I've been eyeing this game since they announced it. But they haven't posted anything since, this one could easily be just another hype based scam.

Above dev diary is fairly recent. December 2025. But yeah, we been burned befor, the namne escapes me, but it was this fantasy, action adventure game, like it would be OK to release today but this was like 2009 or somthing. There was only ever a scripted demo shown.

Have it in wishlist since 2024. And few months earlier have added another similar game - Covenant - which has last "news" on April 2025...
Maybe these games get more news updates on their own Discord servers but not gonna join every single game I play or am interested in.

I don't know. All the interactions look stiff/locked, like they were scripted for the trailer and just "cinematic'. I feel like it would feel really bad in actual play if that's how they play out.
