• Elea is getting a new AppID! - 18 July 2019

  Hi everyone! Over the last year, Elea has changed quite a lot. We got through Early Access, released on Xbox and next week the PS4 version will launch. With the release of the PS4 version on July 25th, all the improvements Kyodai has made for the console versions will be implemented back into the Steam version. However, this means that current save games are no longer compatible with the new version of the game. To make sure noone loses their old save games, and everyone still gets to play the latest version, we've created a new AppID for Elea, which means there's a new store page and library listing for that version. After launch on the 25th, the store page for the old Elea will be hidden, and only the new version will be available for purchase. It will remaind available to play for everyone who owns it before then. So to recap: A new library listing and store page for Elea will launch…

• Patch v0.8 is live now! Sound updates + Memory Optimization - 3 July 2018

  Hey all! Today there's another update, it's time for v0.8! Huge audio update - Elea now features full 5.1 surround support (you need a 5.1 surround system to experience this) and better mastering for the sound mix (stereo and 5.1) Audio is streamed instead of cached in the memory all the time.

Your sprint will recharge once you move slower, so in practice, you can run almost all the time Some visual changes/updates (for example, the final scene has a new visual facelift) Some scripting updates/changes Smaller input icons L…

• Important save game announcement - 11 June 2018

  Hi all! Just a quick announcement about your saved files. We've got the next patch ready to go, but due to migrating the game to Unreal Engine 4.19 and Xbox certification, we had to make edits to the save system in the game. In the end, this means that saves made in the current version of the game will not work anymore once the update hits. Don't be afraid, though! We're going to give you an option to finish your game in the old version and also be able to play the game in the new version. Details will be shared once the update drops. For now, see ya! -Marten
