Heroes of Hammerwatch II News

First patch!

Thanks everyone for playing the game and reporting issues, we're reading your feedback and looking at the bugs. We're looking at fixing the more serious bugs as soon as possible but wanted to get a patch out quickly to address some of the simpler things people have mentioned.

* Added graphical option for diabling wind animations on foliage
* Added game option for UI scale
* Added game option for toggling to a larger crosshair
* Fixed kill elites accomplishment tracking
* Tab overlay text now shows New Game+ level
* Accomplishment tooltip now correctly shows the currently awarded stuff
* Server list now shows the NG+ and region the game is currently in
* Fixed some overlapping text issues on pick character screen
* Fixed empty effects showing up in Effects tab in Player Menu
* Fixed icons on Closed Circuit trinket and Palains Inner Flames skill
* Fixed Paladins Lay on Hands reducing in size when getting Cleaning Touch
* Added Rings of Resistance trinket set
* Lowered mana leech from Soul Anguish tavern drink
* Reduced cooldown on Wizards Haste and Meteor Shower, Sorcerers Firewall, Rogues Poison Cloud, and Paladins Judgement skills
* Increased cooldown on Warriors Totem skill
* Added evasion to Cult Assassins and Skeleton Crawlers in NG+
* Lowered requirement for the highest tier of the combo accomplishment

We've also applied a tentative fix for town progress being lost on rare occasions when hosting in multiplayer. This will at least help us identify the issue.

Roguelike ARPG Heroes of Hammerwatch 2 hits Steam, and you can try it for free

As a big fan of ARPGs like Diablo, loot-based roguelikes such as Dead Cells and Crypt of the Necrodancer, and Terraria-style explorative, gear-driven indie games, I really enjoyed the first Hammerwatch and its subsequent roguelite spin-off. Heroes of Hammerwatch 2, a sequel to that second game, has just arrived on Steam, boasting seven classes, a city builder, plenty of gear, up to four-player co-op, and potentially "infinite progression." If that sounds up your alley, you can even try it before you buy thanks to a free demo.
