This week we’re excited to talk about updates that will be coming to a new build of Vagrus in the not-too-distant future, a feature that will make things easier for all vagri and their comitati – the addition of a bespoke interface to the Outpost mechanic. This has two components: the first is the warehouse, which allows players to store goods and equipment at the Outpost. The second is the statio, which lets vagri accommodate crew, mounts, and beasts of burden. Before we delve into the details, however, let’s take a trip down memory lane for some additional context.

The time has finally come to announce our upcoming expansion for Vagrus and go into a little detail about what we’ve been working on for the past seven months. It’s been a long, hard road, and while we’re slowly making our way to the finish line, we still have a great deal of testing to do, plus numerous final touches to iterate upon. It’s a terribly exciting time at Lost Pilgrims Studio, and it’s time to share at least some of it with those who made it possible: you, the players. The expansion’s store page is available for viewing and is ready to be wishlisted on Steam, GOG, and Epic.

This week’s post continues in the vein of teasers; we’re very excited to reveal just the right amount of information. Thus, we present to you a place you will be able to visit, one brimming with dread and decrepitude: the Dead Forest. Shrouded in perpetual darkness with a smattering of blackened, lifeless trees, the Dead Forest offers little save an eerie death to those unfortunate enough to discover its curse firsthand. That, however, does little to stop many an adventurer or vagrus from exploring its tenebrous glades – there is profit to be made here, and those in the service of the Empire or the Dragonlands are Tartaris-bent on pursuing it. As for what the place looks like? See it for yourself above.

Big news: we had a visitor!

Last week, we had the pleasure of meeting PeterJ, one of our long-time players. If you are present on our Discord server, you might know him – he’s quite active there whenever new builds are published for the game. Apart from family, friends – and of course participants at cons – he is the first living, breathing individual we've met in person who knows and plays Vagrus. Ever since our Fig campaign back in 2019, he has played around a whopping 1,000 hours! Very impressive if you ask us, and we are absolutely honored by his dedication. We are also grateful for his continued assistance with providing invaluable feedback on preview builds in particular.

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,

Are you ready for our Community Items?

Many of you might be familiar with Steam Trading Cards and other community items. Essentially, you can collect cards for playing games for which the feature is available. Complete sets of cards can be crafted into game badges that appear on your profile, earning you marketable items, such as profile backgrounds, emoticons, and coupons. They contribute to your Steam Level and are a fun way to show your love and dedication to the games you love.

Hello everyone,

A big event took place in our neck of the woods on 24th February: the Budapest Game Dev Day Academy, which is the largest conference for game developers in Hungary. Over 20 dev teams and studios showed up at the event, which also featured more than 30 presentations and panel discussions. The last Game Dev Day was held in 2020, and it was amazing to take part in one now, after three long years.

Happy International Women's Day from the team at Lost Pilgrims. Today, we're celebrating all the amazing women who enrich our lives and make Vagrus possible. Thank you for your strength, creativity, and passion!

- The Lost Pilgrims Team

Today we have the pleasure of welcoming one more to the Lost Pilgrims team, this time a Quality Assurance Tester – Bálint. Bálint has just finished his mandatory trial period, which means he has now become part of the team in full capacity. This comes at a crucial time as we are working hard on both porting Vagrus and producing our upcoming DLC.

Hey everyone,

Today we are releasing a large patch with features that we’ve been talking about for some time, most of which are a reiteration from the post we released about a public Beta weeks ago. With that Beta now over, you can now scroll down to see all of the details regarding our implementation of full controller support, UI and text zooming, improved initial game loading times, and much, much more. Alongside these, we have also implemented a new pop-up window for players to see what’s new when they load up the game, and a DLC catalog, which lets you see what content you already own, as shown below.
