Age of Darkness: Final Stand, the popular Early Access survival strategy game from PlaySide, is slowly approaching the release of version 1.0.

  2. Exile's Return is expected to debut this winter.
  3. Before that, a new update will be released, debuting on September 5.
  4. The patch will allow for, among other things, skipping of cutscenes and quick data loading after defeat.
  5. More interesting changes will appear in further patches. First of all, unit formations will finally be added to the game. In addition, the AI responsible for pathfinding on maps is to be heavily improved.

According to the plans outlined shortly after the early access debut, the final stage of the game's development is to include not only the campaign, but also co-op mode multiplayer. It seems that the developers are already finishing the campaign, so only co-op will soon stand in the way of releasing version 1.0.

Recall that Age of Darkness: Final Stand is available exclusively on PC. The production debuted in Early Access in October 2021. It was received warmly - on Steam 82% of all reviews praise the game ..

However, it is apparent that many players are annoyed by what they consider too slow a pace of development, as counting only the reviews issued in the last 30 days, only 55% of them are positive.
