Hi everyone,

Our plan is to update our Roadmap if any major changes come up during Early Access. We fully expect that things will change as game development is never a straight line–it’s filled with twists and turns, but it also often includes cool surprises as the team develops features based directly on player feedback. We’ve lost track of how many changes have already been made to Stormgate based on what we’ve heard from our playtesters and we have no doubt this will continue throughout Early Access.

We’ve added a few notes below to clear up any questions you may have about this content rollout plan. Let’s dig in!

Once a tightly guarded secret known only to our closed beta testers, the Celestial Armada has finally been seen by PC gamers around the world after their PC Gaming Show debut!

Celestial Reveal Trailer

The Celestials are a race of highly technologically advanced interstellar travelers who have come to Earth to challenge the demonic Infernal Host for control over our planet–with humanity caught in the middle.

When commanding the Celestial Armada, you’ll lead a cosmic race of near-immortal angelic warriors armed with technology so advanced it’s indistinguishable from magic. Celestials revere and cherish Animus, believing that it holds the key to unraveling Creation's greatest mysteries.

Hello, everyone!

Tim Campbell here. We’ve reached an exciting point in Stormgate’s development where the team is making quick progress on many fronts and we have a lot to show you.

Since we founded Frost Giant and embarked on the journey of developing Stormgate, we’ve been committed to the idea that involving our community (you!) directly in the creation process would ultimately lead to a better game than we would be able to develop alone.

I have personally seen this theory proven out time and again during Stormgate’s first few years of development. Community feedback has helped shape core gameplay, competitive balance, map design, the relative priorities of a LOT of features, as well as the overall player experience.

As the team prepares for the upcoming release of our next closed beta test (codenamed Frigate), we’d like to share some insight into our design process as well as an early look at some of the progress we’ve made since our last playtes... Read more

Today, we’d like to introduce you to the new direction that we’re taking with Creep Camps in Stormgate–let’s call it Creeps 2.0.

WHAT ARE CREEP CAMPS AND WHY DO WE LOVE THEM? We’ll start with a definition, as many modern RTS games don’t have Creep Camps; they are a game mechanic that WarCraft III players are more likely to recognize. A Creep Camp is a group of neutral minions that our level designers can place on a map using our in-game editor to provide players with an optional challenge resulting in a reward. Creep Camps provide players with powerful incentives to leave home base and encourage more active play. In Stormgate’s case, that reward can vary from additional resources, to map vision, to a speed boost, or healing.

Each of Stormgate’s highly asymmetric factions also has a unique attribute that provides the player with an added incentive to control Creep Camps. Vanguard players, for example, can benefit from Unit Veterancy and earn valuable experience to le... Read more
