For The King II News

• We discovered an issue in Dark Carnival that bosses weren’t being cleaned up correctly on defeat. They were attempting to load into subsequent battles resulting in an empty HUD on the combat timeline. When players clicked on that timeline the game would softlock.
  

Happy Adventuring!

Hotfix coming to address an issue that certain players were seeing where encountering a Mimic would cause a softlock when the mimic had first attack.

• Players affected by this mimic issue will be able to continue into their affected game runs.
  

Thanks for playing!

Greetings Adventurers,

The Ringmaster continues to stretch parties to their limits, while certain adventurers have been able to plunge deeper than before, it’s been great to see new and returning players jump into the Dark Carnival, or take on the other challenges Fahrul has to offer.

This patch contains updates to both Dark Carnival and the Overworld adventures - from softlocks to Lore Store unlocks, and a pretty nasty bug where people weren’t getting credit for completing the adventure. We also have a fix for a black screen issue that we’ve been able to reproduce. If anyone is still seeing black screens please reach out to us on Discord and we’ll work to resolve it.

[h3]Dungeons of Hinterberg Crossover Items[/h3]
To celebrate the launch of Dungeons of Hinterberg tomorrow, we’ve teamed up with Curve Games and Microbird to include some exclusive in-game items within this patch. Now you can travel through the perilous dungeons of Fahrul in pure Hinterberg-style. Check out Luisa’s backpack, outfit, and legendary sword in game when they launch alongside Dungeons of Hinterberg on July 18th!

• Custom Settings - Fixed the issue where custom settings were not being applied correctly.
