Spirit Of The Island News

Hello, adventurers!

We are happily opening our shores to all visitors - Spirit of the Island is now available in Early Access!



It was a very long journey: from our initial announcement in 2020 to the Early Access launch in 2022. Did you know that SOTI was called "MIAB: Message in a Bottle" before? That feel like such an old story now!

The exciting times are only beginning. We have a lot of things prepared for you. Just to refresh the memory, here's our roadmap:



And that's not all! We will have contests, AMAs, community talks and all that fun stuff too! Players that took part in closed beta know, that we treat feedback with great care and like to work on it.

We will have a 10% discount to celebrate our launch for the next 7 days - don't miss it!

We'd like to say a big "Thank You!" to all people supporting us. Nothing would have been possible without you.

This is the beggining of the next step in our Tropical Adventure. Let's enjoy it to the fullest!

Hello!

Many of you were asking us about the price of the Early Access for non-backers. And we completely understand the interest, so today we are reveling it! Please note that prices above are listed without the 10% discount.



If you want to know the price for other regions - please ask us in the comments, we'll be able to clarify it as soon as possible.

The launch is very soon and we are super excited. Are you?

See you soon!

Hello, friends!

We are excited to reveal our Early Access roadmap. Please note, that all information is subject to change, but this is our plan for the current time. You can see that we don't have a 1.0 release marked here, but don't worry - it's happening in this timeframe but we aren't ready to put it on the roadmap yet. We will share the news about it separately.



As usual, please ask us any questions you have about it! And we are going to reveal the price of the Early Access later this week (for non-backers).

Thank you for staying with us! The big date gets closer and closer each and every day.

See you soon!

Hello friends! How’s it going?

The big day is finally here! We are proud to announce that we are ready to reveal the release date of Early Access!

As we’ve announced before, we decided to postpone the Early Access release to ensure the best possible launch for everyone, and that commitment still stands. Now we are in a place where we can guarantee the best possible experience for everyone - from our dear Backers to all the new players. So mark the date in your calendars, folks!



We’ve prepared many fun activities for the Early Access launch too! A little teaser: we’ll be having a fun contest with very nice prizes, so hone your creative skills. But that’s all we can say right now!

New Features Awaiting You in Early Access
While we did move the release further into the future, the work has never ceased, and Spirit of the Island is looking better than ever. Since November, we’ve been running a special Backer Access version for our Kickstarter backers. And it’s going on incredibly well! Our amazing backers gave us lots of valuable feedback. We’ve already implemented many things that otherwise wouldn’t be in the Early Access day one. To list some examples:

• Repair function — now you can use your hammer to fix other tools (not another hammer, though!) at the expense of the hammer’s durability;
  
• Toggling “Item Drag” in the settings — sometimes you don’t need a magnet for dropped items so that it can be safely disabled now;
  
• Improved water — it looks better than ever now;
  
• Added key bindings, one of the most requested features;
  
• Two new Islands for you to explore!
  

And lots of other stuff! We dive deeper into our latest additions in the development blog, which we released a few weeks before. If you missed it - here it is!

And we aren’t stopping here! Spirit of the Island is all about community-driven development so expect even more feedback-based changes and improvements when we go into Early Access!

We are super excited and can't wait to launch Spirit of the Island officially! Nothing of this would have been possible without the help and support of our dear Backers and the amazing community. To everyone - HUGE thanks!

We'll see you in March!

Hello friends!

How's it been going?

We are glad to present our very first video log of the year, where the lead developer of Spirit of the Island, Alexandre Kikuchi, will talk about the latest additions to the game. Please, enjoy!

Thank you for the overwhelming support and stay tuned for our news - lot's of exciting things are coming for SOTI!
