievements.

Thank you for your continued support of Demeo and we hope you look forward to the game patch coming next week.

We know that you've been itching to know more about Demeo Battles, the competitive PvP entry in the Demeo universe, and today we wanted to let you know that it will be a standalone title!

Since its initial announcement in the Demeo Roadmap in 2021, we've seen Demeo Battles grow from a gameplay prototype into a full experience of its own. Demeo Battles will give you a new way to take part in the world of Demeo, with an added layer of depth and competition that’s unlike anything players have seen before.
