Development news and new content

Hello! The BETA has been out for a while now and we are happy to see that it has been a positive experience for our players! We will still be sending out more, so make sure to sign up for a key if you haven’t already.

One more person has joined the Iron Gate-team, Lisa who will dual as community manager and graphic artist.

New features and content


Many updates have been made since the last post, many of which are based on feedback from BETA-testers, and today we will look at a sample of all those updates:

New models for Artisan table and Windmill



The last post had a brief mention of the Artisan table and Windmill, and their models have now been added to the game!

New processor: Spinning wheel


Joining the crafting family is the spinning wheel. These are used to spin threads; not to be confused with princess sedatives.

New shield: Wooden tower shield


A wooden tower shield offers more protection than the Wood shield, and it stands out among the round shields.

New armor: Linen cape


Be the most stylish of your co-players by wearing this fiery red cape.

New locations: Shipwrecks


Shipwrecks have been scattered around the shores for you to discover.

New furniture: Lox and Deer rugs


Keep your houses warm and cosy with these decorative rugs.

New locations: Fuling villages


Fulings have banded together and built themselves little villages. It would be terrible if someone were to… raid them...

New enemy: Fuling Berserker


Watch out, you do not want to meet one of these unprepared. They also show up in fuling villages.

New event: Fuling

A mob of fulings might come at you when you least expect it. You’d better watch your back.

New material: Linen Thread

Crafted from Flax.
