Hello friends! Just one week left until the game's launch!
As the release date approaches, everyone in the studio is feeling exceptionally nervous and excited. We can't wait to meet our players!
In the time since our last update, we've completed a ton of content (limited by space, only some are listed below), let me give a work report:
- Added over 100 new talents
- Perfected over 20 new characters yet to debut
- Completed Endless Mode/Hell Mode, and subsequent chapter difficulty adjustments
- Continuously tested/optimized online experience (including 3-player co-op)
- Leaderboard feature
- Map Easter Egg system
- Based on player data, did an extra round of numerical balancing (including talent strength, divine weapon strength, characters, Bosses, etc.)
- Dynamic loading + baking for the large map (significantly optimized scene performance)
- Improved controller support
- Story Fragment System (nearly 30,000 words of storyline), character dialogue, subsequent cutscenes/comics
- Added some UI (related to online play, all weapon ICONs, character skills, etc.)
- Perfected localization (English/Traditional Chinese/Korean)
- Improved cloud save feature
- Fixed a bunch of BUGs
After the game goes live, we will continue to share development logs. Please pay close attention to us to stay updated on the game's changes!
