Attention All Necromancers!

We're closely monitoring your feedback and reviews, and we understand that certain aspects of the game may be causing inconvenience. But fear not! We're thrilled to announce that we're currently working tirelessly on not just one, but two big updates that will address many of the issues you've brought to our attention.

These patches will primarily focus on improving the behavior of AI units. Expect significant enhancements such as units intelligently kiting enemies, utilizing ranged attacks when appropriate, and dodging incoming melee strikes. Moreover, units will no longer ignore enemies when they are ordered to "collect". They'll prioritize self-preservation, attempt to dodge attacks, and fight back, all while still obediently following your commands. Additionally, we are implementing balance tweaks and numerous gameplay improvements, including sorting body parts by various attributes like HP, damage, speed, race, and armor.

The first of these updates will be dropping tomorrow! We're eager to share these improvements with you. Also, Steam Community Items are coming soon too!

Thank you for your continued interest in Necrosmith 2 and your unwavering support. Stay tuned for more updates!
