Dark Heroes DLC survey result and release plans!

Rogue Empire · published 17 May 2021, 13:18 UTC

Ok guys the survey is closed! At some point it was a virtual tie but over the last days the option to release the DLC earlier prevailed:

  • Launch the DLC only content as soon as possible and put the new game mode further down the line 109 votes (53.4 %)
  • Launch everything as a package 95 votes (46.6 %)

Now for some of you that were worried releasing the DLC sooner would hinder the game I think I can use this outcome to focus marketing (and development) on the new game mode and give it a visibility boost. Any contacts with decent sized content creators would be very much appreciated!

Now when will the DLC be released then!?

My current goal is for the week of the 14th to the 21 of June. Why? Many reasons, among them: time to wrap things up, time to market a little more and avoid E3 and other big events.

What will be the price?

I am considering a price range from 5 to 7 USD. Leaning more towards the later. Please don't be shy and comment about this.

Extra news

One thing that I will be introducing is a level squish. What this means is that there will be fewer levels but you will get an ability on every level instead of every 2 levels. This might alter save games so consider wrapping your games before the release!

I am currently testing this on the game's twitch channel from time to time, so feel free to hop in (and consider tossing a follow <3).

Hope you all have an excellent week! Looking forward to your comments!
