The language update will come with some bugfixes this summer. But currently you have to be patient.

Of course we want to support more languages. Feel free to tell your friends! The more people support your language, the faster we can integrate it.

And don't forget: Become part of our community and check out our Discord!

Currently you can play Dustwind only in english - but many of you would like to have language support in your native language. Use the possibility to tell us in which language you want Dustwind. We are collecting your feedback and the most wanted languages will be integrated first :)

For our upcoming update in summer we not only want to patch some bugs but also improve your Dustwind experience. Become part of our community and join us on Discord: https://discord.com/invite/DSvj7Zf

We make it short and quick: We are very happy to get your support and so we have a little surprise for you - Dustwind is on sale until 09 May 2021!

We are still in development of the Dustwind universe. That mean exactly that a new update with some fixes and additional languages will release in summer.
