Happy new year tamers!

2020 is shaping to be a very busy year for Temtem. We're very excited to share with you everything we have ready for the next coming months, but that news will have to wait a bit because today we need to talk about the Alpha and the upcoming Stress test.
The Alpha is reaching its end After 13 months of continued support and non-stop access to the Temtem Alpha, the time of farewell is coming really soon. As we work on moving forward with the public Early Access launch for Temtem we need to stop the Alpha access so we can work freely on improving the server and doing the final touches to get everything ready.

Alpha will close on Jan 9th @ 10am PST / 1pm EST / 7pm CET.

After this date, players won't be able to log in to the server.
Stress test dates and FAQ Just before launching publicly, we want to run a stress test to properly test everything out. The stress test will help us test the maximum capacity of our servers and will al... Read more

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone! The Christmas Event is once again live! If you haven't been around for this before, here's what you can expect:

Every once in a while you will hear the sound of jingle bells. Run outside and look for a gift! Two gifts are spawned per player, in a radius of about 40m from where you are standing. Run up and bash it open to receive your Christmas presents. They come in three sizes: small, medium, and large. If you have enough small presents stashed, you can "trade up" to a medium. If you choose to unwrap a present, the contents in each will vary. I won't blow the surprise here, but you'll find a mix of resources, weapons, and candy. Some players may receive coal for being absolutely worthless human beings.

A new Archipelago Island opens its doors: Kisiwa.

Kisiwa is the hilly cousin of Tucma, its main feature being the impassable Kilima Range that divides the island into two distinct halves. Hotter and dried than any of the other islands, Kisiwa features an unrivalled variety of landscapes. The eastern side has Vumbi and its famous dojo, as well as the wild Kusini Highlands beyond the Jino Gap, inhabited by a variety of  Neutral Temtem. The only viable ways to cross the island are the tunnels excavated by the tireless Kisiwans – Chini in the wild southern solitudes and Juu in the north, near Lake Moyo and the capital city of Uhuru. The western deserts are deceptive in appearance, for they are home to many species of Earth Temtem.

What's new As usual, we won't go deep here in terms of spoiling the new area, the new quests you'll find there or the new Temtem. Instead, we will talk a bit about the new features present in this patch, starting wit... Read more

First of all, check out our new shiny gameplay trailer!



As you have already guessed by the title of this update and the video, Temtem will be releasing on Early Access on January 21st!

Among lots of other stuff, the Early Access will feature ~50% of the story content, three different islands (each with its own unique biomes), co-op, player customization, breeding, luma hunting, competitive ruleset with pick&ban for battles...

Today we bring you a special update talking about one of our Breeder backers and their Temtem. But first, we haven't posted the definitive names for #035 and #036 so let's fix that.

Give a warm welcome to the community-named Temtem family to Orphyll and Nidrasil!
The first Breeder Temtem Back when we were creating the Temtem Kickstarter campaign, we decided we wanted to give the opportunity to create new Temtem to some of our backers and we tied that opportunity to the most expensive reward. We ended up filling all the spots available and that means we will have five Temtem families designed by our community!

The first breeder we want to talk about is Soma Ghost.
