An interesting article over at newsarma.com has new information on where Joe Madureira is at with the future of Battle Chasers comics. Here is the article in full. Battle Chasers writer/artist Joe Madureira says that work on the long-delayed continuation of the series is still in development, but he has decided to enlist others to help him draw upcoming issues. "Realistically, the only way to get the books finished and into your hands any time soon is to recruit some highly talented individuals to help out," Madureira said. "I’ll still be working on the story of course, and drawing as many pages as I can manage. One of the reasons I haven’t let anyone take over the series in the last 20 years is because I always felt that if it were to continue, it had to be me. Or a team I had complete faith in, and I think I’ve found that team.

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.

The day is almost here! Battle Chasers: Nightwar is being released on October 3rd on Xbox One, Playstation 4 and PC with a Nintendo Switch release to follow. I backed the game on Kickstarter back in December of 2015 and have been enjoying playing the beta release on my MacBook Pro. I have to say, being a Joe Madureira fan it has been an amazing experience to dive back into the Battle Chasers universe that is so near and dear to Joe. I'm so happy that he had the opportunity to create this game for his fans. Other big news is that Udon is doing an art book for Battle Chasers: Nightwar and apparently it is almost complete! Here's a sneak peak of a few of the pages. Airship Syndicate also released the first of six videos featuring the playable characters in the game. First up, Knolan! Check it out below. Another video recently released was the opening cinematic by Powerhouse Animation (who did the recent Castlevania Anime on Netflix). Watch below! Here are some miscella...

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.
