Unit Creator BETA (Windows only) Patch 1

[h3]The response to the beta has been amazing! We are reading all of your feedback and bug reports and are working hard to get the full update out to everyone and on all platforms soon. [/h3]

[h2]Patch Notes:[/h2]


  • Fixed some issues with UI.
  • Added missing icons.
  • Changed how units are spawned when testing expensive units.
  • Fixed crash that sometimes happens when making a unit with a rider.
  • Removed props and horse armor.


Landfall has been building relationships with other Game Studios including an indigenous company from Aotearoa (New Zealand). During the process of building the Unit Creator assets we have been learning how to represent other peoples and cultures respectfully and in a way that makes the world a better place. With this in mind, we have removed some assets for review.

If the unit you have created is affected by this the clothing or props will not appear, we trust that you can find a replacement among the more 1000+ clothes and weapons in the Unit Creator.

[h3]How to access the beta:[/h3]

  • Find the game on your game list.
  • Right-click on the game and choose properties > betas.
  • Choose public_beta in the menu (no password needed).


[h3]Some facts to keep in mind:[/h3]

  • This beta is Windows only as we want to focus on finishing the whole update for all platforms.
  • The first beta announcement has a Steam end date on the 30th of December - this is not correct as we will end the beta once the update is released - we currently don't know which date that will be.
  • You will be able to save your units but you will not be able to share them with others during the beta - but this will be possible when we release the update.
  • There are some clothes and weapons not currently available in the beta build that will be available later.
  • We’re looking into how to make the workshop better so it’s currently disabled.
  • It’s a beta - so a lot of things can change before the full release of the update.



We’re currently running the beta on Steam only but the full update will be released on Epic and Xbox.

If you have any questions or feedback please post them in the steam forums or email info@landfall.se

The estimate is still for us to release the full update for the Unit Creator sometime in Q4 (October-December) but this may change at any time.
