Human Head Studios has announced that after securing additional funding sources, it will be able to skip the Early Access phase for Rune: Ragnarok, and release it in its full glory. While the team hasn’t specified yet when the game will come out, it has confirmed that it will released in 2019.
Rune: Ragnarok is the sequel to the 17-year old Rune game and is set in a dangerous universe where gods, beasts, and the last remaining humans struggle to survive. The game promises to combine brutal melee combat with rich, Norse-inspired mythology, and will feature vast and dangerous lands, will support co-op, and will allow players to collect powerful equipment and harness rune powers.
Furthermore, Human Head Studios stated that the game will receive post-launch content, though it did not specify whether this new content will be free to everyone or will put behind a paywall in the form of future DLCs.

“Securing additional funding”
Oh dear we all know what that means these days.
Yep, looks like they got a beefy injection of Fortnite capital
Haha, EXACTLY! And I hope when all this crash and burn players never forget and black list these publishers/developers. I’m no fan of steam but what I cannot stand is this harping in the 30% cut. Sure you can afford to 8-12% cut when all your client is, basically a glorified download client. The epic store has no God Damn Features, but it has nothing but add to Cart and play. Because that share that epic is doing at the moment won’t last and is Desingenious.
Thank you for that and it was moot form the beginning. because i know a business cannot survive by doing that type of cut. It’s just fluff and under-handing the competition. Any business model that competes on price alone is bound to fail. But unless you run a business or knows business, they won’t understand this. It’s all about services/Extra Value Added services. And the Epic store has NONE.
They ain’t selling shait on their garbage store, need GMG help lol.
Good for them. They don’t even have to do early access because of this extra cash.
I get being against Epic’s practices, but why are people hating on devs for doing what makes the most sense for them. It’s best for the devs, the game, and the vast majority of people playing the game (because the majority won’t care about using an inferior launcher)
Everyone looks at their own interests, so devs looks at their interests, customers look at their interests. As a customer EGS does not provide anything better for me, it has the same prices and nonexistant services. And besides, I don’t support PC saving hypocrits that were the first who couldn’t hide their money enthusiasm jumping on the console train and spitting in PC gamers’ faces back then.
” I don’t support PC saving hypocrits that were the first to jump the console train and spit in PC gamers faces back then.”
if that doesn’t sound like the most autistic thing you ever heard folks then i don’t know what does.
I ‘ll tell you what does, your reply. Of course coming out of you couldn’t be a coincidence.
you’re the one throwing tantrums, how come i’m the autistic one here? are you stupid?
How much profit are they really making when people are boycotting their games because its Exclusive to epics POS Store? I’m betting a lot. More then they are willing to admit. I own this on steam already, and I can tell you right now, if it goes Epic and they remove it from steam, I want a refund. I will not support Epic.
I had the opportunity to test this in CBT several times and it was in a pretty good shape, they even delayed some tests when needed to polish some things, so it looks like they are taking good decisions.
