[h3]Roadmap for 2024. Purchase a copy now, to support development![/h3]


[h2]CURRENT EARLY ACCESS CONTENT[/h2]

[h2]EARLY ACCESS ROADMAP [ WORK IN PROGRESS ][/h2]
[h3]In addition to continuous update patches addressing bugs and polishing the game, new content is currently a work in progress and will be released as development progresses.[/h3]

[h3]HEAD QUARTERS MUSEUM MAP[/h3]
This will be your source for character, weapon, and outfit collection upgrades. This is currently in the works and will be fine tuned as development progresses offering rewards for completing maps, side objectives, and difficulty settings.


[h3]NEW BOSSES TO COMPLETE CURRENT MAPS[/h3]
We didn't have the time to add final bosses to each region of the game, this will be added as progress develops. Namely Petra's Guardian and Mayan's Secret Guardian. Additionally we will be upgrading Aztec's Guardian Gorilla to secure an exciting ending to each world location explored.


[h3]NEW TREASURE HUNT CHALLENGE MAP IN THE WORKS[/h3]
Furthermore, we will be working on a series of smaller maps designed to test the skills of the most experienced tomb raiders. Old School Tomb Raider Fans will love these 'crack the code' puzzle maps similar to portal difficulty. There is no easy mode here or story offered.
The first map will begin in the Aztec Tzitzimitl.


[h3]NEW EGYPT STORY MAP IN THE WORKS[/h3]
We will continue the story with further maps starting with Egyptian Promise.


[h3]PURCHASE A COPY NOW TO SUPPORT DEVELOPMENT![/h3]
It's important to note that this roadmap is not set in stone. With only two developers, we can only add new features based on our progress and support. If we can acquire the funds, we hope to hire additional help to speed up the process into full release.

[h3]We would like to thank everyone who purchased a copy and supported our development. Your feedback is invaluable to us, so please consider leaving a review. It helps us improve the game and ensures that constructive feedback stands out.[/h3]
