Development Update
Severance has now begun its transition toward Full Release on Steam.
Because of this, the next stage of development will focus less on adding major new content and more on getting the existing game into the best possible state for 1.0.
Expect work focused on:
Major system overhauls and reworks
UI improvements and touch-ups
Polishing existing mechanics
Bug fixes
General quality improvements
The goal is to get the game's foundations to a point where major reworks are no longer necessary after Full Release.
Once Severance reaches 1.0, development can shift much more heavily toward regular Major Content Updates, including new maps, ghosts, equipment and more.
Thank you for continuing to support Severance! 👻
