Joe Madureira ! Fansite

The Battle Chasers: Nightwar Documentary by Gameumentary is out now! The doc goes through the formation of  Airship Syndicate  and the development of the game based on Joe Madureira's classic Battle Chaser comic book series.

Airship Syndicate sent out a kickstarter update this week with a big announcement. The alpha-level kickstarter backers will be able to get their hands on the Battle Chasers: Nightwar alpha build on April 17, 2017 ! The beta will be released 6 to 8 weeks after the alpha. This weekend Airship Syndicate will be attending PAX East and showing off Battle Chasers: Nightwar at the THQNordic booth. Here's what they had to say about the build of the game attendees can play. The build will now feature gameplay of the town, world map, and an optional side-dungeon (they are small, 1-2 room experiences spread around the world) in addition to a full version of the game's first dungeon, the Iron Outpost. It also includes our finished and more fully-featured crafting system, a new-and-improved inventory UI, functional bestiary and dungeon codex, and some other cool stuff.

Joe Madureira fans have been dreaming for this day to come for the past 14 years... Battle Chasers is returning! Fans have pestered Joe to return to his creation for many years now and we've only seen bits and pieces here and there of our favourite characters (Battle Chasers Anthology, Comic Con Sketches of Monika, Gully, Knolan, Callibretto...). Joe has always said he wanted to come back to the series, but only when the time was right. It's a sigh of relief that he kept the promise because now is the time! Not only is he returning to the comic, but it's becoming a game by Airship Syndicate (made up of Ex-Vigil Games members) and possibly an animated series.

It's pretty amazing news since Joe is a huge fan of anime and animation which has inspired his own work as an artist. Here are some of the character concepts he has released. If you're a fan of anime or even just of Joe and LeSean you should definitely pledge to get this project funded. Who knows, it could inspire Joe to create a Battle Chasers Animated Series.
