Development Milestone for Necesse
In the vibrant landscape of early access gaming, few titles have captured the attention of players quite like Necesse. Developed by Fair Games, this top-down survival RPG has been a work in progress since its inception in 2019. While it may not hold the record for the longest-running early access project on Steam, it has certainly carved out a niche for itself, culminating in its recent announcement of a 1.0 launch during this year’s PC Gaming Show.
The 1.0 update signifies a pivotal moment for Necesse, as it reaches a feature-complete state aligned with Fair Games’ vision. Among the most notable enhancements is a comprehensive overhaul of the game world itself, introducing significant changes that promise to enrich the player experience.
One of the standout features of the update is the revamped balance and progression system. Players can now explore a new perk tree associated with the post-endgame Fallen Altar. This innovative addition allows players to modify Incursions—temporary endgame maps that present unique challenges. The culmination of these Incursions is the newly introduced Final Incursion, where players will face off against formidable new enemies and a climactic final boss after navigating through all 48 perks of the Fallen Altar.
In essence, the endgame of Necesse now boasts a definitive conclusion, enhancing the sense of achievement for dedicated players. Additionally, the update brings a treasure trove of new content, including:
- Four new secret weapons
- 350 new sound effects
- A vast array of craftable items, encompassing weapons, armor, equipment, and furniture
While the 1.0 update marks a significant milestone, it does not signal the end of development for Necesse. Fair Games has expressed a commitment to continue evolving the game, with plans to introduce further Incursion-related events, additional items, new enemies, and minibosses. The developers are also keen to respond to community feedback, ensuring that player desires are taken into account moving forward.
For those who have been patiently awaiting a fully rounded experience before diving into the world of Necesse, now is an opportune moment. Fair Games is offering a generous 50% launch discount until October 30, bringing the price down to .50 (£6.50). This limited-time offer provides an excellent opportunity for new players to explore the rich and engaging universe that Necesse has to offer.
