According to this Steam announcement, a new trailer for Gamera Interactive's narrative-driven action-RPG Alaloth: Champions of The Four Kingdoms is going to reveal the release window for the game on May 30, 2022. We're also told that in June, we'll be able to purchase Alaloth - The Tempest, a comic book that will introduce us to the game's world.
Here's more on that:
Hello Champions!
As you probably noticed, we just refreshed our Steam page a bit, uploading a bunch of new in-game shots from the latest build we delivered in the morning. Shots come along with a brand new key art, showing a new Alaloth too: he wears a mask now and it's way more lethal than before! We had a rework of the boss here time ago and we were planning to share this since a long time. This is just one of the many things we've iterated on the way, both tech & lore related. As we said recently, there is so much stuff to show after the long silence that we literally spent last weeks trying to figure out the best scenario to send out everything with a ratio, while dealing with all the biz-related stuff that is directly connected with the release of the game. Well, we can say that despite the fact that we had to squeeze in just a couple of weeks, work usually done in months, we have finally an idea of the next steps that we'll bring us to the day in which we are going to push the green button. The plan is not complete 100% but hey, the path is set and it's like fresh air for us.
First of all, we've just done with the new trailer. Yes. It is a 2.30 clip full of love and stuff but the most important thing is that we are going to announce the release window with it. Details about the final release date will follow. May 30 is the day, trailer will be out by that date so...next Monday! Please don't ask about the final release date: we'll have an official one very very soon, a few cool things are in progress and the final decision needs further consideration on our side. We can't wait to say more and we encourage you all to join us on Discord to get in touch directly. We are going to use it as main source for lore related stuff to share, because we realized it's pretty impossible to go on with Steam updates for each cool little thing we've created. This means we are going to go on with tons of updates here but they will be dedicated to major systems, major features and such. If you want to know more about the story of a very unique secondary char or clan or location [given that we are going to put as much as possible in terms of contents here], you'll find all this stuff on our channels. AMA on the way too and a full schedule of streaming sessions on Twitch as well. We've unofficially shown gameplay already, the idea is to go on with almost daily sessions while polishing stuff. All of this happening starting from the next month Follow us on Twitch too. Pass by and say hello to Alberto screaming at the wiki while spotting the latest known bug of the game codex!
Last but not least: June will be interesting as well! Alaloth - The Tempest will be released in bookstores, comic shops and online digital outlets by our partner, Edizioni BD, which handles the international licensing too. This means that the comic will be available both in printed and digital versions across EU and US soon [from June 1 on]. The comic is a stand-alone adventure set in Plamen that introduces the world of Alaloth - Champions of The Four Kingdoms and it's our first licensing deal in place to push our universe on different media. The amazing cover is from the Eisner-nominee Simone Di Meo and Marvel artist Alessandro Cappuccio [Moon Knight, Fantastic Four] drawing the full volume [112 pages]. Moreover, the game has been selected for WN Conference Instanbul '22 and will be showcased during the show, competing for the best indie title awards. We didn't attend events since a very long time and we can't wait to be back in action.
Next steps: a massive artbook [250+ pages], novels [ready!], an amazing OST [3+ hours in-house made], and much more. We'll have time to talk about this and yes, we have plans for Limited Edition[s], retail and all the things that we had in mind at the very beginning of this journey. Talking with many cool people willing to jump in and help right now.
