[h3]Hello Knights,[/h3]

We have made the decision to delay the release of King Arthur: Legends Rise until Spring of 2024.

Over the past few months we have had the opportunity to get our game into the hands of players through both PC and mobile beta tests. As some of you who have participated in these tests might already feel, the game currently isn't where it needs to be. These issues have ranged from bugs and gameplay stability issues to core gameplay elements not landing the way that they should. Throughout this process, our community of beta testers have been right there with us, giving us feedback on how to make the game better.

And we hear you.

Our Team is committed to putting in the work to make this game great. We want to assure you that this isn't a superficial "let's just repaint the exterior" situation. It's much deeper.

So, what does this mean in practical terms? BIG changes are coming, including our update coming today, November 15th. Beyond that, we’re thinking about our combat mechanics, RPG systems, how our heroes work, their upgrade systems – basically, everything is on the table for a re-evaluation.

However, these changes take time, so while we are working hard towards that Spring 2024 launch, the schedule may be subject to change if we feel that the game needs more time to meet players' as well as our own expectations.

Thank you again for your patience, feedback, and most importantly, your passion for our game. We're committed to crafting an experience that's worthy of your time and dedication.

We're thrilled to invite you to participate in a King Arthur: Legends Rise Open Technical Playtest on Steam!

For this test we will be focusing on testing the supporting infrastructure that powers your experience in Camelot.

To do this, we created a one-time build based on our current mobile version while the team forges ahead with full DirectX support as well as various usability, graphical and performance enhancements which will take your experience to another level.


📅 Playtest Schedule:

• Start: August 14th at 5:00 pm PDT
  
  
• End: August 25th at 5:00 pm PDT
  

🎮 Key Notes About This Version:

Crossplay & Cross Progression For this test we are disabling cross play and cross progression. This means that progression made here cannot be continued on mobile through linking an account. This will be supported during the full release.

In-Game Progression After the test concludes on August 25th, all in-game progression will be cleared and cannot be carried into our future launch.

User Interface As this version of the game is based on our mobile version the User Interface is not fully optimized. This said, the game does contain a few enhancements for the PC experience (click to move, keyboard shortcuts)



Thank you for being part of our legend. Let's make King Arthur: Legends Rise truly legendary on Steam! 🏰
