The game is available on Steam, so. As far as I'm aware the proper release of the game is scheduled for about 6 months from now, which should give them plenty of time to get it running smoothly. Now, after the game has been handed through several game companies, it's been picked up and finally released in early access by a young game company who I think has been doing an amazing job so far! They interact with the community (actually the first game company I have seen with such a level of enthusiasm and involvement in the community!) and work around the clock to fix bugs and make changes the community has suggested to the game. The characters are inspiring and easy to empathize with, not to mention incredibly interesting!Ībout 2-3 years ago there was an announcement made that the book series would be turned in a game, an mmorpg set in the Otherland world, acting as a sort of sequel to the series. These books are amazing, really well written and with a unique and intriguing world. Years and years ago I read a book series called Otherland, written by Tad Williams.
