“Since we began closed alpha testing 10 months ago, Pagan Online has been constantly evolving with the help of our players” said Uros Banjesevic, Chief Creative Officer of Mad Head Games. “During our 4 month run in Early Access we have implemented massive changes and amazing new features and mechanics to deliver the best possible 1.0 experience at full launch. It is going to be, literally, a different game.”

We are excited to not only end the Early Access journey, but also to begin building what comes next.”
