For The King: Announced for Xbox One; Showcased at E3

for-the-king-mix-demo

IronOak Games had a fairly exciting time at E3, it would seem:

…we were down at E3 this past week showing off FTK to the press. We got some great feedback seeing new people play for the first time and made some great contacts. We were also recently announced for Xbox One during their E3 presentation. We’re honored to have been included in their Indie Showreel and it was super cool to see For The King on the big screen!

Note the announcement there: For The King was already coming to PC and PlayStation 4, but has now also been confirmed for Xbox One.

…our release date for console will happen sometime after our launch on PC. How much longer afterwards is hard to gauge, most likely we’ll aim for 6 months. For anyone interested in playing the console versions, we’ll be sending you an additional key for either XboxOne or PS4 (pending release) on top of your original PC key. This way you don’t have to choose between PC and Console. Before we ship we’ll send out a survey to gather your preference.

And how has production on the game been going?

We’re working hard towards getting the beta out shortly, hopefully in under a month’s time. We realize this is a tad later than we had planned, but a lot of the polish we’ve had to do for the various builds we’re sending out will be reflected in the beta, allowing for a smoother overall experience. In short, it’ll be worth the wait!

We’re focusing on Act II of the game which includes Boats, Krakens, and Cultists. The main objective is for each Act to feel unique and present different challenges and rewards to the player. We can’t wait to get your feedback during the beta.

This game is really turning into the little title that could, isn’t it?
