Hey everyone,

There's quite a bit happening at Lost Pilgrims, so let's take a look at what we've been up to and what's coming next!

Our Patreon Is Getting an Update

On November 16, our Patreon will get a refreshed layout and a more streamlined membership structure, with fewer, clearer tiers and new benefits. Some existing tiers will be retired, but current members can keep their memberships and existing benefits; only new sign-ups to those tiers will be closed. Our most popular tiers will remain largely the same, alongside entirely new membership options.

Players’ reactions to At the Heart of Ruin are coming in hard and fast, and we’re delighted to see how our community is interacting with the expansion, providing praise, feedback, and articulate criticism, as well as reporting the bugs they find. Apart from tackling these, we’ve already started planning what follows – more on that later – and tying up some loose ends.

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!

Hello everyone,

Fresh off of our expansion’s release exactly two weeks ago, we’re right back into bringing you an offer for Vagrus at the Steam Autumn Sale. Starting today, anyone looking to pick up the base game receives a whopping thirty-four percent discount on it, as well as on our patronage pack, and the original soundtrack.

Hello everyone,

It’s been quite the year since we started developing Sunfire and Moonshadow, our first expansion. Those of you who’ve been following us know that it is introducing a new vast region to explore with a swathe of new settlements, new enemies to conquer, new stories to be a part of, a large cast of characters, and new quests to complete through which you can make your mark on the continent of Xeryn. That’s not all, however, as the Bronze Desert introduces a central conflict involving three new factions – the Ahari, the Chimera Legion, and the Handjari. The expansion features content approaching half the size of the core game.

Hello everyone,

Recently we have talked about how we are absolutely dedicated to bringing Vagrus – The Riven Realms to as many platforms as possible. Back in November, we posted an update about our game being published on the Humble Bundle storefront. Then, in January, we announced the game’s publishing on Green Man Gaming. With that, only one unconquered PC store remained – one of the largest – until this day. Today, it is our pleasure to announce that Vagrus is now published on Epic Games!

Hello everyone,

As we have stated before, we are dedicated to bringing Vagrus – The Riven Realms to more game store platforms. Back in November, we posted an update about our game being published on the Humble Bundle storefront.

We went to London to exhibit Vagrus at AdventureX 2019 on the first weekend of November and it's time to talk a bit about all the amazing things that happened there. 

The two-day event was full of awesome speakers who gave talks about the aspects of narrative in video games, be it writing, design, methods of storytelling, or other intriguing subjects. Wish we had more time to attend these but the two of us very so busy talking to participants and showing off Vagrus that we could only watch a handful of speakers, taking turns. We did have a great time chatting with people though - the event was very cozy, intimate even: a lot of like- and open-minded people coming together for a common interest's sake.

Laurels All Around

In our endeavour to get Vagrus into the sights of as many cRPG lovers as we can, we applied for featured spots in a number of nearby game shows - successfully! Not only did we get invited to present Vagrus the game itself but our art design and developer pitch has been rewarded as well making it into the official selection of said shows (see above). That reminds us to bring to your attention the upcoming opportunities to meet us in person:

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!).
