Join the beta for the Immortal Update
Hi hunters! ːsmall_batː
It's been quite a while since we've chatted, and we're very pleased to announce we're rolling out an update for Fury of Dracula: Digital Edition! We've just rolled out a new public beta for Fury of Dracula: Digital Edition, giving you access to the 'Immortal' 5.0 patch for the game.
To join the beta, select Fury of Dracula: Digital Edition in your Steam library, choosing 'Properties' and then navigating to the beta menu! From there, you can opt-in to the open beta.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Because there are so many changes, updates and fixes in The Immortal Update, we're rolling this update out first as a beta. We're fully expecting there to be some bugs and issues that we haven't picked up on during our internal testing (due to the sheer number of changes we've included) so if you notice any bugs or issues in the beta version, please post them either on the Steam forums, or in the #bug-reporting channel on our official Discord!
Our team will then be able to take that list and work on polishing up this patch to roll out to the entire community.
Below is a full list of all the changes included in this beta version of the game:
