✨
A huge thank you to all of you! ✨
With the release of
Episode 5, we’ve reached a very important milestone: the
end of B.E.S.T’s Early Access.
And thanks to you, this weekend has been incredible:
- The game was played by over 100 players simultaneously all weekend long
- Already more than 1,000 wishlists for B.E.S.T 2 in just a few days!
- And most importantly… a release with no major bugs
Your feedback has been overwhelmingly positive: you highlight the visual quality, the characters, and the challenges — and that motivates us so much.
We also know that some of you would like to see more narrative depth, better pacing, or longer and more detailed scenes. These insights are precious — they help us aim higher for what’s next.
What’s next?
To explain our vision more clearly, let’s take the example of
Captain Tsubasa ⚽.
Each arc ends with a big tournament… and then a new arc begins, with bigger stakes, new opponents, but always with continuity for the characters.
That’s exactly the idea with
B.E.S.T:
- Episode 5 marks the end of Early Access, but the narrative arc isn’t over yet.
- Episode 6 will bring this arc to a conclusion: it will serve both as an epilogue and an introduction to the next one.
- And B.E.S.T 2 will be that new arc: a direct continuation, but also designed so that new players can jump in and enjoy it.
Why your reviews matter so much
Your Steam reviews aren’t just feedback for us — they directly determine the game’s
visibility.
Right now, we’re sitting at around
80% “Very Positive” — and that’s thanks to you.
Keeping that rating is key for us to be able to bring you
Episode 6 and to prepare an even more ambitious
B.E.S.T 2.
If you enjoyed your experience,
please leave a review on Steam. It helps us tremendously and gets us closer to giving you that extra episode.
️ Putting the community at the heart of B.E.S.T 2
We want to involve the community
even more in the development of
B.E.S.T 2. Your opinions, wishes, and ideas will guide our choices so you get
the game you truly hope for.
And to start right now, here’s our first open question:
In Season 1, you took part in a football (soccer) tournament. For the next arc, what would you prefer?
- ⚽ Keep this type of sports events outside of the B.E.S.T competition?
- Try a different sport for a change of pace?
- Or focus solely on the B.E.S.T competition and leave the sports aside?
We can’t wait to read your answers and build the future
together.
Once again, thank you for all your support since the very beginning.
Episode 5 marks the end of one stage, but the story continues:
the B.E.S.T arc will conclude with Episode 6, and a new one will begin with
B.E.S.T 2.
