Dear All,
Long story short - we've decided to change Release Date to 01 Q 2022.
What made us change the release date?
During Closed-Beta we've received a lot o detailed and very specific feedback from our testers. Some of the shared ideas and bugs encountered during closed testing forced us to rewrite major parts of the game's code which we mentioned in our previous announcements. Overall, we've decided to postpone the release date to next year - 01 Q 2022 - as we don't want to deliver a half-baked, unfinished game. Some of you mentioned release date should be switched to TBA due to previous changes regarding the date but at this moment we believe that changing it to TBA would only create unnecessary confusion about current game development. We've also decided to extend the beta testing period so we can get as much as possible feedback from you. There won't be an Early Access phase so the most important part before the final release is to make our game richer, balanced, optimized, and of course - interesting and enjoyable both for new players discovering ancient Egypt and classic city-builders fans.
What will happen in the next few months?
We plan to finish Closed-Beta testing and start Open-Beta testing so don't forget to sign up if you didn't do it already. We're still accepting applications for Beta tests via our survey => Builders of Egypt: Beta Application. For those who signed up earlier - there is no need to do it again, we've your application in our beta database.
What's more? In addition to what we shared till now, besides a lot of additional testing and optimizations, we'll use this time to finish and fully implement the features requested during internal testing and polish existing ones.
Are there any plans to expand Builders of Egypt: Prologue content before the final release?
Yes! Unfortunately, we can't give you more details at this point but as soon as this changes we'll let you know so stay tuned! In the meanwhile, you can explore the First and Second Missions and tell us what would you love to see in the finished game. Guides for both missions are available here.

Don't forget you can always share your ideas not only at Steam Community Hub or Builders of Egypt - Game Supporting Group but also at our Discord server where you can contact us directly or ask about anything regarding our game and its progress.
