Lost Falls Found

Champions!

The Lost Falls level, once only used as a demonstration for RTX features, is now available to all!

You can find this brand new level in the QUEST selection menu:



In addition to this, we've made some other very big changes with this new update including an upgrade to Unreal Engine 4.24.3, some new cheats, RTX beta branch improvements and a long awaited change to make weapon speed 'FPS independent' - meaning that higher frame rates will no longer mean slower weapons!



Full patch notes HERE

But what's next?

More RTX improvements including the addition of DLSS 2.0 (thanks Nvidia)

Plus... something DARK is coming...



SOON™

RTX Beta Available Now!



Champions! The rumors are true...

The AMID EVIL RTX beta is here!

You can now test RTX implementation in the brand new AMID EVIL RTX Test Level called... The Lost Falls. (you can also play this level without RTX)



As well as... THE FULL GAME. (Type AELEON to get back to the full game levels)

Seriously... check out the difference RTX makes in Episode 5...



And the final level of Episode 1...



To get on the beta branch to test RTX go to your Steam game properties for AMID EVIL and enter the password AmidRTX12345



Note that we're still hard at work with Nvidia on this RTX implementation so please provide feedback and performance information for us on the forums!

Or come talk to us directly in Discord.gg/NewBlood



Hope you enjoy The Lost Falls and turning your RTX ON, champions!

Ancient Alpha Builds Released!

BEHOLD!

The AMID EVIL Ancient Alpha Builds have been uncovered!
And they're available to play NOW as FREE DLC.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1198780/AMID_EVIL__Ancient_Alphas/
These 5 early builds of AMID EVIL chronicle the game's development from 2016-2017 and will give you a deep look into how the game as you now know it came to be!



You'll get an early look at a VERY different Gateway of the Ancients:



A VERY different looking Aeternum:



Areas that were never used in the final game:



And much much more silly and strange development goodness:



For more information on how best to explore these forgotten worlds, find the readme in your program files or refer to this post on the forums.

Not sure how to install this DLC with the new Steam Library? There's a .gif for that:



Now that we've shown you how OLD AMID EVIL can look, why don't we show you how NEW it can look.

We think it's time to show you how GOOD it can look.

We think it's time to... turn RTX ON.



SOON™

The Weapons Are Sprites?!



Champions!
Since the day we revealed AMID EVIL back in 2017 you've all had one question:

"How can those weapons be sprites?!"
Well, we recently broke down our development process in detail within the latest Unreal Engine tech blog, check it out!

https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/tech-blog/amid-evil-crafting-3d-weapons-into-2d-sprites

From the first test sprite in 2016:


To the WIP Axe of the Black Lanyrinth in 2017:


To the weapon you know and love in all its glory:


All 7 weapons have come a long way and so have we!


In other news: we've just released an update that addresses some remaining bugs and also FINALLY allows you to change the in-game font! (you're welcome)



Until then, Champions...
