Tennessee-based developer Timothy Dwyer launched the novel modification map "Appalachia" in December through his "Indi game studio" Kaluga Studios. This map strives to depict the diverse regions of Appalachia, from the frosty north to the scorching south, in diverse biotopes. In addition, the map is intended to offer an expanded range of native wildlife and be less swamped by dinosaurs. Covering an impressive 90,000 square kilometers, the map is substantial and is expected to be up to 65% complete by July.
The mod developer caused a bit of a stir when Douglas Hurst, Wildcard's CEO, revealed on Linkedin that this will be the first "sponsor" mod map to be available immediately in addition to the launch of the new ASA.
