GungHo Online Entertainment and Supertrick Games have announced that an offline version of the free-to-play action game LET IT DIE is currently in production. The news was shared in the latest LET IT DIE: INFERNO developer diary, where producer Uncle Death explained the decision. According to Uncle Death, the team has received player requests for an offline edition for years.
While no release window or detailed specifications were announced, one key feature has been confirmed: player data from the current online version will carry over. “It’s not starting from zero. The data you’ve been playing with won’t be lost,” Uncle Death noted.
More information will be shared at a later date.
We’ve been running the service for a very long time since it started—we’ve been running it for a long time, but we’ve gotten feedback from customers for a long time that they want an offline version. So I thought, ‘Maybe we should just go ahead and make an offline version.’ Uncle was taking a bath the other day and just thought of it. And we decided to start production.
As for the fine details, like when the offline version will be ready, we’ll let everyone know over time. Today is the announcement that production is decided… Actually, the LET IT DIE you’re playing now—you’re playing online, right? That data can be carried over to the offline version… It’s not starting from zero. The data you’ve been playing with won’t be lost.
LET IT DIE was first launched for PlayStation 4 in 2016 before coming to PC via Steam in 2018. The next entry, LET IT DIE: INFERNO, is set to launch on December 3 for PlayStation 5 and PC.
