The Best Is Yet To Come

Heads Will Roll

Hardcore survival RPG with non-linear story that lets you taste the life of a medieval soldier.

Hello! As all of you probably know, we're hard at work at our big story DLC and intend to release it somewhere around late February - mid March. The official announcement with more details and Steam page should come later this month. But new story chapters is not the only thing to look forward to. Together with the release of the DLC, the base game is going to receive another huge free update - 1.6. Here's just a glimpse of what's coming: 1. Scabbards and in-battle weapon swapping. 2. Roguelike mode (player's score at the end of each run is converted into gold that can be used to level up stats and purchase various equipment at the start of a new run, allowing you to start the game with highly customized character). 3. Ironman mode (a mode with permanent death and no ability to freely save\load). 4. Dedicated slots for gorgets and bracers (and also a lot more of them). 5. An obtainable chest, where player can store items while in camp. 6. Improved virtue mechanics and new dialogue interactions (for example, characters reacting to you being drunk). 7. New weapons with new mechanics, improvements and cahnges for some of the existing ones. 8. A lot of new items including new consumables and trinkets. 9. New and improved visual models for all female characters. 10. Some new quests and interactions. 11. Some changes to crossbows, new shield- and armor-breaking bolts. 12. Even more scavenge events. 13. A LOT of balance changes. And probably a lot more. All of this is coming to the base HWR game with patch 1.6 together with the release of the DLC. So, I guess this is it for today. If you want to get a glimpse of the new stuff - join our Discord, where I post a lot of work-in-progress shots of new items, abilities and characters. You can also ask me any questions there. https://discord.gg/6y2NjEpXWv And, of course, thanks a lot for playing Heads Will Roll. There's only two of us working on this game, but we're giving it all we've got!
