Voids Vigil News

Welcome back Voidseekers to another Machina upda.. oh wait that's not quite right. Machina Monday will have to wait this time, instead the content update will be coming next Monday (10th) along with the Voids Vigil full release.

The full release will contain the complete Campaign mode, new classes, an ultimate giga weapon, as well as all the usual Machina bits and bobs and bug fixes including some long awaited Clashful Cards upgrades.

So not long to wait now until the Void shall fully gape for you.. and if you have any feedback, bug reports, or bright ideas for neat gameplay stuff you might want to mention it now and I might be able to sneak it in this week. And feel free to go nuts breaking the game as the Leaderboards will be wiped for the full release.

. .. the void pauses to consider your fate .. .
