14 September: the release of ‘Tenebris: Terra incognita’ version 1.0!

Friends, September is finally here. And that means there are 14 days to go until the release of Tenebris: Terra Incognita. That’s just two weeks!

It’s been a long journey, and we ourselves are eagerly awaiting this momentous day.

If you haven’t bought the game yet or would like to treat your friends to a copy, we have a gift for you – a 25% discount during the first week of release.

Over this time, we’ve processed around a thousand reviews and suggestions for improving Tenebris, and many of your ideas have been taken on board and implemented.

We can now say with confidence that the Early Access launch was absolutely essential for such a large-scale tactical game with such a vast array of abilities and mechanics. As a reminder, in version 1.0, players will have access to 23 heroes with 23 talent trees.

That’s 414 passive and active abilities, not counting basic abilities, perks and skills that unlock over time. All in all — over 500! And, of course, for a small team like ours, polishing such a vast array of abilities without your help would have been extremely difficult! Thank you for helping us make the game better!

Please note that old save files will not be compatible with the new version of the game, 1.0, so if you decide to play now, please bear this in mind.

Some players may feel disappointed at having to start the game from scratch, so the decision to delete old save files requires an explanation. It is true that we do have the option to load old save files, but given the changes to core mechanics, abilities, character progression and other adjustments—including balance changes—critical errors will occur and the game will crash.

This will lead to crashes, the loss of save files and entire mechanics failing to work correctly. For example, a boss might fail to appear. To avoid all these unpleasant situations, we are forced to delete old save files.

But it’s not all bad news! Version 1.0 will introduce the option to fast-forward animations, which will significantly speed up replaying the game.

Thank you once again for your support throughout this journey. Your feedback, suggestions, streams and reviews of Tenebris have been a huge help to us!

Best regards, the Phantasmica Studios team.
