April 15 | Save System Overhaul & Thor's Might

[h3]Skål, Vikings![/h3][p][/p][p]Today we want to give you a preview of what we’ve been working on for our next patch, which is scheduled to roll out on April 15th.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Save System Overhaul[/h2][p][/p][p]We have been focusing heavily on a fundamental change that many of you have requested: a complete overhaul of the Save System.[/p][p][/p][p]Up until now, the game featured only one global save file that tied your Singleplayer and Co-op progression together. In the upcoming patch, we are completely separating them. More importantly, we are separating Character saves from World saves.[/p][p][/p][p]What does this mean for you?[/p]

[p]Unlimited Slots[/p][p]You are no longer locked into a single playthrough. You can now create as many separate character and world slots as you need.[/p]

[p]Progression is tied to your Character[/p][p]Your inventory, Glory, and stats now belong to the specific character you create.[/p]
[p]Co-op Cross-World Travel[/p][p]Because characters and worlds are independent, you can take your character with loot and jump straight into a friend's world.[/p]
[p]Stable Co-op transition & Fixed Save Bugs[/p][p]We know that jumping between singleplayer and co-op could sometimes be frustrating due to a few save bugs. This overhaul resolves those issues![/p]

[p][/p][p]How to prepare for the patch[/p][p]Because we are completely changing how the game stores data, some of your progress will not transition automatically. Please read the following to avoid losing your items.[/p]

[p]Your World save (buildings, chests) will be safe.[/p]
[p]However, Character inventories may be reset during the transition.[/p]
[p]Client saves (if you were connecting to your friend's hosted co-op game) will not keep their character inventory.[/p]

[p]For safety, we suggest placing all the items from your character into chests before the patch drops on April 15th. Items stored in chests are part of the World save and will remain safe.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Mjolnir Mini Event[/h2][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Alongside the new save system, this patch will include a fun feature that allows you to easily access Mjolnir gameplay. You can frequently trigger a special mini-event where you get to smash with the power of Thor![/p][p][/p][p]Mjolnir is granted temporarily for the duration of the event and is taken back right at the end, so it doesn't affect the overall gameplay balance. The event itself has a short cooldown, letting you jump back into the action regularly.[/p][p][/p][p]Note: For this initial rollout, the Mjolnir event will be available in Singleplayer only.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Other Improvements[/h2][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]This patch will also include various fixes and improvements, new visual effects, and quality-of-life adjustments based on your feedback.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]We will share the full patch notes detailing all the tweaks when it goes live. Thank you for your continued support, and we’ll see you in two weeks![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Skål![/p][p]Blackrose Arts[/p]
