Dev Update: September 7, 2021
The next patch for Siralim Ultimate will be the largest the series has ever received!
Thanks to our Kickstarter backers, we're adding 9 new realms for players to unlock. Yes, that's 9 new tilesets, each with their own new gods, creatures, items, blessings, relics, realm quests, avatars, and much more. These realms won't be available during the game's main storyline, but after you defeat the final boss of the tutorial game you'll have the opportunity to unlock and explore them whenever you want.
Here's some battle background art to whet your appetite for now:
Forbidden Depths, ruled by Anneltha, Goddess of Earth:
Amalgam Gardens, ruled by T'mere M'rgo, God of Fusion:
Astral Gallery, ruled by Muse, Goddess of Creation:
I want to reiterate that these new realms were designed by our Kickstarter backers, and I can't thank them enough for their support.
The next patch also includes nearly 200 new creatures for players to collect! Just like with the new realms, these creatures were all designed by our Kickstarter backers. All backer-designed creatures will belong to the new "Exotic" race.
Unlike normal creatures, Exotic creatures can't be found running around in realms like usual. Instead, you'll sometimes encounter an "Otherworld Portal" in realms that will take you to a boss fight against a randomly-selected Exotic creature. If you manage to defeat the creature, you'll receive enough Mana to summon it in your castle.
Each creature comes with its own bestiary lore and trait material. Other than their method of acquisition, Exotic creatures behave exactly like normal creatures - you can fuse them, go on assassination or hunt missions for them, and everything else you can do with the creatures that are already in the game.
-------------------------------------
As you can imagine, these new additions to the game are massive in scope, so I can't give a reliable ETA for when this patch will be ready. However, I'm already pretty deep into implementing all this new content and I'm confident that it'll be ready sooner than you might expect.
That's all for now! Thanks to everyone for their support. I hope you're all enjoying the game.
