Hey everyone,

As we have mentioned before, while we are working on the upcoming DLCs already, we would also like to expand Vagrus with smaller content drops – both the core game and the Expansion. The first of such additions comes in the form of this update, which adds the starting segments of a lengthy questline to all owners of Sunfire and Moonshadow. Without getting into spoilers, the quest deals with the Dreamwalker’s followers and will take you to places previously unseen. To start it, you have to have interacted with these strange fanatics several times and explored the Bronze Desert.

Hey everyone,

We come to you this week bearing good news: we’re drawing closer to another sizable content release for Vagrus, specifically for the Expansion Sunfire and Moonshadow, codename: Clandestine. 2024 is set to be a big year for Lost Pilgrims, which means both our art and writing teams are hard at work on two brand-new DLCs, but also additional content we are including as part of our November release of Sunfire and Moonshadow. If you’ve already got the expansion you needn’t worry, you’ll be able to enjoy the new story as part of the upcoming free update 1.160, Clandestine. And while we can’t give you an exact release date just yet, this first content drop is coming sooner than you think!

Hey everyone,

With the festive season now firmly behind us, we here at Lost Pilgrims Studio would like to wish all of you a prosperous 2024. We hope that you all feel as recharged and energetic about the new year as we do.

The release of the expansion Sunfire and Moonshadow and its accompanying Season Pass were our main highlights of 2023, yet in 2024, we have even bigger plans. Namely, the release of two DLCs: a companion DLC and a region DLC. Needless to say, if you’ve already bought the Season Pass, you needn’t do anything more than wait – we’re already hard at work on both pieces of content – and we can’t wait to share more information (and teasers, naturally!) about them as we draw closer to their release.

As we teased in our latest post, IGN has picked up our Official Release Date Trailer as an exclusive for the live show they hosted as part of Gamescom.

Watching our game trailer live on such a prestigious event was a blast, and now it is time to share it with all our players and followers!

Those of you who have played the game extensively surely know Deven, the great Imperial city that occupies vast caverns beneath the arid and hot Jagged Waste. It is a regular stop for many traders, wanderers, and vagri. Although the subterranean location is protected from the scorching sunlight of the surface, it is in turn enveloped in perpetual twilight only broken by the many braziers and luminous crystal clusters.

We have started almost every single project update with 'A lot has happened since our last update' but now the 'lot' of the past seems kind of tiny compared to the 'LOT' of today.

The Pandemic

Corona hit hard and unexpected. What we looked at with blissful ignorance and naivety in the early days turned our lives upside down in mere weeks.  Luckily, everyone from the team is safe and sound as of now, though being in the middle of the flu season we cannot be certain whether we've been exposed to the virus already or not. Either way, we  stay home to keep everyone around us safer.

It's been a long time since we posted an update about our social media numbers, so it is time to set that right.

We have twice as many followers on game portals - like Steam, GameJolt, and so on - as we did in Q1 this year, and another few hundred came even on top of that with GOG.com accepting Vagrus into their portfolio just recently (as a note: we only consider actual followers, and do not count people who put the game on their wishlist).

A lot has happened since our last project post where we looked back on 2018 as a sort of a year assessment.

Prologue

We finished the year with releasing the Prologue section of Vagrus just around Christmas. Our hopes were high and the results were... even better! Let's delve into the details.

We at Lost Pilgrims will always remember 2018 as the year when it all began to come together, the year when everything changed for us. It was the year when development on Vagrus got out of the preparation phase and into hardcore production.

Now that this crucial year is done and over with, we felt it would behoove us to recount how 2018 went for those of you interested (and for posterity!).

Gosh, what a year! Working on Vagrus has been super busy but very rewarding - in no small thanks to people like you, dear followers, whose contributions and feedback made a lot of things possible for us here at Lost Pilgrims. So let me thank you for everything and wish you very happy holidays on behalf of the whole team! Have fun, hang out with family and friends, and check out the Prologue of Vagrus!
