Today we have a short and sweet video for you, in the form of our first 'Teaser' for the 'Making Of Stronghold: Warlords' documentary! Available at launch as part of the Stronghold: Warlords - Special Edition, this feature-length documentary takes a look behind the scenes with over two years of game development at Firefly Studios. Charting the course of Warlords' development from production to reveal and eventually release, Firefly's very own Aaron Hayden takes viewers through each aspect of game production.



Unpacking the complex process of creating a modern strategy/sim hybrid on PC, the documentary is designed to provide insight into these unique genres for those curious about their creation. This teaser provides a glimpse of our concept, writing and research for the game. These building blocks form the basis of our design for a new Stronghold title and Warlords' new setting provided fertile ground for both our gameplay and historical goals!



Stronghold: Warlords - Special Edition will be available at launch on Steam for $49.99, £34.99 and €39.99, with the base game also available for $39.99, £29.99 and €34.99.

Hello everyball!

As you can see, we finally have news for you regarding the CrossCode post-game DLC!
Not only do we have a trailer for you, there's also a release date!

The post-game DLC CrossCode: A New Home
will release for Mac & PC on February 26, 2021!
The release for consoles will follow this summer!

You can already wishlist the DLC on Steam!

Here a list of things you can expect:


An extended Rhombus Square that even includes a beach now!


The new area "Azure Archipelago" - ready to be explored!


Finally completing the raid!


The new Ku'lero Temple - probably the biggest dungeon of the whole game.


Several new quests all around CrossWorlds - you might even end up on a highway!


An extension to the main plot - learn more about how things continue for Lea and the others.

Of course, this DLC also comes with new, exciting music tracks to make the final chapter of CrossCode a very memorable one. However, our usual composer Deniz Akbulut unfortunately wasn't available anymore at this time to make the last CrossCode tracks. He recently has moved to Japan to learn Japanese and enter a university to study music. He had to put his full focus on preparing for the tough entrance exams; his last exam was today actually!

He recommended a good friend of his, who is also incredibly talented, to take over the burden of finishing CrossCode's soundtrack. So, we are proud to announce that the new DLC will feature new music written by はがね/STEEL_PLUS (Twitter)!

We know it took us a while, but as always we wanted to tune all those little knobs close to perfection. What came out of it is something we're very proud of. Thanks for all the support and allowing us to cramp everything in the DLC that we wanted. We did also try to incorporate feedback regarding the difficulty of puzzles (especially those that required precise timings). Once the DLC hits, please let us know what you think of them and the new puzzle element!

And with all that being said... see you again next week, for the release!

Tall Grass Straws and Grass Lawn are two new brushes you can paint with.

Please find the complete list of changes of the update below. Have a good time playing the game!



GENERAL CHANGES

• Introduced unique decals for reaching player character's levels 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100.

An update is now available to download for Poker Club on PC and Xbox platforms. This update brings PC and Xbox platforms in line with PlayStation platforms. Update 1.56 on PC and 1.58 on Xbox platforms include:

• Private multi-table tournaments.
  
• Improvements and clarification of trophies 
  
• Brand new ring reward sequence

As well as this update, we will also be making some changes to the AI across all platforms in the coming weeks. These changes include:

• Behaviour - Based on internal data and community feedback we are making some key tweaks to AI behaviour. This change is primarily focused on the aggressive behaviours of ‘maniacs’ and will also reduce the frequency with which a ‘nit’ will attempt to steal blinds.
  
• Labelling - AI labels will now represent the strategy that AI is playing with at the current table, rather than being formed from how it has played in all of its previous games. This will allow you to make more strategic predictions around how it is going to play.
  
• Statistics - Stats for particular AI players will now only show their history from playing with their current label. E.g. if TwinnyWinTwin is a ‘donkey’ at the current table, you will be able to see how he performed historically as a ‘donkey’ at other tables.

We'll be releasing a Dev Diary with more info on how the AI plays in the near future, so watch this space.

