Version 1.0 is here
Hello Cowgirls and Cowboys,
the time has come.
Wild West Dynasty is shedding its Early Access skin. We are very excited to share with all of you what we have been working on over the last weeks and months.
And this not only includes loads of major as well as some minor changes to visuals, game mechanics and content based on your feedback that we collected.
We left no stone unturned, starting with a new story over completely fresh gameplay elements and radical changes to almost everything that you know from various Early Access updates.
In short: We believe this is basically a new game, deserving of the label ‚1.0‘. True to the Dynasty DNA, but still trying to walk its own path.
We'd like to thank all of you for your invaluable support, the constructive criticism and the ideas that helped us tremendously to make Wild West Dynasty what it is today!
But we are not done yet. Because no matter how hard you try, no matter how meticulously you plan: There is never enough time.
You can rest assured: We are not stopping. And we hope that you come on this exciting journey together with us. While we tried to make sure to eradicate all bugs, as you know, there is no 100% guarantee that we smashed them all to smithereens.
Depending on different playstyles and some improbabilities we are not able to foresee, within the sandbox play there might be a hiccup – or two. And sometimes it still feels a little rough around the edges. Most of the times that is intentional. Occasionally it is not. We will adress that and take care of it. Because over the next few days and weeks we are not only working on further content and enhancements for Wild West Dynasty.
We will keep an especially keen eye on your feedback. Because just like in the last few weeks leading up to the playtest and beyond, this game is not ours alone anymore. It is a co-operative effort between you and us.
So just like we did before, we are eager to listen to your feedback. If you encounter bugs: Talk to us and we will do everything in our power to fix it. Some of them might even be known already and adressed with the updates or hotfixes that will be coming tomorrow and the following days. If you are stuck somewhere: Talk to us and/or the community on Discord and we might be able to point you in the right direction.
Tell us what you like. And of course, tell us, what you don’t like. We cannot promise that we can change that immediately. But we will listen and evaluate, if we can accomodate your wishes.
We can't wait to hear your feedback and your stories from the all-new Wild West.

Roughly 24 hours remain
Hello fans of Wild West Dynasty,
you might be waiting for some important new announcements from gamescom.
But this might be equally important. ;)
While our colleagues from other game studios prepared their games to be shown at gamescom we continued to work on the most important milestone we had to reach yet with our game. In less than 24 hours Wild West Dynasty will shed its Early Access skin and with the biggest update yet will emerge as version 1.0.
We want to take the opportunity to thank you, the community, once again for all your support and the feedback, which helped to shape the game into what it is, when it launches tomorrow. We couldn't have done it without you.
And we hope that you'll enjoy the all-new Wild West Dynasty, when you step into this open world and start building your settlements.

Two more days
Hello craftspeople, hunters, cowgirls/cowboys and settlers,
the time has almost come. Just two more days until Wild West Dynasty leaves Early Access.
Two more days until you can settle in the American frontier, try to make a living and help people on the way.
It was a long journey to get where we are today. And just like for the main character in the story of Wild West Dynasty, it wasn't an easy one. And like him we had a lot of help and support. Especially from you, the community.
Your feedback, your criticism but also your praise helped us to focus on what is most important in the game: The fun of the players. And we are convinced that together with you and your help we achieved this goal.
We are very excited to invite you into our vision of the Wild West, where you are at the center of building, re-building and shaping the future of a vital part of America.
We can't wait to show you what we have been working on for the last few months, in which we challenged, revamped, enhanced, rebuilt and re-imagined every aspect of the game, from performance and visuals over gameplay mechanics to rewards for player actions - not to mention the new story that focuses on a new character and his experience in the frontier, fending for himself.
Only two more days. We cannot wait.
See you in the prairie!

Cooking keeps you healthy
Hello chef,
If you think, that baked beans and bacon are the pinncale of Wild West cuisine, you will be in for a suprise.
Because the wide variety of recipes that you explore and try to discover while you are cooking is much more than just a way to pass the time.
Every meal will benefit your health. From simple dishes who will refill a small portion of your health bar suffering from whatever harm you suffered up to more elaborate meals that will fill your health completely.
And if there is no campfire at hand, there is always the option to get some health back by indulging ingredients. Or feast on Agave plants whose healing abilities have been utilized by the indigenous for centuries.
And you don't have to wait long until you start cooking some top notch dishes: Wild West Dynasty will be leaving Early Access in only 3 days.
We can't wait to welcome you!

Your reputation is on the line
Hello Cowgirls and Cowboys,
the West might be lawless in certain areas, but that doesn't mean you can do whatever you want without having repercussions.
We introduced a multi-layered reputation system, which will impact the way you will experience Wild West Dynasty in a multitude of ways.
In every region you can explore, you will have a distinctive reputation score. That is influenced by a reputation you have to each and every NPC on the map.
So the more you trade within certain regions or help people the higher your reputation will be. The more you are liked, the more options will be available to you. And this will also include future love interests. Because if you act like a fool or cheat people out of their money or even attack them, it will be much harder to find a soulmate to start and raise a family with.
So think of what you are doing and how you treat the other settlers around you. Your life will not depend on it, but it could become distinctively different depending on your decisions.
We cannot wait to show you more. And you don't have to wait long: In less than 2 weeks we will leave Early Access.
What do you think of the reputation system?
Tell us here or join the discussion on Discord!
Talk to you soon.

Your West, Your Way
Hello Settlers,
With not even two weeks left, before Wild West Dynasty leaves Early Access, we want to take the opportunity to tell you a bit about the changes in how you can play the game.
Follow the story - or not.
Even though we are introducing a full new storyline with a new background to the main character, we are giving you the opportunity to do 'your thing' very early in the game.
Go exploring and see where it leads you. Build a settlement (or more) and start acquiring the settlers needed to build a self-sufficient community. Follow the side quests to learn more about the area, its inhabitants and to unlock blueprints, so you can craft more items. Go grinding for resources, so you can satisfy the needs of your community. Start managing resource streams and treks between your settlements. Or continue to follow the story. You decide what you want to do.
We tried to cater to different playstyles and give you the choice to do everything without any restrictions or just focus on certain elements without having to sacrifice anything.
We cannot wait to let you experience the all-new Wild West Dynasty when we leave Early Access on August 22nd.

Seasons come, seasons go
Hello adventure seekers,
while an eternal summer might be desirable in the real world (unless you are a fan of winter sports), when it comes to developing your settlements and taking care of your crops, different seasons are very important.
Not to mention the challenges presented to you by mere surviving in blistering heat or freezing cold.
And of course, the various beautiful vistas that come with the different weather situations that will change over time in the world of Wild West Dynasty.
We cannot wait to have you roam in the wild and explore the gorgeous locations during the various seasons.
Thankfully the wait is almost over, since the gates to Version 1.0 of Wild West Dynasty open in less then 3 weeks on August 22nd.
We'll see you there!
