Expansion Reveal

This week we have good news on multiple fronts; we will be able to reveal our expansion very soon (read on for more information) and we are pleased to announce that Lost Pilgrims Studio will again be participating in Tacticon, an annual digital convention hosted on Steam that celebrates strategy games from a wide array of talented developers. The convention is hosted by Indie strategy and tactics game publishers Firesquid and Hooded Horse and will run between the 11th and 15th of May. For full details of the event, you can visit Tacticon's website here.

We were at Tacticon last year to announce our second free DLC, Seekers of Knowledge, but this year, we have something a little more prestigious to reveal: details about our upcoming expansion and a trailer showcasing it. It's been a long time coming and we can't wait to share more with you as we edge closer to its release. On that note, we'd point you to their stream as a small segment will be dedicated to the expansion's reveal, with a short discussion about it from the hosts. We can also confirm that the reveal and discussion will take place on May 11th, between 1:45 and 2:15 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST).

Finally, here is a link to Tacticon's Showcase stream where you can watch live: https://store.steampowered.com/sale/TactiCon

We hope you'll enjoy a glimpse at what we've been working on at Tacticon, and, as always - stay safe and conquer the wasteland!

Vagrus - The Riven Realms - Expansion Announcement: Sunfire and Moonshadow - Steam News

The time has finally come to announce our upcoming expansion for Vagrus and go into a little detail about what we’ve been working on for the past seven months. It’s been a long, hard road, and while we’re slowly making our way to the finish line, we still have a great deal of testing to do, plus...

Occupying the northwestern corner of the continent of Xeryn, a desert older than the Calamity lies between the Brown Mountains and the River Lethe: the Bronze Desert. It is a realm torn by war in more than one way. The Empire rallies its immense legions here, sending them north toward the Green Continent to lay waste to its lush lands while the elite Chimera Legion remains behind to oversee this arid staging ground. Deep in the desert, however, lurks a different threat – that of the Ahari. Birthed by the native Bandul and tempered by their unwillingness to yield in the face of Imperial oppression, the Ahari seek to win back their sacred oases and holy sites, fighting an impossible campaign of terror. Amidst it all are the Handjari, sworn allies of the Empire and stewards of the greatest city in all the Bronze Desert – Kabur, the Jewel of the North.

The stage is set, the stakes are high. Who will you, a mere vagrus, align yourself with? The mysterious Ahari and their Sun God or the cruel Chimera Legion and their ruthlessly pragmatic leader, the Legate? Your decisions will shape the fate of the region writ large, paving the way for a new, uncertain future throughout the Realms.

And yet, dear vagabond, how will you reach such a land, cut off from the outside by raging winds and deadly geography? Surely, you will need to traverse the Realms in a new, peculiar way rarely ever used by other vagri.
