WE LIVE, AGAIN!We're happy to announce that Iron Blight will be releasing on: August 10th 2026 Thank you for all the support and patience. See you there!
- Regarding The Release Date - 1 March 2026
We’ve realized that, after the Next Fest feedback, the current release date doesn't leave enough time to fully finish the game to the standard we want. To make sure you get a polished game, we're delaying the release by about 1–2 months. During this time, we'll be focusing on:Fixing bugs and reducing general jankyness that have been pointed out by the feedbackReconsidering and refining some gameplay mechanics to make the game more fun and balancedAdding new sections to the levels to improve the flow and pacingAdding more enemy types and weapons to make the combat less repetitiveWe know delays aren't ideal, but our priority is to release a finished and enjoyable game, not something rushed. We appreciate your patience and support, and hope to see you at the finish line!
