One Lonely Outpost is officially out on console! 🥳
about 1 year ago – Thu, Mar 06, 2025 at 09:03:11 AM

To our incredible community,

We know that it has been a long and bumpy road and we want to thank you so very much for your incredible support and patience. This final major milestone has been our top priority and we are so excited to to finally have the game available on console!

When will I receive my key?
After the game launches on each platform, you will receive an email with your game key. If you don't receive an email, you can login to your BackerKit account and get your key that way.

What if I don't receive my key and can't find it in BackerKit?
If all else fails and you don't see your key, please reach out to [email protected] for assistance. Make sure to provide your backer email, name, and tier/amount in the email. Please note it may take 2-3 business days to receive a response so that we can confirm information and assist.

What consoles are launching?
Nintendo Switch, Xbox X/S, Xbox One, and PS5

Why is PS4 not listed?
Unfortunately, we won't be releasing on the PS4. I know this is likely disheartening for those who backed for a PS4 copy, so please reach out to the email above to choose what platform you would like to get a key for instead. You are free to select a key from any platform.

⚠️ If you selected Switch or Playstation ⚠️
Since both Switch and Playstation keys are region specific, you will receive an email with a google form to fill out to select your region. In order to receive your key, you must fill this form out so we can ensure you get the correct region key!

Does this mean PC is in 1.0?
Yes! With the conclusion of the story and the game's arrival on console, the PC version has also officially launched into 1.0 and is no longer an Early Access title. If you haven't played yet - now is a great time to dive in and get the full experience?

What about other backer rewards/unlocks?
We unfortunately are not able to add all of the original offerings from when the Kickstarter was done. The game itself changed so much that many things were simply no longer possible. Everything that could be completed will be going out alongside the console launch today.

The game isn't available yet for me - when will it be up?
Each region releases independently and we have very little control over when it will officially be live. If it isn't yet, you can expect it to be live before the end of the day!

Thank you again for hanging with us and we hope you enjoy your time in One Lonely Outpost!

The time has come at last

The Act II Update + A Quick Note on Consoles
over 1 year ago – Wed, Dec 18, 2024 at 04:40:38 PM

To our incredible community,

First, we want to thank you for your incredible support and patience. Your feedback through our Discord and Steam Discussion boards has been invaluable in shaping the game and guiding our development throughout Early Access. We know we’ve been quiet as a dev team, but we’ve been hard at work crafting something truly special for you.

We’re excited to celebrate the release of the Act II Update!

⚠️ It is recommended that you start a new save with this update. ⚠️

This marks a monumental milestone in the game’s journey, bringing a wealth of new content, features, and improvements. From new characters and quests to new systems and mechanics, this update is packed with exciting additions.

But this update isn’t just about expanding the world — it’s about bringing your feedback to life and ensuring an experience that’s both exciting and rewarding. Whether it’s fixing lingering bugs, adding game-changing systems like marriage, teleportation, and gene-splicing, or introducing exciting new areas like Harlow Wilds and Crystal Forest, we’ve worked tirelessly to deliver Act II to One Lonely Outpost.

Here’s everything you need to know about Act II:

• 5 New Characters, Landers, and Marriage! Meet and recruit 5 new characters, each with unique storylines and quests. Propose to one of the 9 eligible NPCs and celebrate with a wedding cutscene!
• 15+ New Quests to advance the story, unlock new features, expand your colony, and deepen relationships.
• 2 Stunning New Maps, New Resources & Teleportation: Explore the resource-rich Harlow Wilds and the beautiful Crystal Forest and unlock the ability to teleport across the map.
• Seasonal Overhaul and Dynamic Weather Systems: You can now experience FULL SEASONS! We have introduced dynamic weather, fully seasonal crops, and visually updated the whole world for each season! It’s important to note that crops now ONLY grow in their proper seasons; planting out-of-season causes withering!
• Gene Splicing and Updated Mechanics: You can now create 5 new and unique crops that are only available through gene-splicing! We can’t wait for you to discover the vast amount of combinations possible as you unlock these new crop seeds. Each one has its own rarity - who will discover the LEGENDARY grade crop first? We have also added new ways to upgrade your Omnitool!
• New Festival and Minigame to bring life to your colony. Celebrate Colony Founding Day with new NPC interactions, decor, and even fireworks! Learn a new way to harvest and grow crops outside of their season with the new tending minigame.
• Steam Enhancements: Though they may seem small - their value is not! Cloud saves, trading cards, and achievements are now live!
• Polished UI, Quality-of-Life Improvements, and Bug Fixes to create a smoother experience overall.

But that’s just the start! To see everything we’ve been working on, check out the full patch notes on the Steam page - they are a doozy!

What about consoles?
Console porting has officially kicked off and all of the builds are currently in progress!!
Although we don't have a date to share yet, we are hard at work getting each console build finished and ready to release. We'll have more information after the new year and get through a bunch more of the work needed to get the consoles to our amazing backers and community.

It's been a crazy year and we look forward to seeing you all in the new year!
Again, thank you for your patience and the active feedback you have been providing us in our Discord through bug reports and open discussions. Your feedback during Early Access has really driven the changes and improvements in the Act II Update alongside our vision and story for One Lonely Outpost.

Join us in our Discord and provide any feedback you may have as you dive into the new content! This is the best place to help keep us organized with Bug Reports and player feedback about the game.

The time has finally come - check out the roadmap update!

Q3 2024

The countdown has begun to the next major content drop which includes a ton of new content! There are many things in the works to be completed in the upcoming months before it is released, but here are a few of the key additions you will see at your doorstop in Q3.

- Seasons
- Weddings
- New Map Locations
- OmniTool & Colony Upgrades
- New Festival
- New Minigames

Q4 2024

Although the fourth quarter may feel a ways away yet, it's a lot closer than you might think. We know many of you have been itching for an answer on console release and I'm excited to finally share some more solidified information on it!

Q4 will be a big quarter for the game as localization and console porting will officially begin. That means the game will be heading very quickly to a 1.0 launch around that time. 🎉

This doesn't mean for sure that consoles will be launched in the fourth quarter as porting and approval can take some time, but we will definitely be keeping you updated with official launch dates as soon as we have them!

Until next time...

FAQs: Console & 1.0
about 2 years ago – Fri, Mar 29, 2024 at 10:37:25 AM

Questions about consoles and 1.0 answered -  more information will come down the line.

Why isn’t Early Access available on consoles?
Unfortunately due to the way console publishing works, they do not support Early Access titles. In order to release to consoles, the game has to be considered complete and in what is called “full release” or 1.0.

When will the game reach “full release” or 1.0?
As much as we wish we had a definitive answer here, our current priority is completing the game’s content and ensuring that it is a fun and bug-free experience for everyone. We will be providing roadmaps and updates as the game is developed and the moment we lock in a potential date we will let you know!

When will it come to consoles? (Switch, PS, Xbox)
Console versions of the game won’t be released until after the game reaches “full release” or 1.0. Porting games to the different consoles and getting them published can take some time, but the moment we have a good idea on the timeline, we will be sure to share it with you!

Can I change my selected copy from one type to another? (Ex: Switch to Steam)
Yes! Please send an email to [email protected] with the email you used to back it, your backer number, name, and what you wish to change it to. From there we will begin the process of making that change. Since distribution is set up through BackerKit, it can take up to two weeks to make this change so please be patient with us. This can only be changed once so be 100% certain this is what you want before sending in your request.

My question isn’t answered here - where is the best place to get an answer?
The quickest way to get in contact with the team is through our Discord!

Until next time...
