Hi everyone! Mr. Cosmogone here, back again to bring you the latest Lordbound news.
Today we have exciting stuff on the docket as we’ll be talking about our community roadmap until release!
Wait, did I just say release? As in RELEASE?
That’s right! Under the leadership of Raz and Kiria, the team has been hard at work behind the scenes, so much so that we can now confidently aim for a release around March 2025!
We even dropped a trailer to celebrate the occasion:
We hope that you’re as hyped as we are about this. Without further ado, let me show you what we have in store for the next few months.
August
Gardale and the Highcrown Mountains
September
The Tangled Moot and the southern part of the valley
October
Spooky places in the Valley
First Livestream: A walk through the regions of Highreach, Gardale and the Tangled Moot
November
Motte Malgorath and a brief history of Orcs
December
Garshakur and the orcish clans
January
History of the Druadach Valley and how it all fits in the pre-existing lore
February
Art Showcase! Join us for a look at our new items and spells, and what it took to make them
Second Livestream: A stroll through orcish territories and the wilds of the valley
March
With the release fast approaching, we’ll provide you with a more detailed list of what you can expect in the mod. Dungeons, spells, items and our revised playtime estimate (Spoiler alert, it’s only growing bigger)
Third Livestream: One last preview of what awaits you once you venture into the valley
More ModDB Blogposts: I will be your host through the rest of our tour of the Valley. We’ll explore each region, talking about development, its challenges, and the stories and lore of the Druadach Valley. Expect a new blogpost every month from now on.
Livestreams: Hosted by Neshkor and Kiria, the project leads old and new will take you through what we’ve built. Come and join us for an exclusive look at never before seen dungeons and vistas, and to hear Neshkor’s war stories of a time when Lordbound was young.
Character Spotlights: Later down the line, we’ll start posting short introductions to various important people of the valley, be they friend or foe. Stay tuned on Discord to know more.
That’s all for today. Next month we’ll be looking at war-torn Gardale, the Reachmen of the north, and the Dwemer legacy in the Druadach Valley.
Despite the release being in sight, we are, as always, open for recruitment. If you’re willing to help, please apply via our Volunteer page, or join us on Discord and send a DM to Kiria.
We are specifically looking for people with experience in:
Quest Design
Interior and Exterior Level Design
Living World Design
Visual Artists
More information about these roles is available on our Discord, in the recruitment channel.
Thank you and see you all next month!
