- **added** — Game released into Early Access

##### **Windrose is out now in Early Access!**

Ahoy, captains! We are finally here, and honored to be on the same ship with all of you. We have just released the game into Early Access and, while it has certainly been a long journey, the most exciting part is that even more lies ahead! We hope you all enjoy playing the game as much as we enjoyed working on it.

Now a new chapter begins: charting the course to 1.0. We are absolutely sure that with your feedback and passion for Windrose we will be able to create something special for all the brave souls who hear the call of the sea! Have fun, and thank you!

P.S. One more thing: we are renaming our studio from Windrose Crew to Kraken Express. It just sounds cooler, otherwise, that’s still us.

_See you on the high seas!
