It's been a big year for Spirit Island digital, with Horizons of Spirit Island launching in June and development of Jagged Earth well under way. We have been previewing new content on our live streams all the while, and we're ready to fully announce our plans for Jagged Earth!
Jagged Earth will be released as DLC/IAP for Spirit Island digital simultaneously on Steam, iOS, and Google Play. It will be a single purchase (or playable via subscription on mobile), but not all content & features will be available with the initial launch. More content & features will be released in phases (details below).
The price of Jagged Earth will be announced at a later time. However, our plan is that the initial price will be discounted. As more content is added, the price will increase until Jagged Earth is complete at its full price. The subscription price on mobile will be increasing with the initial launch of Jagged Earth, to reflect the large amount of new content included.
Purchase of full gameplay (core game or Horizons) is required in order to purchase & play Jagged Earth. Branch & Claw is not required.

Release Phases

No additional purchases will be required; when the game is updated with each phase, you will gain access to the new content with your existing purchase of Jagged Earth.
