Angels Fall First

After a decade in Steam Early Access, Angels Fall First has shipped its 1.0 release. Developer [AFF]farseer credits both the sci-fi universe crafted by James Morris-King and the game's community as essential to reaching this point.

The team is candid about the state of the build: it is not bug-free, and further hotfixes are expected in the coming days. A full changelog has not yet been published but is promised shortly.

What changed

  • 1.0 release marks the end of the Early Access period
  • Two new maps added: an Incursion map and a Territories version of Darsalaam, a partially-built mega resort station under siege by USN forces
  • Stability fixes and map improvements contributed in part by community testing during final development
  • Base price unchanged — the developers opted to hold the existing price point
  • 10% launch discount running for ten days to mark the occasion

For players who have followed the project across its long Early Access run, 1.0 represents the intended destination of a game that set out to deliver large-scale combined-arms sci-fi combat — even if the road ahead still includes some patching.
