Hotfix Update 0.3.1

Stormgate brings you Hotfix 0.3.1! With the implementation of fully customizable hotkeys, we knew there would be some bugs that weren’t discovered until the feature truly got in the hands of players. Thank you to everyone that has taken the time to post bugs and feedback after the recent patch as you are the reason we are able to find and fix these bugs so quickly!

In order to implement this patch we will need to enter maintenance mode starting at 11am PT / 1900 UTC / 3am KST.

StarCraft spiritual successor Stormgate adds its most highly requested feature

With former Blizzard developers involved in the StarCraft, Warcraft, and Diablo series on its team, Frost Giant Studios certainly has a solid pedigree. But its new RTS game Stormgate landed last year to a decidedly mixed reception. Players felt it had arrived too soon, with criticisms of a lack of visual polish and low production values on its campaign cutscenes. Since then, however, the team has been hard at work on improvements, and a new Stormgate update out today looks to make some serious changes, including a visual overhaul and the game's most-requested quality-of-life feature.
