Last Year becomes Forest Hills: The Last Year!
Read the original on Steam ↗We know it has been a long while since we last updated you all on the state of Last Year and the Unreal Engine 5 update. We would like to update you on our progress and what is the next step for the Last Year franchise.
During the development of our Unreal Engine 5 port, we decided to package the update with Chapter 2 as new a game, alongside a rebranding of "Last Year" to "Forest Hills: The Last Year." We wanted the game to go beyond East Side High and explore the mysterious town and it's connections to the Nightmare. The game will take place in the same universe while introducing new Fiends, Displaced (formerly Classmates), Maps, Classes, and Revamped Content!
The Fiends that will be introduced in the Forest Hills are The Warlock and The Dryad. Abigail will join the gang as the new Displaced. The new map will be The Cemetery.
For those attending PAX East this year, you will be able to see the Warlock in full action and the new Cemetery map at Booth #13085. Stop by, say Hi, and play a match with us!
Since Forest Hills is a sequel, this means there will be a new store page along with a price tag. The price tag is not concrete but it will be fairly priced with adjustments for other regions. We understand that this is not what everyone may have expected but, this decision was not taken lightly and was made in the best interest of making sure we can keep ourselves afloat while continuing to produce amazing content for the community!
If you're excited for this brand new start for the Last Year franchise, you can now wishlist Forest Hills: The Last Year on Steam!
