• Necrobarista launches July 22nd! - 15 July 2020

  We're absolutely thrilled to announce that Necrobarista is releasing for PC on July 22, 2020. The journey to release has been a long one, and we've had a lot of setbacks and false starts. But we're finally here, and we couldn't be more grateful for the support you've given us since we first announced Necrobarista in 2017. The game has gone through a huge number of reworks and tweaks to make it the best it can be, and it's turned into something we're really, really proud of.

• The December Post - 14 December 2019

  As the year rolls to a close, we're receiving many questions and comments about Necrobarista, and about when it'll be releasing. We're very deeply appreciative that you've stuck with us for so long, and this post will hopefully give you what you're after, as well as providing a general update on how we're holding up as a team and what you can expect in regards to post-launch content. It's important to note that for various complex reasons, we are unable to go into detail on certain things, but we'll do our best to be as frank and transparent as possible. Team Health Update Necrobarista has been in the works for a really, really long time. Route 59 Games has existed in one form or another since 2015, and the project now known as Necrobarista started development at the end of 2016. Additionally, when we first announced our August 2019 release window, we genuinely were very set on that. Ev…

• Pre-Launch Development Update - 24 September 2019

  Dearest friends, fans, and other interested parties, The finish line is in sight. Everyone at Route 59 is absolutely busting to release Necrobarista into the world, and—good news—we're almost certain that it'll be soon. Very soon, even. Lots of wheels are in motion, and this tram ain't stopping for nobody. First, though, here's the rundown of where we're at generally: Localization on all of the fourteen languages we're shipping in is on the cusp of being complete; only minor tweaks remain. Everyone involved in localization has worked incredibly hard and fast to get the job done, and we're both super impressed and very thankful for them. Most of us are currently focusing on diligently playtesting and addressing bugs and performance issues—as our screenshots and gameplay footage demonstrate, Necrobarista is a graphically complex game, and we're doing our best to ensure it looks great and…

• Necrobarista, the game about coffee, ghosts, and Australia, will be slightly delayed - 23 July 2019

  Necrobarista is a visual novel about serving coffee, meeting ghosts, and playing with knives in Australia. Jody, who is Australian and thus knows about these things, took a pre-release demo for a spin in late 2017 and came away impressed with its attention to detail in customers and backgrounds alike, which he said "makes Necrobarista feel like it's happening in a place with history." At the time it was expected to be out in late 2018 but that was ultimately pushed to August 8/9 of 2019. Alas, it's going to take slightly longer than that, as developer Route 59 announced today that it's being delayed to later in Q3—so, sometime before the end of September. "We understand that it's a little disappointing to see a delay this close to launch, but the game will be a whole lot better for it – promise," the studio wrote on Steam . "We'll share more detail…

• Necrobarista is being delayed until later in Q3! - 23 July 2019

We've had some unforeseen circumstances pop up and, as such, Necrobarista needs a little longer to percolate. At this point, we're still planning for a Q3 launch, so don't worry - you won't be waiting too much longer for the game! We're taking a little extra time to polish the game and, excitingly, that means we'll be launching with support for FOURTEEN languages: English, French (& Canadian French), Italian, German, Spanish, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Japanese, Korean, Russian, Turkish, Arabic, Brazilian Portuguese, and Dutch! We understand that it's a little disappointing to see a delay this close to launch, but the game will be a whole lot better for it - promise. We'll share more details about our release date as soon as we can, and rest a…

• Coffee-powered ghost story Necrobarista has a release date - 20 May 2019

  A couple of years ago at PAX Australia I had a chance to play a demo of Necrobarista, a visual novel about serving coffee, meeting ghosts, and playing with knives . The setting is a cafe called the Terminal, a magic coffee shop that serves both the living and the dead.  After five years of development, most of which I assume went into those slick animations as seen in the new trailer above, Necrobarista will finally be released this year, either on August 8 or August 9 depending which part of the world you're in (check your local version of its Steam page to find out for sure).  Necrobarista's cool art, bizarre story, and strong sense of place made it stand out back when I played that demo. Here's hoping the final thing lives up to it.

• Necrobarista serves up a steaming cup of urban fantasy in August - 16 May 2019

  I’d imagine that being cold and dead makes a hot cup of coffee sound like a fantastic idea, which is probably the force driving spirits to Necrobarista ‘s magical Melbourne coffee-shop. Developed by Route 59 Games and out on August 9th, it’s a modern-day visual novel tale of magic and myth set in a necromancer-run cafe frequented by the recently deceased and living alike. It’s all rather Neil Gaiman, give or take a little Aussie devil-may-care attitude, and wrapped up in some lovely anime-styled 3D art. Below, a new trailer that I’m not ashamed to admit has me excited to play it. (more…)
