Incremental Epic Hero 2 News

Hello everyone! Thank you all for your continued support!
It’s been just over a week since the full release of IEH2, and the number of new players has reached 20,000! Daily Active Users has surpassed 8000, and Concurrent Users have exceeded 3300, with these numbers continuing to grow! We are thrilled about this incredible new beginning for IEH2. Thank you so much! 😄

We’re excited to announce that we have started the open beta test for the next relatively large update!
Currently, the beta test is being held on our Discord server. By participating in the beta, you’ll get an early look at the upcoming update, which includes exciting features such as 9th or more Skill Slots, new content after Town [Adventuring Party] Rank 3, and much more!
If you’d like to take part in the beta and experience these updates ahead of their official update release, now is the perfect time to join our Discord!

IEH2 has been supported by all of you since its Early Access launch 2.5 years ago. Your feedback has been incorporated into the game in countless ways, and through beta testing, we’ve been able to fix bugs and improve the game before official updates. We are truly grateful for your support. Thank you so much!

We look forward to your continued support of IEH2 and our development team, Hapiwaku!

Bonus codes that grant in-game items are listed on the Hapiwaku Website! Be sure to check them out 😊

[h3][ver. 2.1.1.3][/h3]

• Changed: Now a monster in Bestiary will be unlocked by either Defeated #1+ or Captured #1+. Previously it required Defeated # at least 1. So now capturing a monster also unlocks it. (I've noticed that many people don't realize they clear Unicorn Areas using only Capture 😂 )
  
• Changed: Super Dungeon / Pure Enchants are now colored purple/cyan in the [Advanced Auto-Disassemble Equipment Enchantments Filter]
  
• Balanced: Added the challenge boss [Guardian Kor]'s shield change guarantee. Every 6th cast that it swaps shield type.

Hello everyone! I have some exciting news to share with you today 🙂

On the third day of the full release, we've achieved some incredible milestones! Our Daily Active Users have surpassed 7800+, finally exceeding the 5800 we saw during the Early Access launch 🎉
Additionally, the Concurrent Users have now reached over 3000! We’re absolutely thrilled and deeply grateful to all of you for making this possible.

We’ll continue working hard to add more content and updates to IEH2! Stay tuned and look forward to what’s coming next 😄

• Fixed: The display issue of Hero Fame gained in the last minutes in the tooltip
  
• Fixed: Guild Advisor [Rebirth] now requires the Global Quest [Tutorial 9 : Town Research] clear
  
• Improved: German texts
  

Hello everyone! The full release of IEH2 has had an amazing start. On just the second day, the Daily Active Users count has surpassed 5000! This matches the numbers we saw during the Early Access launch, and it’s still growing rapidly! Thank you so much 😄
Concurrent Players have also reached 2400+ at the moment, and we’re incredibly excited!

This patch brings significant improvements to the German localization! Originally, it was machine-translated, but the native speakers and volunteers, Yami Fenrir and Xyki, kindly offered their help and have gone through and corrected the entire text! While there are still some issues to address, such as text overflowing from boxes, we believe the game is now much more user-friendly for German people!

And now, I’m already working on coding new content. Stay tuned! Let’s make 2025 an incredible year together with IEH! 🎉

Hello everyone!
Since the Full Release of IEH2 yesterday, over 2,000 new players have joined and started playing the game in just one day! Thank you so much 😊

We even hit #1 on Steam's Free-to-Play trending list, kicking things off with an amazing start! Thank you for making this possible!

To show our gratitude and celebrate the Full Release, we’re excited to announce the launch of the IEH2 - Full Release Bundle! This special bundle allows you to purchase DLCs at a discounted rate with 20% OFF. Don’t miss this chance to grab it!

Thank you, as always, for your warm support. We truly appreciate it and look forward to continuing this journey with you!

Hello everyone 😄
Happy New Year!

[h3]After more than 2.5 years in Early Access, Incremental Epic Hero 2 (IEH2) has officially launched! [/h3]
We’re thrilled to celebrate the start of 2025 with this major milestone and hope it sets the stage for an amazing year ahead for all of us.
We’ve made significant improvements, including a major overhaul to the game’s progression speed, making the gameplay experience far more enjoyable and smoother than when it was first released in Early Access.
If you’ve played before, this is the perfect opportunity to jump back in and experience the evolution of IEH2. Let’s make 2025 the best year yet with the adventure of IEH2!

[h2]For Returning Players[/h2]
If it’s been a long time since you last played, this might be a great chance to start fresh! We’ve significantly increased the progression speed for the early and mid-game, so you’ll be able to catch up quickly even if you start over.

[h3]DLC Purchase Bug Fixed[/h3]
We’ve resolved the longstanding issue where DLC purchases were not properly applied for some players. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and encourage you to give it another try with this update.

[h2]New Features[/h2]
[h3]Guild Advisor & Time Attack[/h3]
We’ve added a brand-new tutorial system called the Guild Advisor, designed to support players during the early stages of the game. Every time you unlock a Guild Advisor tip, you’ll earn 500 Epic Coins!
Note: Guild Advisor tips can only be unlocked on save data created after the full release in January 2025.

Even if you're not a new player, you can try the start of the game again with the new Time Attack mode. Time Attack is triggered by a Hard Reset feature. (See [Settings] > [Event] Tab)
For safety, we recommend exporting your current save data first using the [Export File] button (ensure you save it to a different location than your C drive). Once your save is safe, you can reset through the [Settings] Tab > [Hard Reset] button. After a hard reset, closing and restarting the game will allow you to carry over Epic Coins, Bundles, and DLCs purchased with real money by using the [Restore Purchase] button in the Epic Store. See how quickly you can push your Guild Level and World Ascension progress with help from the Guild Advisor and your own knowledge of how to play the game!

Once you have finished the Time Attack, you can re-import your old save to claim the rewards, and as a bonus you will also receive the Epic Coins from any Guild Advisor tips you unlocked!

[h3]Rebirth Tier 4[/h3]
The long-awaited Rebirth Tier 4 is finally here! Unlock Temple Rank 3 and dive into this powerful new progression system!

[h3]Unicorn Area[/h3]
A brand-new region, Unicorn Island, has been added! Unlock it by upgrading Cartographer to Level 85. Unicorns bring exciting new content, including:

• Pure Effects: A new equipment effect type that introduces a separate multiplier for stats.
  
• Unicorn Pets Effects, such as Auto Super Dungeon for Auto Rebirth Tier 4+, Guild Fame Gain, Gem Ritual Speed and Piece of Ruby Gain bonuses.
  

With these additions, both early and late-game players have fresh challenges and rewards to look forward to!
For more detail, see the patch note!
