Harbingers,

It’s been a few months since our last SoE, but the updates haven’t stopped and today, we’re back to share the latest news, updates on ongoing work (did someone say controller support?), and our plans for version 1.0 of The Bloodline! So…

Welcome to our new edition of State of Eudros, your go-to summary for the latest news from the world of The Bloodline!


With the February and April updates, a large number of bug fixes and optimizations were introduced - but work continues daily! Last month, Milo shared the results of the "What's your The Bloodline Play Style?" survey with you, and we helped gather even more feedback from the discussion, aiming to support him in setting development priorities and better tailoring the experience for future updates.

Today, we have another form for you! Here[docs.google.com], you can submit your requests for new enchanted items - as long as they’re not weapons - and Milo will pick the most interesting ideas from your suggestions! 👀

As for the much-requested controller support, we’ve got good news! Milo is receiving development assistance from an external studio, and their main focus will be helping him implement full controller support. That means it’ll be coming faster, and it will be set up with complete controller integration: all windows, all actions, all gameplay will be fully controller supported. This also means that – hopefully - the game will be Steam Deck compatible without requiring any custom layouts! We’ll keep you posted on progress, but we can finally confirm: it’s actively in the works.

These past few months have come with their own set of challenges. Milo had to face a strange and random engine issue that was incredibly hard to identify and diagnose, making it extremely difficult (if not impossible) to work with the game map. Fortunately, he found a workaround and resolved the issue, allowing him to refocus on bug fixing and preparing for the upcoming Kingdom update, which is shaping up to be the most content-rich update yet!


Work on the next Kingdom update is well underway, and Lonland is coming along wonderfully. According to Milo, these frozen lands will feature the most beautiful locations so far, and a ton of new content.
The new guild arriving with Lonland will be his main focus for the next few weeks: called The Chapter, this paladin-themed guild is dedicated to preventing the spread of the Undead across Eudros, working closely with the Church of Arosa.

There will be plenty of new things to discover and experience in these icy lands, including an all-new themed weapon set. We’ve already shown you some of the concept art - but now, they're coming to life in their final form!


We’re slowly but surely approaching version 1.0 of The Bloodline, and we’d like to clear up a few doubts and share Milo’s vision for the release.
Version 1.0 of The Bloodline will be classified as a “Sandbox 1.0”. It will include all the core features originally planned for the game, and Miles wants to continue to update the game as often as he reasonably can with guilds, crafting types, companions, skills and – of course - bug fixes, QoL improvements, and optimizations. The scope of the game has grown and evolved with its success, so once we reach the core goal of The Bloodline (being a solid sandbox RPG), that will mark the soft 1.0 milestone.

Leaving Early Access is a big step, and certainly not a simple decision, but ultimately, it’s one made with the bigger picture in mind, balancing many different aspects and priorities. It will mark that the initial foundational goals of the game have been achieved - and the beginning of an exciting new journey, both for you, who have supported The Bloodline from the very beginning and made all of this possible, and for the new future Harbingers out there!


To stay in the loop with smaller and constant development updates, you could follow Miles on TikTok[www.tiktok.com] and X[x.com], where he posts regularly. If you want to chat directly with him, you can join the official Discord server[discord.gg], which is also the best place to share your suggestions and feedback.

The world of Eudros will continue to evolve, and we hope you're enjoying this adventure with us ⚔️
