The development of the final version of 171 is progressing very well! The entire team is dedicated to delivering a complete and polished experience for all players. We’ll be announcing important news and a release window soon.We’re heavily investing in expanding the content for the final version. Our goal is to deliver a full world inspired by the rich diversity of São Paulo: small towns, farms, open fields, major cities, mountains, beaches, and more. We’ve also expanded every other aspect of the game: a greater variety of characters – with different styles, behaviors, and accents to reflect greater diversity – more vehicles, and much more interactivity with the game world. We want this experience to feel brand new and far more immersive compared to the Alpha version.It’s worth highlighting that all the work done in the Alpha version laid the foundation for reaching this new stage. Creating the core systems of the game takes much more time and effort than expanding them. But once these systems are in place, adding and improving features becomes much faster. For example, creating the first vehicle system may take days or even weeks – but adding a second one can take just minutes after modeling. This logic applies to all other game systems.We’re also working on an engaging story mode that dives deep into the characters and their motivations, allowing players to truly immerse themselves in the world of 171.We know many of you are eager for news – and that makes us proud. Right now, our main focus is fully on completing the final version. That’s why Alpha updates and promotional content have been released less frequently, just like this update. However, our commitment to the project remains strong! We’re constantly expanding the team, bringing in new talent, and doubling down on our vision.

A new update came out, Patch 0.5.01
