For the King - Closed Beta Update

The closed beta that is currently going on for For the King is being updated shortly to version 0.4 and in an update some information is given about it and an upcoming early access of the game.

I’m sure you all know by now that our silence does not indicate a lack of activity. We are hard at work on v0.4 of our closed beta and this will be the biggest update to the game yet by far! We ended up spending longer on this build than we initially anticipated but we got on a roll and were able to check off numerous boxes from our development schedule. We are now in prime position for the final push to early access! Thanks so much for the patience.

This upcoming build will feature a fully operational Act II which brings with it so much new content, new objectives and new locales to explore including the cave, crypt, island, cellar and King’s Maze each with their own unique atmosphere. With new realms to explore we have also reintroduced the mystical Alluring Pools which allow for ease of travel to past explored lands. These were put on the shelf until now to help keep Act I a focused experience.

We have added many combat mechanics as well such as taunting, party buffs and debuffs. These both add a very noticeable element to the game and can make for some very fun strategy. Not only can you buff your fellow players but the enemies are equipped with the same skill sets making for some dynamic battles.

One of our favorite additions is the Goblin Merchant who can be encountered in most dungeons. He is a sight for sore eyes for an unprepared adventurer although his prices are not for those light on gold. He is a shrewd businessman and adjusts his prices accordingly.