Old School RuneScape is eight years old this month! And what a journey it’s been – what started out as a bit of nostalgia has evolved to become so much more, and it’s all thanks to our brilliant community (and our brilliant devs, of course!)



But we’re not the only ones celebrating. Duke Horacio of Lumbridge is throwing a birthday bash, and he’s decided to invite the monkeys from Ape Atoll. Unfortunately, all the excitement has sent them absolutely bananas and they’ve started to take over the town!



Ready to go ape? Then head to Lumbridge and have a word with the duke. Putting a stop to this monkey business will get you a Cursed Banana, a new wearable item that will see you monkeying around in style, and members can also enjoy the dapper Banana Cape, which comes with its very own emote featuring one of the mischievous monkeys.

As promised in our Minigame Quality of Life poll, we’re introducing a new map to the Last Man Standing map pool: Wild Varrock.



Wild Varrock is an alternative version of the iconic city that exists on another plane. It was discovered by a Guthixian mage keen to find new and exciting places to host their Last Man Standing competition.

Ever wondered what the world would be like if Arrav had never saved Varrock from the calamity at the end of the 4th Age? Well, now’s your chance to find out!



In addition, the following Last Man Standing items have been added to the Collection Log:

• Halos
  
• Deadman Armour
  
• Swift Blade
  
• Guthixian Icon
  
• Special Attack recolours
  
• Victor’s Capes
  
• Weapon paints and upgrade kits
  
• Granite Ornament and Handle

Only untradeable items will be unlocked automatically if you owned them prior to this week’s update – the tradeable ones will only be checked off once you’ve purchased them from the Last Man Standing Reward Store.


We’ve also made the following changes:

• Free-to-play worlds will no longer have the option to play Competitive LMS
  
• The default Last Man Standing map has been renamed ‘Deserted Island’
  
• Numerous textual fixes for Deserted Island
  
• Added a new loot crate model and animation
  
• Loot chests will no longer visually open unless you have a key, but their functionality remains the same

Lastly, we’ve implemented a new system that we hope will make Last Man Standing more enjoyable.

For each game of Last Man Standing that a player leaves before the match has finished, they’ll receive a strike. After three strikes, they’ll be banned from joining Competitive and High Stakes games until the next day. During the daily reset, two strikes will be removed from their account – so if they were banned on Monday, come Tuesday they’ll still have one strike left over.

If you’re at risk of a temporary ban, you’ll receive increasingly prominent warnings upon entering the lobbies.

No matter how high your strike count is, you’ll always be able to access Casual games of Last Man Standing.

Of course, we’ll be monitoring this new system closely and making tweaks as necessary to ensure that we’re reducing abusive behaviour with minimal impact on legitimate players.


We know you want more from LMS – and we want to do more with LMS! But before we can do that, we need to ensure that the games run smoothly, that the new map feels good to play, and that the impact of those abusing this minigame for profit is limited. As you can see, we’re making changes to try and resolve all three issues, so bear with us and remember that the best is yet to come!

Dust devils aren’t the only reason to wear a facemask! Our Official Merch Store has just been updated with these Old School-style face coverings to wear on your AFK adventures.



And don’t forget, you can still pre-order the 20th Anniversary Tutorial Island Pin. Keen-eyed pin collectors will also be pleased to see that the RuneScape Classic Logo pin and the Mini Runes collection are now in stock!

Oh, and keep those eyes peeled – there’s even more anniversary merch coming soon.

• The ‘Doorways’ music track hint now mentions ‘north-east Varrock’ instead of ‘east of Edgeville’.
  
• You will no longer drop food and potions on the ground as a supply pile if you’re in an instanced area. The supplies will now move to the gravestone, as other items do.
  
• The Nightmare Staff Special Attack bar will no longer drain after attacking a higher level Slayer monster.
  
• A typo in the Lil’ Creator’s examine text has been fixed.
