Industry Idle News

For those of you who have been playing the game for a while, you should be familiar with the game's content update model: usually content update is released at least once a week - some contents are included in the base game while others are exclusive to Expansion Pack 1 (i.e. premium content)

When Expansion Pack 1 was released, it came with a guarantee that it would cover all premium content updates for 3 months after its release. This is to provide some confidence that you don't have to pay for endless DLCs to enjoy all the game content. The game contains no microtransactions of any kind.

Expansion Pack 1 is released on March 29 and three months after that is June 29. However, towards the end of June, due to extra effort spent on dealing with cheaters and hackers, as well as my personal reason, the game missed content updates for 2 weeks. To compensate for that, I'd like to extend the premium content update coverage time for Expansion Pack 1 for at least another month, until July 29.

There are no plans for a new expansion pack yet - my current focus is to deliver what I have planned for Expansion Pack 1 and polishes it as much as I can. I will share with the community when I have a plan myself - until then, happy building!
