The patch will be live at:
  • 3 PM PST, December 20th, 2022
  • 6 PM EST, December 20th, 2022
  • 12 AM CET, December 21st, 2022

Now, here’s a word about this patch from Jin Sang Kim, the Creative Director of Lost Eidolons.

---------------------------------------------------

Hello all,

This patch is our biggest game update since the launch of Lost Eidolons. The New Game Plus mode, which was discussed a little in the last patch notes, has finally arrived. With this new mode, I really hope you give the game another go and enjoy Lost Eidolons again in a style you haven’t played in!

I think it would be more interesting to go through the story once again on NG+, because the dialogue cutscenes have been greatly improved in this patch. The development team really worked hard to bring this to you with the NG+ mode. We did the best we can to do our best storytelling within the limits of our resources, so I would like to encourage all those who have already finished the game to enjoy the story again on NG+.

After this patch, we plan to work on improving endings and optional battles. We did try to highlight the fact that there are multiple endings by adding a little more dynamic UI to conversations this time around. But what we’re planning now is to improve the endings themselves in the next patch, in order to tell you a little more about what happens to each character after the conclusion of Lost Eidolons albeit in text format.

For the optional battles, we’re trying to make the repeating battles a little more interesting so please look forward to it!

We wish you the happiest of holidays and an even happier New Year! :)

- Jin Sang

Important Note Regarding the Upcoming New Game+ Mode

Greetings, Tacticians.

As we get closer and closer to bringing you the big New Game+ patch, we’re getting more and more excited! It is something we’ve been thinking about as soon as we launched, and is very close to becoming a reality.

Before we bring the patch to you, we do have an important note for our most veteran Tacticians. You may recall that our patch on November 9th is when we added the ability to save after clearing the game. This means that finishing the game before that update did not create a record for New Game+ purposes. If you beat the game before updating to GM1.02, please be advised that you would need to fight the last battle and watch the ending again to enter New Game+. Tacticians who reached the end of the game after the GM1.02 patch are not affected.

We apologize that our most dedicated Tacticians who beat the game within the first month of release are affected by this. On launch day, we saw that many Tacticians enjoyed Lost Eidolons and wanted even more. This led us to plan NG+ right away, but it also meant we had to perform additional backend work. While we did our best to make haste, the earliest we could implement NG+ preparations was November 9th.

We looked into different options such as using achievements to recover at least some data, but realized that it would actually pose more risk to the game’s stability. Another concern was that a patchworked save file would not be able to fully carry over everything our Tacticians worked so hard to achieve, making it a marred experience.

We are deeply grateful for the support all our Tacticians have shown us, and hope the New Game+ update would bring you more fun as you revisit Artemesia. If you have any questions, please feel free to join our Discord server and ask them to our staff.
