Wild Assault Early Access: Hotfix & Balancing Patch Notes – April 27

Hello Wild Ones!

Since the launch of Wild Assault Early Access, we have been grateful for your enthusiastic feedback and participation in our surveys. Our team has carefully reviewed your input and worked tirelessly to address the most pressing concerns. Today, we are excited to share the first batch of balance adjustments based on your suggestions.

In this update, we are introducing the first wave of balance adjustments for Valiants and weapons, taking a step toward healthier long-term match dynamics.

Due to the tight development schedule, our primary focus has been on bug fixes, resulting in delayed balance adjustments. We sincerely apologize for any negative impact on your gameplay experience. As compensation, we will distribute Weapon XP Card III *50 to all players.

Ingame matches won't be affected by this update. However matchmaking may not function normally during the process. Please exit the game, complete the update, and launch your game client again.
