FREE WEEKEND LIVE | IWC 0.41 Alpha Patch Notes

Welcome to the newest patch for Infinity Wars Classic, Alpha version 0.41. It's official, we've finally launched into Alpha! And to celebrate, we're running a free weekend until sunday/monday (timezone dependent) for all our players, and not just our Patreon supporters. Not only that, but you'll receive a free pack of cards just for playing this weekend, that will be credited to your account. So jump in and play!

[h3]Reminder: FREE DEMO[/h3]
All players now have the ability to download Infinity Wars Classic through Steam directly. Just make sure your game is up to date and you'll be good to go! This is a great way to get hands-on with what we've created so far as a bit of a sample of what's to come.
Yes, free demo is less important when there's a free weekend, but if you're reading this when the free weekend is over, you can still jump in to the demo whenever you like.



[h2]Major Features[/h2]

Alpha Release
With the recent optimisation updates, as well as both the current state of the Infinity Card Engine and the current core gameplay loop looking better than ever, we're happy enough to officially move out of our Pre-Alpha phase, and we've now officially hit the next stage of development, Alpha!

Free Weekend Systems
We will be having a Free Weekend on the 24th-26th of September and 9th-10th of October, anyone logging in during this date will have full access to the game regardless of Patreon status, and will recieve 1x Intrigue Phase 1 Booster Pack plus an additional 3x Intrigue Phase 1 Booster Packs if you are already a patreon. These rewards will be given out for each free weekend event, so be sure to play during both events to maximize your prizes.

Card Pack Systems
While opening card boosters to convert into steam cards with specific cosmetics is still being actively developed, card pack inventory systems have been added to keep all your rewards attached to your accounts. This is part of our medium term plan to allow account transfers from IW1 into IWC, an exciting step for much of our community.

Deck Builder Improvements
