[p] [/p][p][/p][h2]For The King II Roadmap and DLC details[/h2][p][/p][p][/p][p]If you missed it, we announced our update For The King II Roadmap last month, allowing players to take a look at what’s to come in the realm of Fahrul. With two major free adventures on the horizon, and six characters joining the roster before 2025 is over, we have a packed year of amazing additions to the game that we can’t wait to share! [/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]Child Of Chaos[/h3][p]A new major adventure Child Of Chaos launches alongside a returning fan favourite character, the Monk. The adventure, including the introduction of the Monk to FTK II goes live as an update to the main game in Q3 of this year for free, as we enter the Age Of Omus.[/p][p]This free adventure brings more than a challenging new chapter of Fahrul’s story to players; it will also include new Mercenaries, Enemies, Biomes, Weapons, Equipment, Cosmetics, and more![/p][p][/p][h3]The Monk[/h3][p]The Monk returns with their toolset from For The King, bringing some new flavour and mechanics to For The King II. Party Heal comes as standard in the Monk’s arsenal, alongside other support staples, such as the ability to restore party members’ Focus and to reflect oncoming damage from foes.

[/p][h3]Tinkerers Of Fate[/h3][p]Our first paid DLC Character Pack launches the same day as the huge free update listed above, bringing two more characters to the For The King II roster: The Toymaker and the Fortune Teller. These new Tinkerers Of Fate come bundled with a new Trait, Mercenary, Pet, Weapons, and a Cosmetic Skin! [/p][p][/p][h3]The Toymaker[/h3][p]An artist who blurs the line between brilliance and madness! The Toymaker is a talent-based character that places the essence of their enemies into a child’s doll. While these creations may look intended for the entertainment of children, they hold a much more nefarious use—once trapped, these tortured souls can be summoned into battle to do the bidding of their maker![/p][p][/p][h3]The Fortune Teller[/h3][p]A mischievous trickster shrouded in mystery. Moving with grace, confidence, and arrogance, the Fortune Teller alters fortune and fate with just the power contained in the palm of their hands. Wielding elite-level awareness, the Fortune Teller controls the fate of those around them through their tarot cards, whether friend or foe. [/p][p][/p][h3]Sharing DLC[/h3][p]We are also excited to announce that we will be enabling shared DLC for Multiplayer sessions. This means we will be pooling your DLC unlocks the same way we pool your Lore Store purchases, meaning only one player in the party is required to own the DLC for all members of the party to enjoy the Tinkerers Of Fate during that multiplayer session![/p][p]We, of course, hope many of you will choose to support us here at IronOak Games by purchasing the pack individually, as this will also enable you to play those characters in other multiplayer sessions and single-player sessions—but we wanted to make this new content as accessible as possible! [/p][p] [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]As always, we love hearing from you, and we can’t wait to get all this great content out to players in Q3 and Q4 of this year. Your continued support and passion make this possible, so thank you for being with us as we continue to build the future of For The King II.

[p]Greetings Adventurers!

We are excited to unleash today’s Pet Shop Update!
This update brings in some new friends, new weapons, a new trait, a new quality of life feature, and a host of bug fixes and changes.
We have new pet companion encounters on the overworld, as well as the ability to purchase and rename pets from the Pet Shop. Feeding and levelling up your pets will help aid in the salvation of Fahrul!
The new Berserker trait and new weapons allow players to amp up their damage, but at what cost...?
And Players now have the option to bulk sell or give items and gold from their inventory. This allows for much more seamless inventory management across your party.
[/p][p]Read on to catch the full list of changes coming in today's patch with For The King II's Pet Shop Update!


[/p][p][/p][h2]Pet Shop[/h2][p]Every adventure needs a fearless friend to help fend off ghosts and goblins! Now you can find a whole new range of pets to join your party, give them their own name, level them up with kibble, and have a party’s best friend help save the day.[/p]

• [p]New pets to unlock and find, or buy from the Pet Shop, throughout each chapter. [/p]
• [p]Name your pet to give it that extra personal touch.[/p]
• [p]Kibble can be fed to pets to keep them healthy and level them up. Watch out, though, those little tikes grow up so fast![/p]

[p][/p][h2]New Trait - Berserker[/h2][p]Available today is the Berserker trait. Berserker brings with it a bit of raw power and a bit of chaos. When equipped with the Berserker trait, players will receive a 20% attack buff, and their equipped weapon will roll half of the standard slot rolls. For example, if you have the Troll Club equipped, which typically has a 6-slot check, with Berserker, it will now roll a 3-slot check. The trade-off is that every equipped weapon is now breakable. Better bring a Blacksmith along![/p][p]Will you have the fortitude to wield such power? Better bring along a Blacksmith, their ability to mend broken weapons in combat will be invaluable. Berserker can be unlocked in the Lore Store after meeting the requirement of having 3 weapon breaks throughout all of your playthrough history. [/p][p][/p][h2]New Weapons[/h2][p]We have a handful of returning weapons with a couple of new whips to add to the mix.[/p][p]First off, we have the return of The Walloper! This big baddy is a 6-slot 50 damage beast of a hammer; a full set of “War” weapons returns with the War Spear, War Axe, and War Pick; the two new whips, the Chain Whip and The Firecracker, deviate from the talent pool as both will roll for strength.[/p][p]These new weapons can be found all across Fahrul throughout Night Markets, Dungeon Merchants, and Loot Drops. The Walloper and The Firecracker are unique artifacts, and parties will only be able to find one of each per run. [/p][p][/p][h2]Inventory Bulk Tagging[/h2][p]Players now have the ability to mark items for Give/Sell or favourite them. This will allow for greater flexibility when giving items, or gold, to other party members, or making those runs to the Town Market to sell off any loot the party no longer needs. [/p]

• [p]Simple one-click tagging to cycle through untagged, tagged, and favourite to easily manage inventory. [/p]
• [p]Tagged items can be given or sold in bulk to streamline inventory management. [/p]
• [p]Favouriting items prevents important gear from accidentally being sold or given away.[/p]
• [p]Three sorting options to sort inventory by default, tagged, or favourited to better organize inventory. [/p]

[p][/p][h2]Combat Timeline[/h2][p]The Combat Timeline has been updated to better match the changes from the recent UI update.[/p]

• [p]The current active character now has a gold border.[/p]
• [p]Additionally, in combat, player health bars will flash when they fall below 25% of Max HP [/p]

[p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Other Changes[/h2]

• [p]Improved the scaling for boss fights when playing with fewer than 4 playable characters. Now, bosses and scourges will summon in less minions related to party size.[/p]
• [p]We’ve reduced the Lore Store unlock requirement for the Clown Wig cosmetic down from 5 Clown Jeremy kills to 1 Clown Jeremy kill.[/p]
• [p]Players can now change their player name from within the player inventory.[/p]
• [p]We’ve changed the difficulty icon crowns back to 3D icons.[/p]
• [p]Scarecrow and Sheep can no longer be affected by statuses.[/p]
• [p]Dark Carnival leaderboards now have better consistency across local and online scores being displayed.[/p]
• [p]Identify scrolls and lockpicks will now show above player HUDs in the treasure chest phase. [/p]
• [p]We have improved Cisco’s aim.[/p]
• [p]The Primordial Acorn has been activated.[/p]
