Highguard Developers Share Plans for Single-Player Mode
Despite a controversial launch and lukewarm reception from players, the creators of Highguard are not giving up and are building ambitious plans.
The co-founders of Wildlight Entertainment studio in an interview with TheGamer reported that the team is considering a full-fledged single-player mode. Chad Grenier noted:
I hope we have the opportunity to continue telling the story in the game. And, selfishly speaking, we really want to see a single-player campaign someday.
The single-player campaign is expected to appear in about two years. Dusty Welch added that the official trailer for the mode could be one of the surprises of The Game Awards 2028:
Hopefully, in two years it will be like: “Did you see yesterday's TGA trailer? It's the announcement of the Highguard single-player campaign that we've all been waiting for so long”.
The studio is currently focused on stabilizing the game after release: although the peak number of players on Steam on launch day reached 97 thousand, a day later the maximum online was just over 19 thousand. The game is also facing a wave of negative reviews due to errors and optimization problems.
