Relic Abyss Early Access delayed to February 2026.

[p][/p][p][/p][p]Greetings, everyone![/p][p][/p][p]We are delaying the Early Access release of Relic Abyss to February 2026. [/p][p][/p][p]We played the current build and have felt the amount of content in the game will not be satisfactory to players compared to our demo.[/p][p][/p][p]We want to ensure the value will suffice the price of the game. So we'll be working hard to add more meaningful content.[/p][p][/p][p]This will also give us a chance to do a more in depth quality assurance for the final product as well as planning out a proper marketing strategy for the game's release.[/p][p][/p][p]Our country is also currently being ravaged by one of the largest Typhoons in the world. It may take us a while to recover as previous Typhoon last year cut our internet, power, and water for a total of two weeks. As of writing this, our power currently has been cut due to the strong winds and heavy rain.[/p][p][/p][p]We apologize for the sudden change and we hope that you still support us during our new release date.[/p]

Post Next Fest demo fixes. Equipment Smithing rework - Relic Abyss v 0.4.72

[p]Hi gang! We made two updates the past week that fixes the broken equipment loot and have reworked the smithing system. During our Next Fest build, I've added more stats to the loot drops but used a 10x multiplier while testing. I've left it out during the Next Fest build that's why the equipment were so overpowered that it broke the game.[/p][p][/p][p]While we won't be deleting the obtained equipment, we might consider not carrying over the item saves to the EA release build. We'll try to give an special reward on release to compensate this. I'm terribly sorry![/p][p][/p][p]Here are the patch notes:[/p]
  • [p]Fixed overpowered loot drops from 10x multiplier to 1x[/p]
  • [p]Loot bonus stat amount are now chance based vs always getting 4 every time ie. on legendaries.[/p]
  • [p]Loot bonus stats are now percentage based only.[/p]
  • [p]Reworked Smithing system so that bonus stats from equipment from both items will carry over to the result item.[/p]
  • [p]Fixed equipment not displaying proper values. Previously on the UI it added extra values based off it's base value even if it's not the intended feature.[/p]
  • [p]Added UI support to 16:10 aspect[/p]
  • [p]Fixed: Chest opening not selecting open button when enabled[/p]
  • [p]Improved Results UI relic navigation.[/p]
  • [p]Fixed: Soft Lock when you're on the dialogue options and have selected the dialogue box.[/p]
  • [p]Fixed: Defeating Mostra on high difficulties crashes the game.[/p][p][/p]
