Now, looking forward to 2013 our first major milestone that is quickly approaching is closed Beta. We are not to the point where we can announce a date yet, but our best statement on the timeframe is Spring 2013, with release tentatively scheduled for the end of the year. We are not under any major deadline, pressure, or financial duress to release by a certain date or time so we want to make sure the game is ready to go when we set an official release date. This will of course depend on how well the Beta goes and the feedback we receive. Our top priority is to ensure that the game launches in a polished and solid state.
One of our shifts in 2013 is going to be the amount of information/press features that will be releasing this year. Starting this month we will be doing more frequent press features focusing on a variety of topics and will start to do more video updates as well in the coming months and more as we enter into Beta. We have a large amount of information available on our website and our forums, but having a more detailed approach on certain topics should help get the word out, allowing those on the fence to evaluate their interest a bit more without drudging around in our forums. We should even have an update to our website/forums early this year with a new sleeker look as well.
Last year we attended GDC and this year we will be attending PAX Prime (Labor Day weekend in Seattle). If you plan on attending or live out in the area and want a chance to come check out the game or just stand around and talk with us please be sure to stop by and visit. We will have additional information once everything is taken care of, but for the time being it is the only planned conference we plan to be at for 2013. We will also be open to talk with the press and show off the game and field any questions during that time so please be sure to get in contact with us if you are interested in an interview as we would be happy to talk to you.
