[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][h2]Romeo & Juliet Launch[/h2][p]
The reception of the free Romeo & Juliet DLC has been phenomenal. Your feedback exceeded our expectations, and the entire team is thrilled with your reactions. We cannot share the exact numbers due to confidentiality, but I can say that the DLC launch surpassed the 1.0 Monthly Active Players numbers. That’s crazy 🤯
[/p][p]Alongside your amazing support, we were also blessed with beautiful fan arts, check them out at the bottom of this news.
[/p][p][/p][p]Let's talk about the stats now! Over 500,000 runs have been played with Romeo & Juliet already, and they have died over 2 million times combined since they joined the Ravenswatch![/p][p]
Your favorite Starting Talent for Romeo is “Ice Rose” with a 45% pick rate, but it’s "Floral Dodge" that you put at the number one spot of Romeo’s most picked talents with a 72% pick rate.[/p][p]
On Juliet’s side, you picked “Volcanic Shots” as your most chosen Starting Talent, with a 51% pick rate. How surprising! But your lucky pick is “Lucky Shot” with an impressive 86% pick rate![/p][p][/p][p]We can’t wait to see what the stats will look like in the long run![/p][p][/p][h2]Scarlet Plushie (Makeship)[/h2][p][/p][p][/p][p]The community has been requesting merch for Ravenswatch for a long time. We're really happy to introduce the very first and official goodies! In partnership with Makeship, we’ve launched a crowdfunding campaign for a Scarlet plushie!
[/p][p]The Scarlet plushie is $29,99 and will be shipped worldwide starting September 14 if the campaign reaches 200 ordered units. If the campaign doesn't reach its goal, the plush will never see the light of day, and you will be automatically refunded for your full order.
[/p][p]You have just a few hours left to snatch yours!
Get your Scarlet Plushie[/p][p][/p][h2]Community Survey Results
[/h2][h2]
[/h2][p]
Back in April, we published a Community Survey on the topic of Ravenswatch post-launch updates, which allowed us to gather your impressions of the Nightmares Unleashed Update, as well as your expectations for future game content.
[/p][p]We received over 3500 answers, which is completely bonkers. Thanks for your participation! Let’s check the results.[/p][p][/p][p]The first surprising stat was the repartition of solo and co-op players. Almost 45% of respondents indicated that they were co-op players only, compared to 18% of solo exclusive players. There was also a good representation of players who admitted to enjoying both solo and co-op play, with 37% of the responses. This was quite reassuring as we were about to launch the Romeo & Juliet DLC.[/p][p]
[/p][p]Overall, the Nightmares Unleashed Update was well received with a 4.17 out of 5 score on general appreciation. The new Boss Patterns were the most liked addition, whereas you were the most critical of the Refugees and Abu Al Jaan.

We were thrilled to see that there was genuine enthusiasm for the addition of new Side Quests. That's perfect timing, because our next update will bring you new adventures! You’re also interested in new Talents for existing Heroes, which is tricky because adding new talents quickly becomes exponential with the number of heroes we already have in the game. But there was the same interest in new Magical Objects, and we’ve got some ideas for those![/p][p] [/p][p]We really enjoyed reviewing the responses to this first community survey. It provided us with valuable insights into what should be a priority during the post-launch support of Ravenswatch. We’re already working on a new survey coming out this summer to ask you about more specific balancing changes to Talents and Magical Objects.[/p][p][/p][h2]Community Creations[/h2][p]

Dark fantasy co-op game Ravenswatch adds two more characters for free

If you love the likes of Hades but also enjoy co-op, there have been some great options in the past year. Currently, my 2025 frontrunner is Sworn, an Arthurian spin on the action roguelike. But Ravenswatch was the big winner for me in 2024. Already a fantastic action RPG when played alone, the dark fantasy adventure with a fairy-tale cast gets even better if you bring another player along for the ride, and that's more true than ever with the release of its new, free DLC. With two more characters joining the roster and a Steam sale discount to match, it's a great time to play.
