Encased will leave Early Access on September 7!

Dozens of new quests, new story chapters, multiple endings, weapons, artifacts, and that's just the tip of the content iceberg, that’s awaiting you.

To brighten up your waiting time, we will continue to publish all the most interesting things from the Encased development.

New Artworks

Our artists continue to add new and, most importantly, memorable pictures to the game. You'll see them while loading locations, as well as in text vignettes or even on posters in living rooms. We try to make the world as lively as possible, that is easy to believe and immerse yourself in.

Updated Combat System

The combat system continues to change and get better, which is why we are so grateful for player feedback! Very soon the game will be more convenient, and most importantly, more fun. Everyone will miss a lot less now in battles.

Locations

Today we want to show you another new location that you'll be able to visit at the game's release this September. It's much more vertical than the previous ones, which will absolutely affect your combat tactics.
