Dark, Witchy Action Game 1666: Amsterdam, Made by the Creator of Assassin's Creed, Is Releasing in Early Access Much Sooner than Expected
The early access build will cost $30 and include about 10 hours of gameplay as development continues.
- Panache Digital Games announced 1666: Amsterdam will launch in Early Access on Aug. 25 for PC via Steam and Epic Games Store, priced at $30.
- The title survived years of legal battles between Assassin's Creed creator Patrice Désilets and Ubisoft before being re-revealed earlier this summer in a trailer featuring a witch fighting enemies with magic in Amsterdam.
- Players control the witch Noa in 1666, a civilian named Aaron in 1999, and a modern-day descendant, with Aaron and Noa becoming cat familiars for each other across overlapping timelines.
- Patrice Désilets noted the early access release features about 10 hours of gameplay, while Panache Digital released a playable prologue showcasing the game's overlapping storylines and systems.
- Panache intends the full version to offer more than double the early access content, positioning 1666: Amsterdam as an ambitious multi-timeline narrative despite early impressions of awkward mechanics.
