Hi Everyone, The idea for Keeper’s Toll was born in May of 2022. Earlier that year, our core team had played Vampire Survivors, and we thought it would be fun to make a game inspired by VS, but focus on unique classes and progression, boss fights and deeper ARPG mechanics, and blend it all together with our love for the Dark Souls series. Fast forward nearly 2.5 years and we’re ready to release our finished game! Early Access has been a great experience, having players join our development process and provide seemingly endless amounts of feedback. Keeper’s Toll will be releasing on Monday, October 28, 2024, on Steam (Worldwide) and Nintendo Switch (Americas/Europe). We have chosen this day because that’s when Steam’s Scream Fest starts, and KT will be featured in Scream Fest. Check out the full release trailer below: [previewyoutube=9DickATRVEo;full][/previewyoutube] [h2]Pricing and Availability[/h2] KT will be priced at $6.99 USD on all platforms. Next Monday, 9/16, we will be offering a final 20% discount on Steam based on the current price ($4.99) before we raise the price to $6.99. So, if you want to pick it up at a lower rate, feel free as it’s unlikely the price will be that low again for quite some time. KT is also available for Pre-Order on the Nintendo eShop with a 20% off pre order discount, so if you wonder why the game is more expensive on Switch, it’s simply because the PC pricing has not caught up and we will be raising the price to $6.99 USD on September 23, when the upcoming weeklong sale has ended. Please understand if you buy and play the game now on Steam, what you are buying and playing is the Early Access version of the game, which lacks a big chunk of content as well as some fixes/polish that the upcoming 1.0 release will have. You will not be playing the 1.0 version until October 28. [h2]Launch Day[/h2] We will be updating the Steam Page on launch day with lots of new screenshots and the new trailer, and while we don’t have a specific time the release will go live, we are targeting early morning Pacific Standard Time. [h2]Save Data[/h2] Your save data should not have any issues transferring over from Early Access to the full release. More on this when the game is launched. [h2]Post Launch[/h2] Come launch day, we’ll remove our Early Access roadmap and discuss a bit of what’s to come for KT in the future. We are already working on new content while we continue to polish the 1.0 version of the game. [h2]Media/Marketing[/h2] If you are a streamer, blogger, journalist etc., or would like to contribute to helping promote KT in any way, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us. We would love to chat. [h2]DevLogs/Videos[/h2] We are going to be uploading a few more videos to our YouTube channel from now until launch. We are going to cover various topics, all related to Keeper’s Toll, so stop on by or check in from time to time to see the new content we post. https://www.youtube.com/@stingbotgames1315 As always, if anyone has any feedback, bugs to report, suggestions, etc. please don’t hestitate to reach out to us.
