Development Roadmap

Dragon is currently in early alpha and we've got a long way to go to make Dragon the game it deserves to be. All features and plans listed here are subject to change, we may add or remove features as we learn more about the community's needs during our Early Access.

  • More monsters, wildlife, and fantasy races to populate the world
  • Quests, story lines, and lore
  • More and larger worlds to explore and conquer
  • Randomly generated worlds
  • Expanded combat and improved NPC AI
  • More destructible and intractable environments and objects
  • Additional breath weapons and magic
  • Updated graphics and physics
  • Improved sound and music
  • Awesome new dragon models. Play as different "species" of dragon
  • Additional RPG mechanics and customization options
  • Weather effects and natural disasters (volcanoes, tornadoes, etc.)
  • Expanded mod support
  • Additional languages and controller support

At this point we think Dragon will reach retail version 1.0 in nine to 24 months; depending on funding and the amount of content in the final game.

So Jim Sterling made a video of this. I'd love a game like this promises to be, but it's got quite a ways to go.

Will the dragon be able to attack castles or villages and face the humans in battle?. Also i once saw a quite bad web game with a nice concept, one guy was the dragon which was quite powerful and the rest of the server were knights who had to use crossbows and swords to kill the dragon, not a massively innovative idea anymore but still perfect for this type of situation.
Basically great work so far and if multiplayer is ever going to be a thing I think that's the type of thing you want to aim at.
