[2024] Matt's Community letter - Holiday Edition

​ Dear Community,

The end of 2024 is close, and I want to take the time to thank you all for your incredible support. Not only for all of the weeks, months, and years that you've been supporting us; but especially for sticking with us through 2024. Your continued passion for the game is an inspiration to us all on the game team.

We've had our highs and lows this year, and the feedback we get for each is invaluable for us so that we can continue to develop the game in a sustainable way for years to come. It's your feedback, your dedication, your passion, that is the heart of what makes our game special.

Looking ahead to 2025, I want to deepen our connection to you and improve our collaboration with you. This can only help to make Forge of Empires a better game moving forwards.

Our vision for the year ahead is:

"To deliver the most engaging and strategic empire-building experience, offering players a seamless user journey, deep gameplay mechanics, and lasting enjoyment."

This vision will guide everything that we implement for the year to come, and likely for the significant future. Our commitment for 2025 is to listen, learn, and evolve together; whether that be through new features, events, iterations on our existing feature set, quality of life improvements, or reworking our early game.

From all of us at Forge of Empires, we wish you a joyful holiday season and a fantastic New Year. Thank you for being an essential and continued part of our journey - and we can't wait for our future with you.

All the best,

Matt
