The Banner Saga Post-funding Update #28

The latest post-funding update for The Banner Saga Kickstarter is a progress report with plenty of good info on the title's development, and includes a more detailed video.

The team has apparently been hard at work and included a new "pillage" endgame mode, new classes, new tutorials and a whole host of tweaks to combat (all of which will be carried over to the actual single-player game).

Meanwhile, here's a quote from the write-up, focusing on early Factions access:
Early access now even more accessible

For the holidays, we've put early access on sale! All backers already have access for free but this is a great opportunity to tell friends or anyone who'd be interested in playing over the holiday break. Check the website HERE!

Next year all kinds of things are going down. Keep an eye out for friend mode, AI fights, Tournaments and a short single-player campaign as we work towards completing the full Saga, all free and available early for backers to try.
