NEW SKINS, NEW LANGUAGES - the Steam Winter Sale is here!

[h2]Hello, Horde![/h2]

WHAT A YEAR IT’S BEEN! As 2025 slowly creeps closer, we’ve decided to take a step back, reflect on the whirlwind behind us, and, of course… give away some gifts! Let’s dive in!

[h2]GHOST OF HORDE PAST[/h2]

When we first announced Be My Horde back in February, we had no idea where the journey would lead us. What started as a small, experimental project designed to help us learn a few things quickly grew into something far bigger than we anticipated. We thought, “Maybe someone will notice it, maybe no one will.” But the overwhelmingly positive reception flipped everything upside down. Thanks to your enthusiasm, we chose to dedicate far more time and energy to the game’s development than we originally planned (you can clearly see it by the Early Access launch date we shared in that announcement... ah, we were so naive). And what followed was nothing short of incredible:

Presenting the game at PAX East in Boston. Featuring the Be My Horde trailer at the OTK Games Expo. Showcasing the game at gamescom in Cologne (yes, THE gamescom!). Hosting a big, vibrant stand at PGA in Poznań. Amidst all the updates, contests, bug fixes, and moments of stress, there was also so much joy. Somehow, it feels like we announced the game just yesterday—and yet, at the same time, like it’s been 100 years.

And this is still just the beginning!



Thank you for sticking with us on this adventure. Your support has been the driving force behind this project’s growth. We couldn’t have dreamed of a better community—one so eager to share feedback, give us encouragement, and simply let us know how you’re doing. You’ve made this entire journey far more enjoyable.

If you haven’t already, be sure to join our Discord server! A whole community of necromancy adepts is waiting for you.

[h2]GHOST OF HORDE PRESENT[/h2]

We know we can’t thank you enough, but we do have a few gifts for you!

Hallo! Bonjour! As we’ve mentioned in previous announcements, one of our goals is to implement as many languages as possible into Be My Horde. While the process is gradual, we’re making steady progress every month. Until now, the game has only been available in English and Polish. But today, we’re thrilled to announce the addition of TWO new languages: German and French!

You can change the language in the options menu. We hope this update makes the game even more enjoyable for our players in Germany and France!



Our second gift is for everyone: TWO NEW OUTFITS FOR MORIANA! You’ll find these in Moriana’s delightfully eccentric wardrobe.

One outfit is immediately available for you for free during the festive season, but be sure to launch the game quickly and grab it! After January 19th, it'll start costing some souls! (don't worry, not your own, but you get it)
The second outfit needs to be unlocked by defeating King Richard III Ovine.
But don’t worry—if you’ve already taken down the bearded ruler, you won’t need to do it again (unless you want to!).



Beyond the game itself, we’re also working on some cool extras. One we’re excited to share now is an interview with Ryan Cooper, the talented voice actor behind King Richard. Ryan is one of the most genuine and charismatic people we’ve had the pleasure of working with and chatting with him was an absolute joy.

Feel free to watch the interview below—and don’t forget to send some love to Ryan! After all, the king (poorly treated by Moriana) could use some sympathy:

[h2]GHOST OF HORDE FUTURE[/h2]

The gifts have been handed out. The update is live. So… what’s next?

For us, the next couple of weeks will be a time to rest and reflect. We’ll slow down, take stock of everything, and think deeply about what’s next. Of course, we already have plans for future updates. We know where we want to take you, who we want you to meet, and what adventures await you and Moriana. But now, it’s time to work out the details.

We know some of you have been asking for more transparency about what we’re working on. We apologize if we haven’t always been as open as we could be. It’s not because we’re hiding anything—sometimes even we didn’t know what was coming next! Planning is something we’re still learning, but we’re getting better at it.

The internal roadmap we created a few days ago feels solid, and we’re excited to bring you behind the scenes more often starting in January 2025. We promise: no more secrets… well, maybe a few. Surprises are fun, after all! But overall, we’ll be sharing much more about where Be My Horde is heading in the months to come. Stay tuned!

Alright, we’ve got a few loose ends to tie up before we take our well-earned break. As for you, go try out the new outfits, check out the interview with Ryan Cooper, and have a blast commanding your massive hordes of undead! Spending the holidays with Moriana sounds kind of cool, doesn’t it?

Take care, and as always…

PRAISE BE MORIANA!
