MAJOR UPDATE: Gladiator's Revenge Update OUT NOW! + 40% discount

Early Access v0.7 - Gladiator's Revenge

Full Changelog

This update celebrates the 2 year anniversary and doubles down on the gladiator theme of the game by introducing new backstories as well as many new items (50!) and unit types that fit this theme. In addition to that, the game has also finally been translated to 11 languages and we've overhauled the loading screen to provide tips as you play!

NOTE: Due to a change in the way the save game is structured, this update will reset your current live character and roll a new one. Your options and meta progression (Victories, stats, settings, etc) will not be reset though.

MAJOR new content & features

• NEW Backstory: Veteran Aspirant
  An accomplished gladiator coming back to the arena to finally take revenge and claim his place as Grand Champion of Terantia! This backstory comes with 3 subclasses, each hailing from a different culture and trained in a different style of combat.
  • The Dormorian
  • The Terrantian
  • The Myrodonian

• NEW Backstory: Condemned
  Sentenced to fight in the arena until death, the Condemned starts without earthly possessions and only has bad luck and negative starting conditions. This backstory is now the ultimate challenge in the game! The Condemned has to be unlocked by winning a run in Lionslayer difficulty and is only available to play in that difficulty!

NEW: Localization

Added support for 11 languages. You can select your language in the Game Options via dropdown. Added languages:

• French
• Italian
• German
• Spanish
• Brazilian Portuguese
• Polish
• Russian
• Simplified Chinese
• Traditional Chinese
• Japanese
• Korean

(Note: localisation will be refined more and more over time!)
