Greetings Vessels,
We’d like to take a moment to provide an important update regarding Apex Connect Accounts and the Always Online requirement for Ravenbound. We’ve heard your feedback and we know that there are some areas where we can make the game experience better, so we have been working hard since launch to make some changes to address these concerns.
We greatly appreciate your patience as we investigated ways to improve your overall gameplay, and we’re excited to share some upcoming changes:
As of Update 1.1, an Apex Connect account will no longer be required to play Ravenbound and you will be able to play the game offline if you prefer.
When launching Ravenbound, you can choose to enter the Account Creation/Sign In. However, this will not be a requirement if you would prefer to proceed directly into the game, and you can choose to skip this option to play without an Apex Connect account.
We understand that the Always Online requirement has been an important topic of discussion within the community. We recognise that some players may have limited internet access, or may simply prefer to enjoy the game offline, and we want to provide you with the flexibility to choose how you play Ravenbound. Rest assured, whether you decide to play online or offline, we have worked hard to ensure seamless and enjoyable gameplay for all.
While you now have the opportunity to play the game in the way that best suits you, we still want to give flexibility in how you can experience Ravenbound. Playing with an Apex Connect account remains the best way to achieve this, as it offers features such as Player Graves as an example. These can only be found across Ávalt and looted for Cards while you’re playing online with an Apex Connect account.
We genuinely appreciate the support and enthusiasm you have shown for Ravenbound. As you’ve no doubt noticed with changes like these and our other major updates since launch, we are committed to continuously improving the game. We firmly believe that these updates will enhance your gameplay and provide a more tailored journey for each and every player.
Thank you once again for your patience, understanding, and involvement in shaping Ravenbound. As the release of 1.1 approaches, we are excited to embark on this next chapter together as we share some great new features with you all.
We look forward to seeing you in the ever-evolving world of Ávalt!
Sincerely,
The Ravenbound Team
