Hello Willowguards!
The day is finally upon us, and we're pleased to announce the release of the (first?) DLC for Willow Guard: Frostreign. Follow out intrepid hero across the frozen Atalaka mountains, uncover mysteries, and fight increasingly dangerous and hostile monsters as you attempt to return to Regnum Polis.
Some notes on the DLC:
The game version will always be the same for both DLC and the main game, and all updates for the DLC will also propagate automatically to the main game.
Version 1.6.4 includes both all of the DLC content AND updates and fixes to the main game, including:
Some improvements to the enemy AI to make them more responsive.
New traps and buffs to traps (make sure they don't trigger until fully deployed!)
New weather and Post-Processing effects (mainly for the DLC, but possible also for the main game in a future update!)
UI updates, including the ability to see where the stats that make up your character are actually coming from.
Various bug fixes, typo fixes, and the like, as per usual.
YOU WILL BE ABLE TO CONTINUE DIRECTLY WITH YOUR OLD SAVE. If you have a save that, when loaded, returns you to the end conversation in camp - simply load that save after purchasing the DLC, and you will continue straight into the new story!
If you do not have your old save, but have finished the game previously, there will also be the option New Game (DLC). This will start you right at the start of the DLC, with a pre-defined save. Note that this save has no memories of what happened previously, so it is highly recommended you play with your own save!
This is not the final version - as with Willow Guard, we will continue to create new content (monsters, storylines, dungeons, locations) to expand the world. The current content allows you to reach your goal, but there are still more adventures to be had in the Atalakas in the future.
If you are having any trouble accessing your DLC after purchase, please let us know. The logo and main menu will change to show you have it unlocked - if it does not, something went wrong!
From all of us on the dev team, thank you for embarking on this journey with us, and see you on the other side of the portal!
