Hello everyone!
Happy Winter Solstice to you all! Today we’re excited to share our brand new Wargroove website and Steam ‘Coming Soon’ page, so you can start wishlisting straight away to get notified when the game launches! Woo hoo!
The team here has been working super hard in the run-up to the holidays, with the Q1 2019 launch window creeping up fast, so we’re happy to share some cool new things with you:
New Gameplay Trailer!
With our Steam page comes a new gameplay trailer, which showcases some updated footage of battle scenes, groove animations, animated cut-scenes, naval combat, the overworld map, as well as some map editor scenes! You can even spot a rather glorious Floran ‘Bloom Dragon‘ at the end, which some of you may not have seen in action before.
New (digital) Box Art!
You may recognise a few familiar faces in the awesome new artwork we’re using for our storefronts. There are a few different versions of the box art depending on where it’s used, including a squarer format with Valder towering over the other Commanders rather menacingly. We’re really happy with how it has come together, and hope you like it too!
Which Wargroove Faction Are You?
We wanted to include something fun for the community ahead of the launch Q1 next year, so have created a Faction Quiz on our new website, where you can answer a series of questions to discover where your allegiance truly lies. Here you can also learn more about the Cherrystone Kingdom, Heavensong Empire, Felheim Legion and Floran Tribes. You may even spot some splendid new background art while you’re at it!
After you’ve completed the quiz, you can share your results directly to Twitter and Facebook, or let us know your faction in the Wargroove Discord. Unless of course you get Felheim, in which case you may want to keep that one to yourself…
Game Localisations!
We know many of you have been eager to find out what languages Wargroove will be available to play in when it launches, and now that localisations are fully underway we’re happy to confirm the game will be playable in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Japanese as well as Traditional & Simplified Chinese.
We’re really hoping these languages will be available at launch, but as they’re still undergoing translation work please keep in mind we won’t be able to confirm exactly when they’ll be available until closer to the release. Rest assured though, they’re in the works! In terms of any other languages, we’re not ruling out further localisation at this point, but this is what is planned for the time being.
Thanks as always for all of the support and patience while we’ve been putting the final pieces of the game in place this year. From the whole team at Chucklefish, we wish you all a very Merry Christmas and wonderful New Year. Here’s to an exciting 2019!
