- Meet GHOSTED + FOREWARNED News - 15 September 2026
Hey everyone, it's been a while! In our last post, we shared details about a new project that takes place within FOREWARNED's universe. This is still in active development, and we also have some exciting news regarding FOREWARNED itself. But first, an introduction...We’re helping publish GHOSTEDA close friend of ours has been working on their upcoming game, GHOSTED. We're helping with the publishing side to bring it towards launch. It's a lighter-hearted experience than FOREWARNED, but arguably more chaotic in its own right. We've had a lot of fun with it so far, and we think many of you will enjoy it too - procedurally generated environments, decent progression, and perhaps even a few FOREWARNED Easter Eggs. 👀 If you’d like to support us, we’d really appreciate you adding GHOSTED to your wishlist!What’s happening with FOREWARNED?We’re thrilled to share we have some exciting things in…

- FOREWARNED News & Future Projects - 15 October 2025
Hi everyone, FOREWARNED It's been a while! We're very humbled and grateful to those who have continued to check in, eager for news, and we appreciate everyone's patience during this time. Following FOREWARNED's 1.0 release, we wanted to do something beyond simply adding more of the same type of content we had already added throughout the game's two and half years of Early Access, as we didn't feel this would result in a lot of value to the game or long-term enjoyment for players. Instead, as mentioned in our last general development update, we experimented with several new gameplay mechanics, including changes to the main loop of relic acquiry, the way tombs are generated, the way players escape, how Mejai encounters work, and more. What we came to realize is, the further into these changes we went, the less the game felt like FOREWARNED. It began to feel like a different game entirely.…

- FOREWARNED - Halloween Event 2024 - 4 October 2024
Note to fellow archaeologists: The Mejai have been cursed (again) and need to be banished. Banish each Mejai during the the month of October to unlock the legendary Thoth Mask. The archaeological study (lobby) has been decorated for Halloween. FOREWARNED's 2022 and 2023 Halloween Events will also be available during this time for those who did not complete them in past years, so you can unlock the Anubis Mask and Horus Mask. This event will expire on November 1st, 2024 local time. General Development Update These past few months, we've been analyzing feedback on FOREWARNED's 1.0 release in terms of its strengths, fun factor, and replayability. We've been experimenting with new mechanics, and want to make sure they 100% "work" with the existing game and don't veer too far off the existing loop. When we're ready to introduce them, we'll announce them first in our Discord. Happy Halloween…
