We are busy working on the substantial Kintsugi update. As a reminder: Kintsugi, as part of Wabi-Sabi, an aesthetic concept, refers to the art of reassembling broken vessels and decorating the cracks with gold, silver, or platinum.

We have already introduced two features: the new animals, and the upcoming performance improvements. Of course, that won't be all, and we can't reveal a number of exciting things right now. But you are welcome to ask questions again, for example, are the new animals just as insidious as the boars and has the game world become a slightly more dangerous place?

Let your imagination run wild and let us know what you hope to see in the Kintsugi update (or in a later update).

The closing date for questions is 1 February 2024 at 23:59.

Youkoso,

In the upcoming Kintsugi Update, we're focused on more than just adding new content. Here's a quick rundown of the optimization improvements:

DLSS and FSR Support: We've introduced DLSS and FSR support for enhanced antialiasing, improving both the visuals and overall gameplay experience.

Frame Generation for Newer Cards: A significant enhancement is Frame Generation, a novel method leveraging AI to boost FPS. This feature is currently compatible with DLSS on RTX series 40XX and FSR for most cards over GTX 1080, including AMD cards. Here are some before and after shots from the game:





While we're eager to receive your observations on the beta branch, our initial tests have shown over 100% FPS increase, particularly on systems already achieving at least 60 FPS - if you have less, this is experimental, but might work for you.

Ongoing Performance and Loading Time Improvements: We're actively working on further enhancements to performance and loading times. Stay tuned for more details in upcoming spotlights. Once we're confident it works seamlessly, these improvements are set to revolutionize your overall gaming experience.

Your feedback on the beta branch will be crucial in fine-tuning these optimizations, so don't hesitate to share your experiences. We're committed to delivering a smoother and more enjoyable gaming experience with the Kintsugi Update.

The Kintsugi Update is on its way, and we're excited to reveal some of its content. We're shifting from strict theme-based updates to a more flexible approach. This allows us to prioritise the features you want most, even if they don't align with the main theme. We've listened to your feedback and will be adjusting our roadmap accordingly.

Introducing the first additions to the Kintsugi Update:

Hokkaido Wolves: A subspecies of grey wolf, now extinct.



Japanese Black Bears: An endangered species known for a distinctive white mark on their chest.



👉 But wait, there's more! We're also introducing a completely different animal unlike any seen in the game so far. Any guesses?

Winter in Japan is a mesmerising time of year when the country reveals its unique beauty. From December to February, Japan wraps itself in a chilly blanket of ice and snow and offers a remarkable variety of winter landscapes.

The mountains of Japan shine in brilliant white in winter. In the villages, the season creates a dignified and picturesque mood.

The traditional temples and shrines, covered in snow, lend the surroundings a distinctive atmosphere.

Overall, winter in Japan is a time of contrasts and the harmony of quiet beauty and sublime grandeur is equally enchanting.
