Is there any news on the Banu Merchantman (BMM)?
TL;DRThe Banu Merchantman isn't in next year's release schedule; they hope to put people back on it in the second half of next year, but chances of it moving forward are slim for now.
It's not in the 2026 schedule at the moment in terms of releasing. I do hope though, fingers crossed, everything goes to plan, that we will start putting people back on it in the back half of 2026. We got quite far into whitebox. We showed the progress at CitizenCon. It's not moved an inch from where we last showed it.
That was quite a tough thing to show, because we wanted to be honest about it and show where we're up to with it, but also appreciate if we're still on stage going, look at the BMM, everyone's going to be like, yeah, it's coming, and it's like, I'm just trying to be honest. So I think, as John says, we're hoping to get artists and designers and the content team back on it next year, but it's not currently in the schedule for next year's release. But as we keep mentioning a lot, things change, but that's a big one. It's going to take a lot to do. So the chances of it moving forward are pretty slim right now.
