Mid May Update: New Achievements, Easter Eggs, Fire Safety, Final Ending

As I said in the last news post, the previous ending was temporary but very nearly final - the game now has a final ending. Use the cheat map bunker#cinematic to jump there directly.
A few players have requested more achievements for the game - so there are now two more! The first is for listening to recorders, and the second is for aligning the satellite the same as its real world counterpart in the final section of the game. I would like to thank everyone that contributed achievement ideas!

Since I also get complaints about adding achievements in Early Access, I have created a guide for getting collectables for those that want to 100% the game, but don't want to play it. I would like to be clear that any Early Access game (due to it being in development) is not suitable for those continually looking to 100% a game (e.g. achievement hunters).

It might be the staying-at-home thing getting to me, but I reprised my role as Liam Jones for some live action easter eggs embedded in the game - a total of 4. Keep a look out in the Arque office areas!

Arque's fire safety standards weren't quite up to standard, so work has been done to remedy that in their facilities throughout the game.
I would like to thank everyone that helped test this update, and everyone that has been following the project so far. It has been a pleasure to work on Act II for such a great community, and Estranged wouldn't be where it is today without you! This will likely be one of the last content updates for Act II. I am going to start organising the full release, and (as mentioning in the Early Access blurb on the Steam store page) transitioning the game from Early Access to a paid-for title on Steam. As I have said in the past, if you downloaded the game during Early Access, you will get to keep it forever, for free. I will communicate further when a release date has been decided.
