Hi everyone!
We've been teasing some big news for a while and, this is it! We would like to announce that on the 26th of August we are removing the demo from Steam, and starting the Prologue! Before anything else, you should head over to the Prologue Steam page and wishlist so you will know as soon as it's available!

Now, why is this big news? Because the Prologue is coming with a TON of new content available for free before the release of the game! Let me show you some of the new stuff you can expect to try in the Prologue:
New Characters and Weapons:
New skills to explore:
New Lord of the Void:
System improvements and fixes
May not be as flashy as the above but the Prologue will come with a bunch of overall improvements, fixes and optimisations currently not available in the demo!
But... Is this the full game then?
No, my friend, not even close! We have SO much more in store for the full version (which is coming hopefully by November!), so many new
characters,
weapons, the fabled
Rune system which will shape the way you play the game, the feared
Affixes system to make your runs extremely challenging and offer unique rewards, a LOT of
new Lords of the Void and challenges to face,
unlocks,
achievements,
endless mode... and the list goes on!
So we will now have 6 characters to play with?!
Not quite. We will be temporarily
saying farewell to the Spellbreaker, the Sentinel and to the Arcane Weaver. If you played the Demo and unlocked those characters and their weapons, don't worry, your progress is safe! But, they will be taking some time off after killing Alexi so many times! We will also be removing some active skills from circulation for now.
They are all coming back in the full release of the game, so if you haven't yet, give the Demo a go, tell your friends, and have some fun with the current content which will be available for only 1 week more!
Speaking of progress... will it carry over to the Prologue? Will the Prologue carry over to the full version?
Yes! When you download the Prologue, while you will have lost access to the 3 characters mentioned above, you will retain your Skill Tree, materials and Soulstones. You will have to unlock the new characters and weapons, and when you do, those will carry over to the full version of the game as well!
But, will the Prologue become the full version then?
No. The Prologue is just a free version of the game where you can enjoy some new content and keep up with the game development, but, if you just want to wait for the full release and play it once it's ready, this is where it will be. We recommend you Wishlist the full game below to make sure you are notified once the full game is available!

We hope you are as excited to try the new content as we are for sharing it with you! We will keep updating the Prologue with fixes, and improvements, and will continuously share more and more details about the plans for the full game as time goes by!
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out here, in the Steam forums, in Discord, or anywhere you might like, we are here for you =)
Thank you very much for your attention,
Best wishes,
