Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Is there going to be a mid chapter patch….

or are we just done with content for the year? Not going to lie but the game looks rough at the moment. The Krasue chapter was a mess, the rift is the worst one to date and to top it all off, it is almost 4 months long. I know the Halloween event is around the corner but to be honest, I am not even looking forward to it. It will just be a recycled event from the previous years, and it features a skin for the Skull Merchant who a lot of people dislike.

    there will be no more new content until January

    The rest of the year will be just bug fixes

    I think the rift being "bad" is because they are pooling up resources for the bug fixing and quality of life issues. There is no point to use resources to anything else than getting the game in state that people will be happy about as currently it clearly is not that. They clearly still want to keep developing the game otherwise they would not use resources to fix it. About the Skull Merchant skin for halloween could also hint that they might release the rework for her before halloween so she would be in better state. They haven't been really vocal of the updates to characters as Shape's rework was quite a surprise to people. Hopefully this all means they are really getting the game to good state.

    • AFAIK the Skull Merchant rework won't be happening until at least next year. We don't have an exact timeframe but there's zero chance of it happening before Halloween.
    • Bug fixing and QoL improvements shouldn't affect the art team at all. They're artists, not programmers, and so allocating them to working on game health makes no sense.

    There is quite a lot of skin texture bugs and the artist most likely also work with other textures in the game so they don't just create cosmetics.

    they said we will have a release in November (most likely mid chapter) but it will solely focus on bug fixes and quality of life.
