Altiros - Hi, I'm Peach!

Greetings from the Elteria Adventures team!
Today’s update contains major gameplay, graphical and interface upgrades to make the game prettier, more fun and more convenient to play. Let’s see what exact features are added into the mix:

GAMEPLAY UPGRADES:
  • The soul of the blade. Added the Soul Fusion mechanics. Build (or ask a friend for an access to) an object called Soul Fusion Altar, and you’ll be able to use it to put up to three different souls that you have in your inventory into an item of equipment, giving it secondary passive abilities. This works similarly to Reforge (just without the randomness), and absolutely can be combined with that mechanic AND item Rarity in order to create equipment that is absolutely monstrous in its power.


  • General Elterian studies. Added a new 0th chapter that teaches the player the basics of gameplay, as well as showcases the new and improved quest interface.



  • Item balance reevaluation. Massive rebalance of ALL in-game items, recipes, drop rates and drop tables.
  • More clouds. We just thought that it’d be nice to have more. You know, to jump between the islands.



GRAPHICAL UPGRADES:
  • Atmospheric visuals. New fog, atmosphere and sky effects to show the world of Elteria in its true, beautiful lights

  • Revamped landmasses. Revamped a large portion of the world, with lots of new and updated objects and textures to make the world feel even more alive and lush. Combine with the previous feature for maximum effect.





INTERFACE IMPROVEMENTS
  • Game menu updated. Added Controls rebinding into the Options menu. Also, added the ability to go back to the character selection screen, because some players need that.


  • Character screen relit. Improved the way the player character’s model is rendered in the character menu so that it stays consistent with the character’s surroundings.
  • Gathering interface improved. Improved the gathering interface so that it’s more pleasant and neat. It now also shows the resource you’re gathering, and the highlights are more noticeable.

  • Main menu music re-matched. Updated the music in the main menu.
  • Chat text’s volume lowered. The text in the chat is no longer bolded

BUG FIXES
  • Fixed the Tectonic Fault’s interaction with the camera rotation
  • Fixed the bug that caused placed workbenches to be unavailable without re-entering the game
  • Fixed the boss HP bar being stuck on the screen if the boss is dead or the player left their proximity
  • Fixed the bug that caused the game to overload the game if it’s minimized and then maximized while in the fullscreen mode
  • Fixed several crash issues

We hope these updates will make Elteria Adventures even more fun for you! You can discuss this update, as well as give your feedback directly to our development team on our Discord server!

And see you soon!

OUTRIDERS - SE Toby
Hello everyone, Toby Palm, Outriders Community Manager, from Square Enix here.

Ever since we first revealed Outriders earlier this year, fans have asked when they might be able to finally get their hands on the game. We can fully understand why - Outriders really comes to life when it’s played.

We can now confirm that Outriders will be officially releasing on February 02, 2021 as a complete package on Steam.

It had been our full intention to deliver Outriders to you within the Holiday 2020 season. COVID-19 has certainly affected our operations over the past months, but the teams have all worked extremely hard to adapt to changing circumstances. While the core game is now in a largely complete state, our testing operations were unfortunately among the most affected by the work-process-restructuring caused by the novel coronavirus. To that end, we need a bit more time to get it right and ensure that the Outriders experience will be as smooth and issue-free as it possibly can be when we launch. It is our utmost priority to give you the best and most complete Outriders experience possible, at all costs.

We are also very happy to share that Outriders will support a complete cross-play experience, letting you play the full game with your friends and other players, no matter what system they're on.

Global pre-orders across all platforms are now live and you can pick up Outriders here.

We would like to thank you for your support and we truly appreciate all the kind messages we receive every day. We can't wait for you to finally play Outriders in February.

Until then, stay safe!

Toby Palm, Outriders Community Manager, Square Enix

Stronghold HD (2012) - FireFlyNick

Available on Steam during the weeklong the Autumn Steam Game Fest, our new beta Stronghold: Warlords demo can be downloaded right now. That's right! Between October 7th and 13th players will be able to try out our latest build, a brand new mission from Warlords' Vietnam campaign starring the warlord Thuc Phan. After October 13th the demo will no longer be available, so move fast if you want this chance to play our upcoming 'castle sim' before launch and let us know what you think on Discord.

What better way is there to pass the time waiting for that demo to download, than by watching one of our handsome developers play through it for you? Follow our resident Videographer Aaron Hayden as he walks players through some of the new features, visuals and challenges offered by our latest Stronghold: Warlords demo. Expect new info, laughter and perhaps a few tears as Aaron attempts that precarious balance between achieving a perfect run and voicing a full mission walkthrough for the uninitiated.

Players can expect today's new footage and dev commentary to be followed by additional Feature Spotlight videos in the coming weeks and months. Addressing the most common questions about Warlords' gameplay on Discord and YouTube, such as planned A.I. improvements and the titular warlords system, these new videos will also feature more map sizes and community driven features.
