Underrail Development Log #36: v0.1.13.0 Released, Development Roadmap

The latest development log for Underrail offers some information on the latest update for the title and the development plans for the future. We’re still offered no concrete date or timetable for the game’s release, but it does sound like the bulk of the work has been done:

Now I want to talk a bit about the future development plans. I won’t be giving you a release date, though I can safely say it won’t be this year as I initially hoped. However, know that the end is in sight. When it comes to mechanical stuff, there are still stuff like components, items, feats, abilities, etc to be added. However, there are currently no plans to add any more major mechanics (gas and fire should be the last). From the content side there are two parts of the main quest left that, as it happens, take part in two locations that are yet to be added – Institute of Tchort and Deep Caverns.

So here’s what going to happen.

The next content update that we release will feature Institute of Tchort part of the main questline. This will be the last Early Access release. Afterwards, only the Deep Caverns are left before the game is complete. When we finish those, we will take extra time to polish up the game (we won’t release Deep Caverns right away), especially the older areas which are no longer up to par with the new stuff. We will also take extra time to test the game to stomp out as many bugs as possible. Then we will release the game in full, make lots of money, retire to a tropical island and live happily ever after. That’s the plan at least.

How long will this take? As long as it needs to. It would be pointless for me to give you a release date estimate, since I will gladly ignore it for the sake of the game as I did before. The quality of the game is my primary concern and in the long run that is best for everyone. We’re nearing the end, though, so stay patient, dudes.
