Card Unlocks Update & Looking Ahead
This update is a mix of demo content and progress on the game's full version. Take a peek at what's coming in the full release—or find out why it's worth revisiting the demo.
[h2]Card Unlocks (part of the demo)[/h2]
Some familiar cards are now part of a new unlock system — giving seasoned players something fresh to chase, and newcomers a smoother learning curve. Each locked card has its own unique requirement, turning unlocking them into a game of its own. Head to the Collections menu to track your progress and see what it takes to unlock them all.
[h2]New Yellow Runes (part of the demo)[/h2]
We're done implementing Yohlon, the Turtle Clan's master ranger, a hardened scout who thrives in exploring the ever-shifting desert.
Yohlon won't be part of the demo, but here's a look at his attacks and skills.
We have been working on a new biome, the caverns. Like the canyons, it's a 3-battles-in-a-row area with a special reward on completion. As expected, it has its own mobs and bosses! This will not be included in the demo for the foreseeable future.
