WE HAPPY FEW RELEASE DATE V1.0 UPDATE
In an update on Steam, the dev team acknowledged that the pre-purchase asking price of $60, double what was originally asked, didn’t make players happy, especially since We Happy Few is technically still categorized as Early Access. “Discover the retrofuturistic city’s dark history as you play through the intertwined narratives of three quietly rebellious citizens of Wellington Wells, each with their own strengths and weaknesses, as they face their pasts, prepare for the future, and engage in activities that aren’t exactly status quo in the artificially enthused society,” states the press release. You’ll have to fight or blend in with the drug-addled inhabitants, most of whom don’t take kindly to people who won’t abide by their not-so-normal rules. In this alternative 1960s England, conformity is key. “ We Happy Few is the tale of a plucky bunch of moderately terrible people trying to escape from a lifetime of cheerful denial in the city of Wellington Wells. The first three hours of the game now feel like “a completely different experience now,” said Abbott, “and we think it’s much much better than it was… but it means that we need that extra time.” The game’s scope has been increased to include a full-length story campaign, three playable characters, and more than 250 unique encounters. So we went back to the drawing board and made a couple of big decisions: we brought forward a number of story moments, to get into the action faster, and also rebuilt the whole first island for Arthur.” “But we felt that the first two hours of Arthur’s story just didn’t live up to those moments, meaning that the game didn’t start as well as it should.
“There are these moments that are memorable, very funny, and super weird and we’re really excited to show you all,” said Sam Abbott, Producer for We Happy Few in a press release. We Happy Few is now content-complete, but Compulsion Games is taking more time to polish up the content following big improvements to the start of Arthur’s storyline.
Take Your Joy…or Don’t.Compulsion Games has released a dev update video revealing new details for dystopian survival horror game We Happy Few, including the reveal of a second playable character, Sally as something of a palliative to the unfortunate news of a release date delay. Wellington Wells is never quite like you remember it. While the citizens of Wellington Wells will always want to ensure that you’ve taken your Joy, the procedurally generated world will ensure that your experience with We Happy Few is different and unique. In We Happy Few, no two playthroughs are alike. As you hide, conform, or fight back as each of them, you will encounter dark humour, a spot of hope, and even some redemption along the way. They each have a unique storyline in which they interpret and react to the events around them in different ways. Play as three flawed characters who explore their own connections to the events surrounding the rebuilding of Wellington Wells. Come unveil its dark history, and discover how and why its residents came to be so beguilingly happy. Everything appears joyful in Wellington Wells, including its roads, its people, and its omnipresent television personality: Uncle Jack! But, it’s actually a world on the brink of collapse. Set in retrofuturistic 1960s England, you will find a city ravaged by war and rebuilt by delusionally happy people. You’ll have to fight or blend in with the drug-addled inhabitants, most of whom don’t take kindly to people who won’t abide by their not-so-normal rules.ĭiscover the retrofuturistic city’s dark history as you play through the intertwined narratives of three quietly rebellious citizens of Wellington Wells, each with their own strengths and weaknesses, as they face their pasts, prepare for the future, and engage in activities that aren’t exactly status quo in the artificially enthused society.
