Pax Autocratica News

Hi EFAS players and followers：

As always, thanks everyone for your continuous support and feedback about each version of the game. This time we've improved the matchmaking system so that you can easily play with people you don't know, because we know that stealing the drops of your friends is not funny enough! It's way better to torment people you don't know, it always helps to make some new "friends", right! There is also a super interesting special attack for the Crossbows, I'll not say much but it's time for you to show your skills ːsteamhappyː
And! We finally! Added! A SUPER BOSS! You will have to fight through several levels to get to know him, but be aware, it might not be a very cordial meeting!
We hope that you will continue to enjoy the new content and we also hope that you will give enough feedback so that our QA team and Game Designers can finally lose as many hairs as our Developers. By the way, we are making a lot of changes story-wise so you might find out some new weird stuff popping sometimes. The game name will change in the near future, but we will tell you more in the next updates!

Let's look into what else you can expect in this update:
