Hi Monarchs!

We wanted to share some of the things we collected from your feedback so far that we will try our best to get in the first big update. This is planned to release early next year (2019). Even if some don't make the first Update we will get them in at some point. We have two big free content updates planned for 2019 and one more big QoL in 2019.

• Improve Winter experience
  
• Improve Hermit behavior
  
• Improve Ninja's value
  
• Make switching Steeds less costly
  
• Increase Pikemen health i.e. how many successful attacks they can perform before spear breaks)
  
• Add a way to recover lost gems
  
• Improve initiating Coop splitscreen experience
  
• Improve outer wall units shop location i.e. shops move outward with expansion of walls.
  

We will continue to add to this list, once we've reached our bandwidth we'll add more to the next big update.

• Introduce the Challenge Islands
  
• Add SteamOS (Linux) Support
  
• Add Original Ruler DLC for all owners of Kingdom: Classic and Kingdom: New Lands
  
• Fix Knights/Samurai going on the boat instead of attacking the portal.
  

FYI - critical issues like corrupted saves will be treated as high priority and planned to be patched as quickly as possible.

Legends tell of a group of isles ripe with hidden treasure, mysterious artifacts from a long ago civilization, and the abundant resources necessary to foster a burgeoning Kingdom. Venture forth, fortify your domain, and endeavor to tame these strange lands for who knows what lurks in the dark neighboring forests beyond your borders…

Welcome to Kingdom Two Crowns, the most ambitious entry in our celebrated Kingdom series which has been enjoyed by over 3 million monarchs. A brand new campaign mode, exclusive mounts and NPCs, and an entirely new feudal Japan-themed setting with its own unique NPCs and strategies are just a taste of what this latest installment has to offer. And for the first time, you can play Kingdom alongside a friend as we introduce co-op to the experience.

Kingdom was the first game we ever published, a simultaneously wonderful and terrifying experiment as we ventured into indie publishing for the first time, and being able to continue building upon that inaugural success years later has been a dream. We hope that you’ll see the careful crafting and diligence we’ve put into Kingdom Two Crowns, it has a special place in our hearts and our hope is that it finds a little corner of your own.
