Renowned Explorers: International Society News

Hey there explorers!

The third and final expansion for Renowned Explorers: Quest For The Holy Grail, the Soundtrack, the Art Book and the Renowned Explorers: Definitive Edition are out... now!



The expansion contains a new expedition in which you follow in the spiritual footsteps of a certain whip-wielding archeologist in search for the ultimate treasure in the Middle-East. Meet mysterious Djinns, alluring belly dancers and even some spoiled cats! And what are those dastardly Anti-Explorers up to this time?

The best part: this new expansion will be completely free for all current and future owners of the Renowned Explorers base game! The DLC should be granted automatically after tonight's update.


To celebrate the release of this new expansion, we will be raffling five copies of Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis and five copies of The Curious Expedition between the participants of this week's Community Challenge participants!


You can listen to a sample from the Soundtrack here, or just go directly to the store page!

The Art Book contains concept art, sketches and fully rendered marketing art, as well as a lot of background information and short pieces of written context, provided by the developers.




Are you still missing any of the expansions or the Soundtrack and Art Book? Now is your chance to complete your collection with the Definitive Edition complete-the-set bundle, which includes everything we ever released for Renowned Explorers for an even further discounted price!




In preparation for the launch of Godhood we have started opening up our new Abbey Community forums, so come over and say hi!

Have fun playing!

Hey there explorers!

As you might know from last week's announcement, tomorrow (Thursday, 7:00PM CET) we'll be launching the last Renowned Explorers expansion pack, a Soundtrack, an Art Book, and Renowned Explorers: Definitive Edition collecting all the Renowned Explorers content in one bundle!

Today we especially want to highlight what you're going to get out of the Soundtrack and Art Book. Let's have a look!




For this soundtrack’s release, Abbey Games’ longtime composer Joni van der Leeuw dove back into the source material to rearrange and remaster the lion’s share of the dynamic music from the game into an actual album of twelve tracks. Next to music that you’ll probably recognise from the game, there’s also music from one of the trailers for the game and even a previously unreleased track of music that was used to pitch the idea of the soundtrack within the Abbey Games development team.

You can listen to a sample track of the Emerged Island expedition music here!




Have you always wanted to take a peek behind development curtain of Renowned Explorers? Besides concept art, sketches and fully rendered marketing art, it contains a lot of background information and short pieces of written context, provided by the developers. Also, tons of unused character designs!




We are also preparing a special Community Challenge, where you will be guided on a classic whip-wielding adventure! Make sure to participate in this one, because we will be raffling five copies of Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis and five copies of The Curious Expedition between the participants!

See you tomorrow!

We have been teasing for a while now that we weren't completely done with Renowned Explorers, so we are proud to announce the third and final expansion:




This new expansion will contain a new expedition in which you follow in the spiritual footsteps of a certain whip-wielding archeologist in search for the ultimate treasure in the Middle-East. Meet mysterious Djinns, alluring belly dancers and even some spoiled cats! And what are those dastardly Anti-Explorers up to this time?

The best part: this new expansion will be completely free for all current and future owners of the Renowned Explorers base game!


At the same time, we will also be releasing the two oft requested extras.

• A remastered Original Soundtrack with the best music from the game, including all expedition and overworld music
  
• An Art Book with a selection of concept and in-game art, including never before seen sketches for characters that didn't make the cut!
  

Both the Soundtrack and the Art Book will be available as separate packages or as part of the new Renowned Explorers: Definitive Edition bundle.




To celebrate the last expansion for Renowned Explorers, we are launching a new bundle that collects everything Renowed Explorers in a complete bundle with a big discount. If you are still missing one or more of the expansions, or just need the Soundtrack and Art Book, this one's for you!

In the meantime, we are still hard at work at our new god game, Godhood. Always wanted to create your own religion and dictate your values and beliefs to your followers? You can sign up for the alpha here!

See you all on December 13th!
