I am excited to announce that the Community Story Update Part 1 is now out! This update includes 20 story quests, a brand new intro cutscene, new monthly skins for December, new Quick Breaking rune, new hidden features, and much more fixes/changes.
The world has fallen under the corruption of the Eternal Wraith, and while all hope seems lost, Sapius continues his search for the one who can put a stop to this nightmare. You are that person, and because you were able to withstand the temptations of an Eternal Fragment, you have proven to be the one who can persevere without falling into temptation.This brand new cutscene is shown after starting the game with a new character, but not before the tutorial. I hope to bring more cutscenes in the future, but I am waiting on more artwork to be done at this time.

The current monthly skins were actually from the previous year and the ones above will be coming in this update! I will do better in terms of getting new skins added before the new months come as I have been a bit behind on that. Congrats to andye_, tobi, and Xanathar for being a part of December’s monthly skins!
Tired of having to take damage to reset your shield barrier or having to get one shot because you thought you had enough barrier? Fear no more Warriors! You now have a button to reset your Shield Barrier and you no longer have damage overflow to hp. The best part about the barrier is that it now reduces damage taken by armor and no more losing shield due to step decay. Thank you for your feedback on that skill!
Everyone! Say hi to BOB. He is an NPC capable of upgrading a normal equipment into a gold, but also make them even more cosmetically appealing. There is a small chance for him to appear at the Crossroads. To upgrade, make sure you have the weapon equipped then give him your weapon. The stats of the equipment doesn’t change, but it’s good to know BOB has the ability to smash stuff and make them truly something special. It’s a 50/50 chance of success, but nothing happens if he fails. If successful, you can climb up the cosmetic tier from Gold to Crimson, Platinum, and Extreme Gold.
I took in a lot of community stories and I am going to see to it that I add all approved stories. We still have 2nd Tier profession for Archer and Thief as well as the Community Dungeon all planned for the near future. Expect more new exciting things to come, but also I will take some time off for the holidays after a couple of bug fixes.
We are shaping up the foundation of OneBit multiplayer as a new game called Rogue Together. I am going to be livestreaming development on Wednesdays via YouTube and Kick, but it is very important that you sign up for the Rogue Together newsletter so I know how many people are interested in backing this game for when it comes time to Kickstart. This game will have plenty of content, but the animations requires a lot of time and effort so I will be crowdfunding to get the game as pretty as it can be. I will keep you update on any progress here and once the Kickstarter does launch, I will migrate that info to the official Rogue Together website. Thank you for your support and look forward to more amazing updates to come!
