Development status of the next work #3

Hello, Troubleshooters!, this is the Troubleshooter development team.

It’s already autumn in Korea! Time sure is fast, since our last news was published last summer.

Today, we’re here to show you our progress on developing “Troubleshooter: Banished Children”.


[h2]1. Rework on Characters from the Previous Game[/h2]
In “Troubleshooter: Banished Children”, you can encounter some familiar figures, who left Valhalla to reach 『 Fortress of Suffering 』 from “Troubleshooter: Abandoned Children”.

Those who will have the most influence over Kalter Mountains among the people who departed to the region will be 『 Spoonists 』, who caused much trouble in Valhalla, and 『 Hanged Crown 』, the PMC led by Ben, working for Edward.

In “Troubleshooter: Abandoned Children”, we couldn’t capture the feeling of those characters in their concept art or 3D modelings, due to our lack of skills.

We will make them reappear in our sequel with better quality.

[h3]1-A, Spoonists[/h3]


From the left, Carter, Turk, Naam, and Nevil.

Those are the key figures of Spoonists, who follow the teaching of 『 Spoonage 』 and take their journey to 『 The Land of Feast 』.

The Leader of the Cult, Carter, wants to shepherd his people safely by traveling via 『 Kalter Reservation 』, where the world superpowers and Valhalla can’t exert their influence.

Calling themselves 『 Pilgrims 』, they try not to menace the natives of Kalter, but the local population considers them a weird group who spread strange teachings of 『 Spoonage 』 while wearing masks and carrying spoons.


[h3]1-B, Hanged Crown[/h3]


From the left, Ben, Sanson, Gentaro, Yeong-Cheol, Gyro, and Sancho

The Drifter Clowns, who worked in the underworld of Valhalla, is reborn as the infamous PMC 『 Hanged Crown 』 again.

While accumulating wealth by extorting the money of weaker criminal gangs in Valhalla, Ben accepted the offer of “Edward”, one of the higher-ups at Valhalla, and made their way to Kalter Mountains.

They are also the main culprits of the massacre of civilians in the Kalter Mountains after the World War.

Like what they did in “Troubleshooter: Abandoned Children”, Hanged Crown will take the key role in the story of “Troubleshooter: Banished Children”.

During her journey, Ari will encounter them and face many events. We’ll do our best to present you with those interesting stories to unfold!


[h2]2. New BGM[/h2]

Kazing of team SFA, who worked on many soundtracks on “Troubleshooter: Abandoned Children” has decided to work with us again in “Troubleshooter: Banished Children”.

Besides Kazing, we’ll also do our best to make an opportunity to work again with other companies and artists who have worked with us before.


[h2]3. New Enemies and Factions[/h2]

[h3]3-A, Coven[/h3]


From left, Nana, Catherine, Rose, and Maya.

These are members of 『 Coven 』, the secret society active in Kalter Mountains All of them are ESP users, also referred to as 『 Witch 』.

Historically, they succeeded in the unique name of famous witches of the past, and they are still making many legends in the Kalter Mountains and throughout the continent.

Moreover, in Kalter Mountains, there are rumors of many treasures hidden inside the 『 Witch’s Shrine 』, where the witches irregularly gather.


[h3]Sandy[/h3]


From left, Mikhail, Drew, Evelynn, Maverick, Mary

Sandy is a union of truckers based on the southern traversing route of Kalter Mountain, also called “Thousand Roads of Caravans”. Most of them are from the Sandrock Tribe.

They started as a small group of caravans but made it through 300 years. However, their operations are heavily damaged by recently increasing bandits.

Now they are fighting over how they’re going to solve this problem. Evelynn and her followers want to avoid unnecessary conflict by paying some bandits a ‘protection fee’, while Mikhail and his followers claim not to negotiate with bandits.


That's all the news we prepared today.

We will not stop developing the game so that we can give you a little more new news next time.


Thank you.
