Ceres Games will be heading to Gamescom and have some new screenshots to show off from Realms Beyond.
More information.
Realms Beyond - Going to Gamescom & New Screenshots
- Thread starter Silver
- Start date
Ceres mentioned this last month on their forums. Their hope is to find some more potential backers for the Kickstarter which I think they're planning in the near future (possibly this Fall). I hope it works out for them. I'm definitely going to back and I'm others here and Codexers will too. But I hope they don't set the goal too high.

This is the game I've been waiting for since ToEE ( DnD turn-based top down RPG!). I'm going to back too.

While nice shadows are a plus for myself they hardly define the game. However - there is so much unknown about this game I can't really come to an informed decision yet. It might be great it might not.
So this game is still years off from being released then? Bummer.
Though I'll still back it when it launches.

Perhaps. At least they apparently have a playable alpha build now so they're already further along than a lot of Kickstarter games. It's probably mainly combat that they're been working on though so I'm sure there's still lots of work to do. However, they already have a lot of assets finished since they acquired all that was done for Chaos Chronicles, so that should save some time. I guess we'll wait until the KS to see the estimated release date. Of course, if we go by the typical KS RPG we should probably add a couple years to the estimate
Hobgoblin did say that their hope was to continuously update the game with new features and content even after release. Probably both smaller free updates and some large expansions, too if there's interest. He actually said they'd like to support it like this for years.
Wait a minute I thought the assets for Chaos Chronicles was made into Demons Age.

That's if it doesn't get delayed or something happens during development.
There was a legal dispute about some of the asset reuse, which is why Demons Age vanished from Steam shortly after release.
Thanks and nothing was lost as that game was an abomination. I'm guessing the developer of Realms Beyond Hobgoblin was the actual buyer, and owner then?
Anyway I still seethe in rage over how Chaos Chronicles was cancelled.
I don't know if they bought them, but Ceres Games say they own all the assets and source code etc from Chaos Chronicles. Hobgoblin posted about it here:

Screens look fantastic, but I hope combat will be a bit faster/more bombastic towards release.
Anyway, where do I have to throw the monies?

Yeah, I think they received a lot of feedback some of the combat animations are too slow.
I would be interested in backing when they finally launch the KS as well.
BTW, the dog in that second screenshot is surprisingly detailed (so cute <3)

Looks interesting.
