[h2]SolForge Fusion is now Free-to-Play on Steam![/h2]

Today will be your first chance to start your SolForge Fusion adventure without spending a dime because the game is now free-to-play. Our vision for SolForge Fusion has always been to bring the game to as many players as possible. By making this change, we are removing barriers to entry and broadening the community for the good of all.

For our current players, we have some fantastic rewards waiting just for you as a token of appreciation for supporting the game.

[h3]Here are the Gifts and Bonuses for current players:[/h3]

Current owners of SolForge Fusion will receive a free booster pack (includes 4 Faction Decks), and complimentary access to the all-new Premium Mastery Track.

The Premium Mastery Track will be unlocked for existing players but will be a paid feature for new free-to-play users. Additionally, all players who purchased the game before our transition to free-to-play will receive a free Digital Booster Pack containing four free decks. We’ll announce how current players will claim those decks soon.

Quests
We are proud to unveil our brand new Quest system. Quests provide challenges you can complete while playing games to earn more Gold, which you can redeem in the Shop for Phantom Decks, potions, and other purchases. You will have a selection of six quests to complete each day. Once a day, if you have less than six quests, you will be assigned new quests until you have six available.

We are going free to play!
On Thursday, August 15th, we will be moving to a free-to-play model. Our vision for SolForge Fusion has always been to bring the game to as many players as possible. In making this change, we are removing barriers to entry and broadening the community for the good of all. For those that already purchased the game, you will be receiving even more rewards with details to follow shortly!

Mastery Track Changes
With the change to free-to-play, we are making some changes to the Mastery Track. New players joining the game for free will note that certain rewards on the Mastery Track are locked. These are tied to our premium Mastery Track offering. In order to unlock these rewards, players will need to visit the Shop and upgrade their Mastery Track to premium. All players who have already purchased the game and supported us on this journey will automatically have their accounts upgraded to the premium Mastery Track and should notice no change in their progress and rewards.

Potions!

Potions are a new type of consumable you can use during a campaign run. They will give you a one-time bonus for the next encounter you face. Currently, you can receive the following potions:

• Health Potion: You start your next encounter with +25 Health.
  
• Strength Potion: All creatures in your deck have +3 Attack for the next encounter.
  
• Speed Potion: All creatures in your deck have Aggressive for the next encounter.
  

Potions can be earned through the Player XP Rewards Track, or be purchased either in the Store or during a campaign run. Additional potions may be added over time.

In-game currency - Gold!

Gold can now be earned through the rewards on the Player XP Rewards Track and can be used either to purchase additional potions or new Phantom Decks from the Store. You can also purchase additional potions directly from your campaign.

Potions will cost players 300 gold, while a new Phantom Deck will cost 500 gold.

Players will see their total gold on the game’s main screen, within the Player XP Rewards Track, and within the Store.

Additional ways to earn gold will be coming soon!
