This year, you may have noticed that we are releasing fewer and fewer updates for Wild Terra. Many believed that the reason lies in our laziness or desire to close the project. In fact, the situation is diametrically opposite. Developing Wild Terra, at some point we ran into the ceiling of technology. The old engine did not allow adding something really big and new — dungeons, bosses, day-night cycle, and many other things that you and we want to add for a very long time. There was only one solution.

At the beginning of 2019, our team (at the moment there are only four sleepy, but very enthusiastic people) began the development of Wild Terra 2: New Lands. Only starting from the very beginning, it was possible to create exactly that dream game that we thought about while working on Wild Terra. A game with many features and details. We immediately decided that it would be right not to give empty promises, but first to make a fairly large part of the game, and only then show it to you. This moment has come. It’s worth mentioning right away. We do not close the first Wild Terra, this game is especially dear to us, we will continue to develop the project and delight you with updates.

The same mechanics formed the basis of Wild Terra 2: New Lands, however, there will be many more new ones in this game, and we decided to completely rework or completely abandon all the bad moments. You are waiting for epic bosses, a big whole world with PvP and PvE zones, dungeons, fishing, sea wanderings, caravans, you can give tasks to your characters during your absence, the game will have a system of fires, diseases, day and night, weather, a refined system of dominiums and castles, tournaments, completely new sieges, new professions, even more crafting and construction, and much more that we together will come up with. One of the main mechanics is New Continents.

New season. New continent. New rules.
You can live on the One Mainland - build, develop, hunt, explore PvP and PvE zones. Or you can challenge and go to New Lands — every season a new continent will be available, with a variety of biomes and inhabitants, conditions, rules and rewards upon completion. For example, you can get to the continent with a very harsh winter all year round, where all the villages were empty due to the plague, and barely surviving forced to hunt people for food.

Wild Terra 2: New Lands will be developed without investors and publishers. We will make the game exactly as we wish together. However, this approach has another side - we are very limited in funds for development. That is why we need your support.

Some screenshots:

Halloween event has been updated and will run until November 8th!
You can exchange brains for valuable rewards until November 15th.
- In the Corrupted Lands appeared The Headless Guardian, it will not be so easy to defeat him, so call your friends and get better prepared for the raid. If you still manage to defeat him, then you will have a chance to get a unique mount "Fiery Horse of Headless Guardian", as well as other, no less interesting items.
- In the “Events” section of the auction, there was a rotation of holiday dishes to better prepare for a meeting with the “Headless Guardian”.
- If you received several identical Halloween animals, now you can exchange them for "Demonic chests". The description of each animal additionally indicates how many chests can be exchanged for. Exchange is available through the menu of interaction with the item in the inventory. This function is valid ONLY for the duration of the event!
- Now "Demonic chests" can be stored in the warehouse.
- Added Halloween rarity frame for “Witch's Cloak” and other items.

New items and features:
- Items. Added Crystal Throwing Spears and Crystal Slingshots to the game. You can create them yourself or find them in the game.
- Recipes. Now experienced crafters with high intelligence can create Crystal Throwing Spears and Crystal Slingshots.
- Friends. A new tab "You are friends" has appeared on the list of friends, it shows a list of players who you are friends with. There you can remove yourself from the friends of a particular player.

Changes and balance:
- Interface. Now, when using the reset and decrease scrolls, a window appears confirming this action. In order not to accidentally reset characteristics.
- Interface. Now, in the crafting window, when you click the Create button, an item will be blocked for the duration of crafting to avoid repeated clicking and resetting the crafting process.
- Weapons. The "Cursed Knife" has the "ignore armor" parameter changed to "ignore armor absorption". Perhaps this is not the final change, at the moment this item will not work as intended by us.

Bugfix:
- Daily quests. The bug was fixed when it was impossible to complete the quest to collect dried flax and create clothes from raw skin.
- Halloween. Fixed the bug where it was impossible to remove the "Halloween Curse" with the scroll of purification or the Domestic Halloween tree.
- Interface. The bug was fixed when in the window of the list of friends, a double scrolling of the window could appear, because of which it was impossible to scroll down the list.

Event “Halloween”
