Over 1,000 backers have already supported us, and 85% of the campaign goal has been reached.
We feel it's incredible to have you all on board. Kickstarter is displaying us today as the most "Magic" title in the Games category, so we feel both extremely honored and amazingly happy. We want to reward you and all future backers with something really cool. This thing will be a Season Pass, meaning any backer who gets a Steam key for our game will receive all future game updates free of charge. Why should you bother?
In first Chernobylite, funded here on Kickstarter as well, we've been supporting the game for 5 years already, delivering significant and small game expansions, from tiny little things like weapon or gadget skins to massive megapatches including extra locations, quests, game modes and story chapters. Within the time from the game's initial release, we've increased the scale and scope of the Chernobylite content by more than 50%, and it was delivered all for free for our Kickstarter backers. The regular price of paid DLCs released for Chernobylite was more than 30 USD/EUR, and our backers have all of them.
So here we go again: If you support us with any pledge that rewards you with the Steam game key, all upcoming expansions of Chernobylite 2 will be yours free of charge. They will be included in your game as soon as they are released, whether one week or five years after the game's release.
Before, the Season Pass for Chernobylite 2 was among the highest tiers (above 2000 USD/EUR). Still, after many questions from you and our internal discussion, we decided that we need not only to honor all our backers the same way we did in 2019 but also to ask for your feedback when it comes to designing and testing them. So stay tuned when we release more info on the future expansions of the project. We have a lot of crazy ideas already validated, and we're sure they'll be cool for the players.
For the console versions, the DLCs will be handled differently because of technical limitations in the distribution of the game keys. We can't create an identical package right now for console keys, but we promise we'll deliver you free DLCs in another way when they are available (i.e., by providing a free key for every DLC that has already been released).
And if you are one of the backers who pledged for the highest tiers, which initially were the only ones, including the Season Pass, don't worry — we'll contact you directly to make your reward satisfying and exclusive enough with some extra items that will significantly extend your package.
If you still weren't sure, we hope now you know then why it's good to back us on Kickstarter, right? Go on, support us, and grab our Steam key!
