Clockwork Labs studio announced the launch of the second stage of early access of the MMORPG with elements of the BitCraft Online sandbox. This transition is accompanied by a final wipe, after which all community members will begin development in a completely updated game world on equal terms. The developers have prepared many changes, focusing on improving interaction between players and reworking the progression system.
The cost of the basic version of BitCraft Online along with the launch of the second stage of early access in Steam was reduced and now amounts to 950 rubles. However, for a limited time there is a temporary discount of 50%, allowing you to buy the game for 475 rubles. Let us remind you that after the full release the project will become free.
Main changes of the second phase of early access:
- A training system of almost a hundred tasks that consistently introduce users to the available professions, skills and settlement mechanics. Completing these quests now rewards not only cosmetic items, but also stat upgrades that were previously unlocked through other means.
- The experience curve and tool effectiveness scale have been adjusted to allow faster achievement of intermediate levels of development and faster overall gameplay dynamics.
- The empire system is now completely free and focuses on deep dives into logistics and diplomacy.
- Improvements have been made to settlements. Storage capacity has been increased, walk-in warehouses and exchange counters have been added, allowing the creation of closed stores for clan members.
- Passive crafting stations have received more slots, the number of which increases with the level of the settlement, making it easier to mass produce resources.
- Added translations into French, German, Spanish and Japanese. There is still no Russian.
BitCraft Online is a sandbox MMORPG set in a single, seamless world that focuses on exploration, construction, and social interaction. Players find themselves in the ancient lands of Starfell, creating settlements, mastering crafts and uniting into communities, influencing the development of the surrounding world. The atmosphere of this ever-changing space is complemented by musical accompaniment from Austin Wintory and Rachel Hardy.
