EARTHLOCK 2 Reset: Building a Trilogy

Hey Voyagers,

It’s been a while since our last update, and we know you’ve been waiting for news. Let’s get to it.

Our Creative Director, Bendik, has an important message to share with you.

At Snowcastle Games, we’re committed to creating engaging and fun experiences for our players. When we began sharing our vision for EARTHLOCK 2 in 2024, your feedback indicated our vision for the game wasn't quite meeting your expectations, so we took one step back to understand how to improve that experience.

We know how important EARTHLOCK is to many of you and how much a huge part of our community enjoys RPGs, so to honor the original EARTHLOCK and deliver the sequel you deserve, we’ve determined that EARTHLOCK 2 must be a proper sequel, establishing the EARTHLOCK series as a true trilogy that meets your expectations.

This means we are reworking our original plans for EARTHLOCK 2 and resetting the development to create a trilogy of games that truly honors the EARTHLOCK universe. Now, this doesn’t mean the effort we’ve invested so far will go to waste. Much of the inspiration, system, and tools from EARTHLOCK 2 have been carried over to serve as the foundation for a new project called Lysward. The team is very excited about this new adventure in the EARTHLOCK world which we will share much more about in the weeks to come! Join the Discord server to join future playtests and betas.

We understand that this means a longer wait for the sequel you were expecting. However, we believe this change is necessary to deliver the best experience and a true continuation of the EARTHLOCK story. We want to make sure it's something we're all proud of.

We'll keep you updated on the progress of both Lysward and EARTHLOCK 2 as we move forward. And if you’re into survival games, make sure to wishlist Lysward now to know more about one of our next games!

Thanks for your continued support. 2025 will be a very important year for us and we appreciate you being with us on this journey.
