ZEDx High Level Roadmap
Take a look at what's coming up for ZEDx! This roadmap offers a snapshot of our progress, from features currently in development to concepts still being brainstormed. Expect updates as we continue to refine the details.
We’re targeting a December closed Beta with aggressive timelines to ensure a polished player experience. Seasonal rewards will feature resets and triggers that evolve based on feedback, while the marketplace will allow buying, selling, and potentially trading horses, augments, and more.
We're also partnering with an agency to overhaul the branding for ZEDx and ZED Picks, with thoughtful design to set us up for long-term success. The in-game economy remains a core focus, and we’re continuously testing and refining it to ensure it works seamlessly.
Stay tuned for more updates as we get closer to launch!
