- Patch 0.3.3 - Back from the dead - 21 July 2023
Greetings Clerics! Feels like forever since we last talked, doesn't it? We want to extend our heartfelt apologies for our unexpected and lengthy hiatus. When we paused updates on EVERSLAUGHT PC VR, we started focusing on a different endeavor, EVERSLAUGHT Invasion for the Oculus Quest. We broke this news last July and realize, in retrospect, that our announcement may have conveyed the wrong message to our PC VR community. Our intention was never to make anyone feel excluded or undervalued, and we truly regret if we gave off that vibe. Your voices of dissatisfaction were loud, clear, and absolutely justified. We've taken them to heart, and been working behind the scenes to get things back on track. Our goal is to mend the broken trust and reignite your passion for EVERSLAUGHT. So, let's move forward with a fresh update - welcome to Patch 0.3.3, or as we like to call it, "Back from the Dea…
- EVERSLAUGHT Invasion announced! - 23 August 2022
First off: What’s happening with EVERSLAUGHT? In August of last year we launched EVERSLAUGHT into Early Access and we were blown away by its positive reception. An amazing community has formed since then for which we were and still are very grateful. We’re super excited that so many of you stand behind our vision of bringing an action packed slaughter fest to Virtual Reality, a platform that we are so passionate about. You have motivated us to push our limits, and a couple of months after launch we were able to bring you our first big content update, which you thoroughly enjoyed. Ever since then we’ve been silent. But silence doesn't mean things weren’t brewing in our development kitchen… We’ve been hard at it folks, been expanding our amazing team and improving our skills every day. We had the fortunate opportunity to partner up with Fast Travel Games and Meta to create EVERSLAUGHT Inv…
