Update – New Locations, Quests, Animations & More!
Hello everyone!
Welcome to another Bandit the Game update! This time, we're bringing more life to the city, expanding the Quarantine Zone with new locations and quests, and improving NPC behaviour.
Here's what's new:
🏙️ City Improvements
New NPC Animations – Added new animations to the first city district, making the area feel more alive and immersive.
NPC Behaviour Improvements – Added safeguards to prevent NPCs from getting stuck in their last activity after loading a save. Previously, NPCs following their daily routines could sometimes stop talking or moving around the city. This fix currently applies to the first city district.
🗺️ Quarantine Zone Expansion
2 New Locations – Added two new locations to the Quarantine Zone.
2 New Quests – Added two new quests to explore in the Quarantine Zone.
Mercenary Animations – Mercenaries in the Quarantine Zone are no longer standing around idly. They've received new animations to make the area feel more active.
New Book – Added a new collectible book: Erik the Conqueror – The Shield That Survived Dragonfire. You can find it in one of the newly added locations in the Quarantine Zone.
Compatibility: The new NPC animations should also work with existing save files.
🛡️ New Stealth Restrictions
Watchtower Restricted Area – Added a restricted area around the watchtower in the first city district. If your Sneak skill is too low while sneaking through this area, the guards will detect you and attack.
I plan to introduce similar restricted areas in other locations in future updates.
🏠 Additional Changes from the Previous Update
I forgot to mention two small changes in the previous patch notes:
Suspicious House – Added a new location marker to the city map. This location will be connected to a future quest, which is coming soon.
Abandoned House – Renamed the existing city location from "House" to "Abandoned House".
🔜 What's Next?
The next update will focus on the Upper City and the Palace.
Thank you for continuing to follow the development of Bandit the Game! I hope you'll enjoy exploring the new locations and discovering the latest additions.
See you in the next update!
