The release of Conscript on PC is set for Q2 2021 with a previous closed beta in January 2021. The raised funding will help to improve different aspects of the game such as localization, programming, and the addition of new Art and musical content. Conscript is looking to be available in Spanish, French, German, Portuguese (Brazilian), Japanese, Russian and Russian languages. JD also declared that new melodic tracks created by New Resident Evil Save Room Music will be added to the game in addition to the current save room theme of the game.
The success of Conscript’s Kickstarter campaign is a true recognition of the work done by Jordan Mochi, a history student, and the game’s sole developer. For the past 3 years and in addition to his studies, Jordan has been developing Conscript on Game Baker’s engine.
The success of his final degree exams and the success of the fundraising campaign allow him to devote himself entirely to the finalization of the game. The Porting of Conscript to consoles is an objective which depends on the reception of the game and possible DLCs on PC.
