Greetings, Gatekeepers!
We’ve launched the Steam page for the Crustad DLC. And we’d like to share what we’re working on right now.
Add it to your wishlist so you don’t miss it!
Version 1.2
The free major update 1.2 has grown larger than expected, so its release is shifting by about a month.But before you worry - here’s what’s coming.
Fully Reworked Artifact Ban System
We’ve completely redesigned the artifact ban system in the Emporium.
Previously, you had only 10 ban slots for the entire artifact pool. Now you have 40 slots total, split into 5 artifact categories.Slots unlock as you discover artifacts within their category.
And most importantly, banning is now free. Experiment with builds as much as you like.
Aspect System
Aspects are gameplay modifiers that can make your run more challenging - or easier.
We’ll share more details later.
Soul Engine
A new type of mission.
Activate the Soul Engine and defeat enemies within its area to charge it.
Altar of Interception
An optional activity. Summon the Fugitive and see what he’s hiding in his backpack.And that’s not all - we’ll reveal more closer to release.
Gatekeeper: Crustad
A paid DLC (at a fair price, we promise) that lets you travel to the planet Crustad, fight Lord Crustad, and attempt to rescue your fellow gatekeeper - Maverick.A full overview will come later, but here’s a short list of what to expect:
An alternate final boss with an exclusive soundtrack
A new Gatekeeper
A new planet and a new enemy roster
11 new artifacts
5 new triads
A new mission type
A new altar
The Iron Range - a brand-new side activity for Gatekeeper
Holiday Update
Before the New Year, we’ll release a small update with bug fixes and festive location customization to help lift the mood while we prepare larger content drops.Thank you for staying with us. We hope you enjoy what’s coming.See you in the Amphitheater!
