This update prepares for the start of the new adventure rank season. We have also decided to remove the Fog of War to enable players to make more high-level strategic decisions weighing the risks and rewards of POIs and extraction points. Although we enjoyed the feelings of exploration added by the Fog of War, the feature led to lowered engagement from newer adventurers who we had hoped to protect with this mechanic. We’ve also added two new artifact weapons, the Catice and Bloodthirst which introduces some spectacular new effects. Now that we have our main game modes set, we plan to focus on adding more content for the dungeons in the upcoming season. We thank you and see you in the dungeons!
