Unforetold: Witchstone – Check Out Dev Update #15 ‘Shape Fate’

Spearhead Games, the team behind the upcoming sandbox RPG Unforetold: Witchstone, shared the latest Dev Update #15 titled “Shape Fate”. This is the last dev blog before the game goes into Early Access.

Whether you decide to follow Opportunities or do things your own way, you will affect changes to the world of Kalsundia as you interact with items, people and factions. How you interact with the many ingredients in our sandbox is constantly monitored and remembered. This record of most of your actions allows the game to punctuate key moments of your playthroughs with Milestones.

As the devs describe it, a Milestone appears on-screen after you’ve dealt with a key event, or killed multiple innocent civilians, or chased a faction out of a town, etc. It is a reminder of the decisions you’ve made as well as a trigger consequences for your actions. For example, don’t be surprised if many Kalsundians dislike you and some even want you dead for destroying a township.

Ultimately, the Milestones will chronicle adventure and spice things up on your path towards your chosen Goal. In Unforetold: Witchstone, you decide what Kalsundia should be like by the end of your adventure. Playing through the game a few times to see the different outcomes sounds like a great option as well.

“During Early Access, we will gradually be releasing game content, starting with 3 townships and a few dungeons on launch day. This initial content will take you to the end of “Act 1”. As you play the game and experience our non-linear narrative, we ask for your feedback on what you like or dislike, and where you can see your adventure progressing after “Act 1”. This will greatly help us adjust and adapt the narrative content coming down the line and ensure we don’t miss an obvious Milestone or Goal, or a fun Opportunity.

We really hope you hear from you when Unforetold: Witchstone releases in Early Access on January 25th, 2024!”
