Asgard's Fall — Viking Survivors News

Hey Vikings!

We’re back with a small but mighty update that improves your journey through the realms of Asgard’s Fall. With a few tweaks to prevent accidental clicks, some added clarity to your stats, and fixes to cloud save and ability issues, this patch should smooth out your raid prep just a little more.

Here’s what’s new:

• A 1.5 second input delay after leveling up to prevent accidental upgrade selections. No more misclicks mid-battle!
  
• Stat descriptions to the Web of Wyrd node tooltips for better insight into your build choices.
  
• An Ability Opacity Slider in the options menu—tweak the visuals to your liking!
  

• Legendary Warpaints now always have at least Tier 2 stats to make them feel truly epic.
  
• Increased the overall chance of rolling higher-tier stats on all Warpaints.
  

• Resolved a cloud save issue where Seidr-Tree points didn’t match the actual player level. Resetting the tree now properly grants matching points.
  
• Fixed a bug where forged abilities wouldn’t spawn as intended.
  

As always, thank you for your continued feedback and support! More updates are already brewing in the cauldron—so stay tuned, and keep slaying.

And one last thing: We’ll be sharing some in-depth details about the upcoming Warpaint system rework very soon—so keep your eyes peeled, warriors!

Great news, Vikings! Steam Cloud Save has just been activated for Asgard’s Fall and is now available for everyone! 🛡️

Just make sure to launch the game on your most up-to-date device first to avoid any potential conflicts.

Thanks for your support, and enjoy the convenience of cloud-powered Viking adventures! 💪

Hey Vikings! ⚔️

We’ve been hard at work on the next update for Asgard’s Fall, and here’s a quick sneak peek at what’s coming. From helpful new features to balance improvements and bug fixes, here’s what you can look forward to (as of today):


Small but helpful new features: You’ll now get confirmation popups before quitting or ending a run, and tooltips have been added to the compendium for easier understanding.


Lots of balancing and quality-of-life tweaks! Inventory access in the Warpaint Hut is smoother, pigment drops and level-up pacing have improved, and enemies (especially in Muspelheim) are a bit less punishing. Some Warpaints and abilities have also been rebalanced for better progression.


Several bugs have been squashed: disappearing Warpaints, hitbox issues, crashes in certain languages, and more. Warpaint placement exploits and incorrect summon indicators have also been addressed.

To all our Chinese, Japanese and Korean warriors: We've identified the issues that were causing frequent crashes—especially in the Chinese version. A fix is on the way and will be implemented as soon as possible!

[h3]!THIS UPDATE IS COMING VERY SOON![/h3]



We’re super excited about everything that’s coming and are constantly working on updates, improvements, and new content. Thanks for your support—and stay tuned, more patches are on the horizon!

The release of Asgard’s Fall has been an absolute blast, and we’re incredibly grateful for the warm welcome and excitement you've shown! But there's no rest for the weary ... we’re already back at it, working hard to make the game even better. 💪

Over the past days, we’ve watched countless streams, read through discussions, and listened closely to your feedback on Discord. It’s been incredibly helpful and encouraging! Thank you for being so passionate and vocal! 🙌

[h3]Right now, one of our main focuses is on implementing Cloud Saves—a feature that needs careful testing to ensure nothing breaks your savegames or progress. Alongside that, we’re tackling quality-of-life improvements, balancing updates, and bug fixes.[/h3]

Balancing in particular is a tricky beast. It’s a fine line between being too aggressive or too conservative, and we want to make sure we get it just right. Especially yesterday’s patch already addressed some of the reported issues, and we’re continuing to roll up our sleeves to finish the next update as soon as possible. As a two-person team, we’re fully committed to doing things properly, even if it means taking the time to do it right.

As a sneak peek: we're currently looking at progression speed and plan to tweak a few things to improve the experience for all Vikings out there. This includes slightly lowering the base difficulty for a smoother start, while also ramping up the blood sacrifice (yes, you heard right 🔥🩸) for those of you seeking a more brutal, hardcore experience.

One small heads-up: we deactivated the demo for now. We’re all-in on the full game right now. Thanks so much for your understanding!

To close things off: what a fantastic release—thank you again! We’re beyond pumped and can’t wait to shape the future of Asgard’s Fall with this amazing community, through Early Access and far beyond. 🛡️❤️
