Dear Explorers,
Another month, another free content update. This one is all about SKELETON PIRATES. Here's what we prepared for you:
New Location: Undead Pirate Shipwreck. This is a variant of the Shipwreck where you can encounter Undead Pirates and recruit them, or do some trading.
New Recruit: Undead Pirate. Has the ability to fight when at zero health and an Ambush attack, making it perfect for combat-focused playstyles.
New Enemy: Undead Pirates. Undead skeletons that fight in groups, they can return from the dead if not killed fast enough.
New Wandering Trader type: Undead Pirate Gang. Trade for valuable goods, or engage in a friendly challenge. How intriguing!
New Weapons: Black Powder Pistol (powerful, but beware of self-stuns) and Cutlass (does extra damage when equipped by Sailor or Pirate).
This week's Club Competition reward is also fitting the update's theme: a Pirate Bandana! It's the kind of fashion item that never goes out of style.
Additionally, the update includes a number of changes and fixes — you can find the full change notes on our wiki (English only).
On the technical side, we want to higlight in particular that savegame backups are now stored in a different folder to avoid potential data loss caused by Steam Cloud (since some of you reported problems where your progress got lost). You can now find ".bak" files in C:\Users\\AppData\LocalLow\Maschinen-Mensch\Curious Expedition 2\backups (where is your Windows user name)
Adventure awaits!
