Our dearest Kickstarter backers!
Hope this message finds you in good spirits! We've got some important news to share about Die by the Blade.
After a serious consideration, we mutually agreed to part ways with our publishing partner. It was a difficult decision for everyone to make but it is in the best interest of our game and its future.
We're very sorry for the extended wait for our game, and for the silence. We heard your shouts and concerns, but we were engaged in long and complicated negotiations to acquire the project back from our publishing partner and at the same time to secure an investor to finalize the game. It was frustrating to not be able to share the progress of the complicated situation with you – confidentiality and the idea of jinxing the success kept us on the down-low - but from now on, we can finally talk openly and we will share all with you until the launch!
The cool part? No more delays and full steam to the launch! We're dropping Die by the Blade on PC first on 16.05.2024 followed by XBOX and Playstation versions in October. We put all the efforts to meet your expectations and make Die by the Blade the great game we’ve promised and you supported!
Our focus on delivering the best possible multiplayer experience led us to reevaluate the inclusion of a single-player campaign - a feature we had previously promised. Although we have been working on it, completing it fully would delay the release date even further, so with a heavy heart we’ve decided it will not be part of the game at release.
A lot of time has passed since your Kickstarter contribution and many of you have changed your console already, or are planning to do so in the near future. Therefore we will follow up with the email request to update your preferred platform(s) to your current needs. However, unfortunately the Switch version is beyond our current capacities and we cannot guarantee it will be released. We are very sorry for this change but here's the silver lining – if you're one of the awesome folks who asked for a Switch version, you can choose any other platform, so you can still dive into Die by the Blade on your preferred device.
Thanks a million for sticking with us on this bumpy road and for not giving up on us! As a token of our gratitude we will grant you full access to the game at least two weeks before its release and add an exclusive amazing sword solely for Kickstarter backers which will always serve as a memory of your never-ending support for the game. Check it out below!
We want to chat with you, hear your thoughts, and answer your questions. Hit us up on socials, forums, wherever you hang out. Your input is the most important to us.
Thanks for being the heartbeat of Die by the Blade. This journey's been wild, but we are in the finals now! Sharpen your swords and let's see how many will Die by the Blade this year!
Sharp Regards,
-Die by the Blade Team
