it's been a while since we quite literally kickstarted our journey together back in October 2020. Knight's Tale is finally out, and we're just getting started!

Thanks for all your amazing feedback on Day 1! There's a few things for us to look into now, such as crash issues and a few bugs here and there, but we'd like to assure you all that we're aware of these issues and fixes are in the works. You can expect a hotfix for the most pressing bugs ASAP.

Until then, Avalon and the Round Table are in your hands! We're also going live at 4 PM CEST (in less than 30 minutes) on our Twitch channel for an exciting release stream. Feel free to join the Neocore Round Table, watch us play (and hopefully not lose too many Heroes) - as always, we will be taking questions from chat during the entire stream.

Drop by and say hi!
