The highly anticipated mixed reality tactical roguelite, Banners & Bastions, has officially locked in its full launch date for the Meta Quest platform. Developed by the team at Not Suspicious, known for titles like Airspace Defender and Tablecraft, this tabletop-inspired adventure blends strategic depth with immersive hand-tracking controls. The game will transition from its current early access phase to a complete version on December 15, a date confirmed during the recent UploadVR Winter Showcase.
This milestone 1.0 update promises a substantial infusion of new content designed to enrich the core gameplay loop. Players can look forward to deploying new hero units, each bringing unique special abilities to the fray. The challenges will intensify with the introduction of a new bestiary and a visually distinct autumn battlefield biome, expanding the environmental diversity. These additions build upon a consistent stream of improvements delivered throughout the game’s early access period.
The road to version 1.0 has been paved with meaningful updates. October saw the integration of traditional controller support, broadening accessibility. A significant content drop last month escalated the stakes by adding a formidable new dragon boss battle and introducing additional adversaries to overcome. That particular update also enriched strategic options with a new Minefield card for players and unveiled two dangerous enemy types: the ranged-attack Witch and the melee-focused Elite Swordsman.
At its heart, Banners & Bastions tasks players with defending their kingdom across procedurally generated maps, where each wave of enemies grows progressively more difficult. Strategic decisions are paramount, as resources can be invested to bolster the local economy or strengthen defensive fortifications. Commanding a versatile roster of troops, including spearmen, knights, and archers, players must adapt their tactics to survive the relentless onslaught. The game is available for purchase now in early access, with the full, feature-rich experience launching on December 15.
