Dear community,
Tormentis has been in Early Access for over 14 months now, and I'm very happy to have brought it this far together with you.
Even though we regularly update the roadmap in Discord, it's time to transparently and publicly present the rough schedule up to the 1.0 release so that all players can get an overview and see what the focus will be in the coming months.
In recent weeks, the internal schedule has been revised, and the planned transition from Early Access to the 1.0 release has been set for mid-2026.
Outlook Version 0.8.0
The next major update will include the overhaul of the league system. This topic was discussed in detail with the players in Discord. Key topics included: who plays with whom in a league (multi-league system), how long a league should last, and how time-consuming the league (or the game) can be to compete in the upper ranks.
The Bestiary will be implemented as a new game feature. The Bestiary will be a long-term grind in Tormentis and will provide the opportunity to passively improve units or even give them unique behavior patterns or special attacks. This will take the form of collectible (presumably non-tradable) tokens. These will also be found primarily in the League Shop.
Planned release date: before Christmas 2025
Outlook Version 0.9.0
This release will complete the controls in Tormentis and should offer full controller and Steam Deck support.
Furthermore, with this version at the latest, Tormentis should have a balanced weapon skill balance and the defense units in all level ranges should be adjusted to the strength of the heroes.
Planned release date: Q1 2026
Outlook for Release 1.0.0
The better the previous versions run, the more time I want to invest in fine-tuning them. If it doesn't fit into 0.9.0, the 2D editor mode will be implemented in this version.
A big request from the community is the ability to customize the hero's outfits. On the one hand, this includes specifically selecting the cosmetics for legendary items, but also introducing new cosmetic elements into the game that can be purchased during events or in the League Shop.
Planned release date: Mid-2026
Post-Release Outlook
There are other topics in the long-term roadmap, but these are planned after the 1.0 release. These include topics such as the 360° Hero Movement, the guild system & raid bosses, as well as interactive seasonal events and, of course, plenty of new units!
We continue to appreciate your feedback - YOU help us make Tormentis something truly special!
