Commander Quest News

Hello, Commanders!

We are currently working hard towards the goal of launching in the first half of next year. Along with various large and small improvements, we have prepared updates for the official release.

Unfortunately, we also have some disappointing news to share. Support for Spanish and Portuguese, which was previously provided through machine translation, has been discontinued. This decision was made because the quality was lower than we anticipated, and the production cost was high. We feel deeply sorry and regretful about this decision.

We will focus the saved resources on content development. Wishing you an early Happy New Year, and we look forward to seeing you next year. Thank you.

Hello, Commanders!

The Steam Next Fest, where we aimed to prove the potential of our project, has finally come to an end.





Thanks to the active feedback and bug reports from our users, as well as metrics that exceeded our expectations, we feel grateful but also reflective on our shortcomings.

This has clarified our challenges, and we are setting milestones with the determination to work even harder.

To be more specific, we plan to focus on development until the first half of next year to complete the new race and Chapter 3 that we are currently working on. Therefore, we ask for your understanding that updates may be slower than before.

Of course, we will continue to operate our Discord to keep communicating with our users!

Please continue to take an interest in and support our project! We will strive to create an even better game in return. Thank you!
