“We first introduced Draugen in 2013–maybe, looking back, a bit untimely–with a extremely optimistic launch date of 2015,” author and artistic director Ragnar Tørnquist (of The Longest Journey and The Secret World fame) mentioned at this time. “This obviously didn’t pan out quite as expected.”
It didn’t. However, Red Thread Games are actually assured that the first-person explore-o-mystery ’em up set in a 1920s Norwegian coastal group is now on monitor, and will launch in 2019. Why, they’ve even whipped collectively its first correct trailer to introduce it to the world. Here, come see the panorama and meet the chum who’ll accompany us.

“It’s not like the game’s been on ice since then, however,” Tørnquist mentioned in at this time’s announcement. “We’ve tinkered with it continuously, and we’ve rebooted the project on several occasions. The current version of Draugen is the best version of Draugen, and I’m personally relieved that we never got around to finishing any of the previous versions. They wouldn’t have been nearly as good.”
Tørnquist does add that Red Thread are nonetheless engaged on Kickstarter backer rewards for Dreamfall Chapters, saying “we will continue to do so until we’ve delivered on everything we promised back in 2013.”
