Demo Updates: Farewell to exclusive content, what’s next, and a big THANK YOU!

Dear Jotunnslayers,

As we mentioned before, the exclusive Steam Next Fest demo period is coming to an end.

This demo will be replaced by the previous free demo version and taken down on Monday, Nov 4 at 7 PM CET, meaning that God Loki, the Revenant class, and Halloween content will no longer be available after that date.

The good news? All other improvements to the build will remain in the demo!

While this might sound a bit disheartening, we hope you view the Steam Next Fest period as just a small sneak peek of what’s to come in Early Access. This limited-time access also allowed us to gather valuable feedback from you—the ideas, impressions, and suggestions you shared have been monumental and will help shape our development moving forward.

For that, we owe you a massive THANK YOU!



Our entire team is working tirelessly on balancing and fine-tuning, implementing new content, and making bold game design decisions. Expect more updates from us soon, including news about the Early Access release date.

Now, about those resources you spent!

We know that over the past few weeks, you’ve invested resources and currency into Loki’s virtues and the Revenant’s weapons. We’re happy to confirm that all resources and currency will be fully refunded and transferred to the current demo version, so you can reuse them as you like.

And remember, you still have a few more days for fierce slaying with Loki and the Revenant! Make the most of them!

Once again, thank you so much for being with us and for your incredible support!

With gratitude,
The Jotunnslayer Dev Team
