Here we are! It’s the ‘we’re not even close to really being done, but let’s slap a 1.0 on it’ update! Yeah, we’re coming in hot - but 1.0 is a milestone that will see changes to how we approach things moving forward.

For starters, you get the expected 1.0 features such as some achievements (more to come!), trading cards and steam backgrounds. Controller support has been improved since the IGN review (We’re sure they’d have given P4 a solid 3/10 had that been working better!).

Also, we'll be working hard to make sure all saves are backward compatible from 1.0 going forward, and improving the save system in general. Updates will generally be more frequent now, and due to our push for a console release, we’ll be bringing in people to help us that actually know what they are doing when it comes to making an open world on Unreal Engine 4 perform well (and these improvements will end up on the PC version, too).

But why, you are no doubt wondering, would we willingly come out of EA when we know it needs more time in the oven? It’s a fair question and here's the honest answer. We originally went into early access to raise the funds to finish the game without a publisher. We’re as indie as you get in that regard - 100% self funded - and every dime we have gotten through early access has gone directly into development of P4. We expanded the team, increased the scope of the project and things got out of control creating bigger and more stuff. All together too much to do in the time we had. We’re all POSTAL fans ourselves and therefore got carried away adding new features (even the act of adding all the voice options for the Dude was a bigger undertaking than we expected). So now we’re leaving early access to help raise more funds to put the finishing touches on the game, see our vision through, and get it onto console.

And so here starts our redemption arc for POSTAL 4. If there is one thing we’ve proven in the last 26 years, we're too passionate to know when to stop, so updates and improvements are on the way! Expect co-op, further performance improvements and new features in the months, and years to come.

THANKS for all your support and being part of the POSTAL family.
