We are excited to announce our partnership with BisectHosting! Announcement BH has been an integral part of the development process for many years now, providing us with servers for everyone to play on and as such we will be working with them on Renowns launch to bring servers online across the entire world so everyone can experience Renown with great ping! We have always been heavily in support of community run servers, allowing our players to alter the game to their liking and their communities. If you are interested in setting up a server of your own when Renown launches we have added a #Server-Hosting Channel with links to their website. Renown Server Hosting We also had a great interview with their team which you can check out here Huge thanks to BH for everything they have done for us and continue to do! We have also had a great roadmap graphic whipped up that outlines some of the planned features and content updates as Renown hits early access (Stage 0) . We hope to have some of stage 0s tasks ticked off before EA release.

Renown takes the most enjoyable and popular aspects from contemporary open-world survival games which include Building, Progression and Social Politics. These are then combined with close quarters, skill-based combat to create an immersive and engaging multiplayer experience. 

Combat
The combat system functions with a set of easy to learn, hard to master fighting mechanics. The system is also built so that it is very easy to understand, allowing new players to easily learn the basics. As players become comfortable with the system, their developing level of skill becomes a major source of enjoyment.



Building
The building system uses an easy-to-understand and deploy method. This allows for greater depth when creating both small and large castle or village-type structures. From a small house with only a door, players expand into fully customized castles, creating structures truly unique to the person's ability and experience.



Raiding
The raiding system represents the pivotal activity that all types of players can undertake in-game. What’s the point in building a great castle if you can’t level someone else's to the ground. In a way the players are always in an “Arms Race” to see who can build the strongest, smartest, and most awe-inspiring structures. We want to provide you with just as awe-inspiring weapons, siege engines and all the utilities required for an ongoing medieval war.
