Beta Update: Bug Fixes #2 🛠️

Hello Heroes!

During our Beta testing, we found various issues and are working hard to resolve them.

We're pleased to announce that we've resolved a few of those issues, and are now bringing you a second update.

  • Fixed an issue with Ess'el not being able to move.
  • Optimization of backend systems to bring a better overall experience when matching.


We're looking at all of the issues that you've been experiencing and reporting, and we've prioritized these reports in order to make your Second Wave experience better.

These improvements will be available via the game client updates on Steam and Xbox. If you see an update for the game, please download and update the game in 30 min. [Please restart your steam tray to update your client.]

To fully apply the bug fixes, we will also update the server for 10 minutes starting from 05:40 (UTC)
While updating the server, the matching function won't work properly.

Thank you ✨

Use of Unauthrized Programs

Hello Heroes!

It has come to our attention that some players may be using unauthorized programs to disadvantage other players in a match. While this is not widespread, we wanted to let you know in advance that a formal investigation is now underway on a per-account basis. We will be looking into whether or not a player has used programs such as hacks/cheats to create a less than fun environment for our small community. As the game is in it's first beta, this was not something that was expected, but unfortunately not surprising.

In the future, as we investigate, whether it's in our beta or not, we may pursue permanent suspensions or bans, and legal action against those players who have broken our trust.

Thank you, and please continue to play and have fun. We are very sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

Welcome to the Beta

It’s been a long time coming, but we’re excited to open the gates of Armantia to you once again in our Beta for Second Wave. If you are joining us for the first time…

Welcome to the world of Second Wave, where the battle for supremacy is about to begin! Get ready to dive headfirst into an exhilarating gaming experience unlike any other.

Second Wave is a captivating blend of MOBA-style strategy and pulse-pounding FPS/TPS action, and it’s absolutely free to play!

You and your team will engage in intense battles with a variety of game modes, including Domination, Three-Way-Battle and Stone-Grab where you capture or defend arcane stones, and you’ll do so with a cast of unique and charming characters, each with their own incredible abilities and fascinating stories waiting to be discovered.

Whether you’re a fan of the tough-as-nails tank, the fearless warrior, the cunning ranged dealer, the mystical mage, the stealthy assassin, or the ever-reliable support, we have the perfect character to suit your style.

Do you prefer the intense precision of first-person combat or the tactical advantage of third-person view? The choice is yours, and it can make all the difference in your quest for victory.

Get ready for fast-paced, stylish action like you’ve never seen before. Battles will be fierce, strategies will be cunning, and the thrill of victory will be oh-so-sweet.


However, if you’re joining us once again and entering the battleground to get your hands on the Arcane Stone, you’re going to love the changes we’ve made since our Alpha test. 

[h2]New Heroes[/h2]
We have added five new heroes to our roster, all with new stories that add to the rich background of Second Wave and its lore!

[h2]New Map / Game Mode[/h2]
We’re excited to introduce the Piole Quarry, a new map in Second Wave, where players can participate in the brand new game mode, Stone-Grab. Stone-Grab is a competitive game of “take it or leave it” in the unoccupied Arcane Stone Quarry!

[h2]And So Much More![/h2]
