Release Date!

Hey Vessels,

Can we get a release date?



We've heard every variation of this question from our community, and we’re glad to finally be able to share that the game is launching on March 30th, 2023!

Watch a brand new trailer on our Youtube channel:



Thankfully, it’s not that long a wait. While we add the final touches to Ravenbound in the next month or so, we'd like to share some of the wins we had during Next Fest.

The Escapist had an early access look at our game, and we even piqued Asmongold's curiosity. This week, we also held Ravenbound’s first live community stream on Twitch, and you can catch the VOD here.

Finally, we put together an infographic to share some stats we gathered from the playable demo. And look at that, a total of 90,000 demo downloads!



Thank you all for your support and feedback.

We can’t wait to see you in Ávalt.

We’re part of Next Fest! Demo and More.

Greetings, Vessels

We know you’ve been waiting, and we’re happy to announce that as part of the Steam Next Fest event (6th Feb - 13th Feb), you’ll be able to play a demo of Ravenbound.

Ravenbound is a roguelite, open-world game where you play as the Vessels of an ancient power known as the Raven.

Together, you will face a threatening, beautiful world full of challenges in order to free the imprisoned Gods of Ávalt and rid the land of its curse. Each time a Vessel fails, players will be able to select a new character to try again, improving on the skills of the previous one.

As well as the demo, we will be airing a developer stream during the event. Join our resident combat expert, Jonas Wallin as we talk about boss fights, challenging mechanics and the enemies in Ravenbound.

Whether you’re a long term follower or curious traveller, we welcome everyone to try out Ravenbound. We can’t wait to hear your thoughts!
