Sharpen your blades and ready your ears—let's dive in![/p][p][/p][h2]Through the darkness, we rise![/h2][p][b]First steps matter.[/b][/p][p]We've transformed the early game with a brand new introduction chapter, that starts within the [b]Void Hunters' Stronghold[/b] — a living, breathing introduction to our world. You will find out what the Void Hunters seek to accomplish and how all the parts of the game finally fit together into one campaign. [/p][previewyoutube="srOZuiB29kc;full"][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p]You will learn more about the Void Hunters, their Stronghold and what they seek to achieve, in order to [b]protect the Dawnstone, the light that must never fade.[/b] [/p][previewyoutube="q7N6gBXFzZ4;full"][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p]As the game unfolds and you unlock new characters, you will learn more about the world, their mission and the personality of each Void Hunter, [b]with over 2500 new voice lines[/b] spread across the game.

We collaborated with [b]12 incredible voice actors[/b] to capture each void hunter’s essence.[/p][previewyoutube="2IVhNesZ9uk;full"][/previewyoutube][p]This is something we always wanted to add to the game, and while it took months of planning and writing and reviewing… hearing the characters in-game for the first time felt like magic to us, and we can only hope you will enjoy it as much as we do![/p][p][/p][h2]Brand new soundtracks[/h2][p]With everything that is coming to the game with the full release, we obviously needed [b]new epic music[/b] to accompany it. Gama, our sound designer has been hard at work tinkering with a brand new OST for it. Have a listen at [b]the vibe he’s going for:[/b] [/p][previewyoutube="e7mExbLeLFA;full"][/previewyoutube][p][/p][h2]Closing Thoughts: The Calm Before the Storm[/h2][p]These additions finally lay the last pieces of the foundation for [b]1.0's imminent launch[/b]. It has truly been an incredible journey so far. The game has changed so much since its first playable version that it feels a bit crazy, and we are preparing a [b]little bit of a nostalgia trip to show you just how much the game has changed over time![/b] So stay tunned to our socials for that! Also important to note that version [b]1.0 is not the end for Soulstone Survivors.[/b] We truly want to continue working on the game for as long as we possibly can and this is made possible by [b]YOUR[/b] continued love and support, so a most heartfelt [b]THANK YOU![/b] Farewell, for now... Good luck out there, void hunters. [img src="{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42629950/0613ae8b16cc071c726ac24a6c6e0f9156b2c8a2.gif"][/img][/p][p] [i][b]~ The Soulstone Team[/b][/i][/p]
