Dual Universe Is On Its Way To Full Release With A Possible Partial Server Reset
After two years in Beta, Novaquark is just about ready to move on to the next phase of development for Dual Universe – full release.
“A game like Dual Universe is a never ending labor of love and ongoing development, but there is a point when you just need to assess if it is ready for a release. After close to two years of testing and numerous major additions to the game, we have decided to prepare the game for launch.”
The good news is that the team will not be performing a full reset on launch although they might be doing a partial reset instead. They’re currently looking into what parts of a player’s progress can be kept but rest assured that it will include core blueprints and any blueprints owned as the leader of an organization.
Novaquark has yet to announce an exact release date but development continues full speed on the first-person space sandbox MMORPG. In preparation for launch, they’re now focusing on squashing bugs, improving backend systems, and polishing the game. They’re also working on several new features including a power management system, more complex PvE missions, and a brand new feature that will allow players to their shops, services, and anything else of interest.
Also in development are Flotillas which will allow players to form temporary groups and alliances. “These will help in identifying friend from foe, assuming your foes haven’t already infiltrated your squad. This will improve many different aspects of group play ranging from fleet engagements, running convoys, piracy, and more,” said the devs.
