Citizens of the Suzerainverse,
Spring has arrived with a renewed sense of excitement and possibility! As many of you know, the end of March was a landmark moment for us as we released our very first story DLC, the Kingdom of Rizia! It's been an intense journey, but we are overjoyed to have finally launched it. We poured our hearts into creating this expansion and sincerely hope you enjoy exploring Rizia as much as we loved bringing it to life.
In conjunction with the DLC, we also introduced two special bundles designed to complete your experience and show your support for our universe:
Supporter Edition: This bundle allows you to fully embrace both Suzerain and the Kingdom of Rizia. It includes bonuses like the immersive soundtracks of both Suzerain and Rizia, alongside a special item, the Vulpitzer. You can find more details and purchase this bundle here.
Expanded Edition: Dive deeper into our universe with the Expanded Edition, which pairs the core Suzerain game with the Kingdom of Rizia DLC. This is perfect for those who want to experience everything our world has to offer from the very beginning. Check out this bundle here.
Supporting us through these bundles is the best way to ensure we continue to develop and expand this universe we all love.
We are immensely grateful to everyone who pre-purchased the game and bought the Rizia DLC, and the Supporter Edition. Your support has enabled many future opportunities for Torpor Games. This April, our focus has been on supporting the DLC post-launch. We have deployed five updates to address the most critical issues, enhancing the game experience and laying the groundwork for future additions. Additionally, we are expanding the Rizia achievements, which currently number over 40 in development. More fixes, minor content, and polish will be included in the upcoming 3.0.8 update.
Our team is gradually shifting from reactive fixes to proactive planning for the next steps for Rizia and Suzerain. We have prepared two important surveys that we encourage all our players to complete. Your feedback about the game and your priorities now and in the future will help us enhance both Rizia and the Suzerain Universe in the coming years.

On the mobile front, we are excited to announce our participation in the Google Indie Accelerator program, which is aiding us in tackling the specific challenges of porting Suzerain to mobile platforms. We were selected from over 1,000 applicants to be among the 60 participants. As the Suzerain Universe continues to expand, particularly with the recent 2.0 and 3.0 updates, we are addressing new technical complexities such as larger database sizes, additional maps, and more collectibles. The porting of version 3.0 and Rizia to mobile is currently in the R&D phase. Our technical and product teams are leveraging Google's support to enhance the mobile experience. Furthermore, the optimizations and improvements we are exploring could potentially boost PC performance as well, although we are cautious about committing to specific dates or timelines to avoid undue pressure on our team following a significant launch.
Lastly, we are thrilled to be participating in AMAZE 2024 in Berlin and Nordic Game 2024 in Malmö next month. We look forward to showcasing the Rizia DLC and sharing more about our developments within the Suzerain Universe. Thank you for your continued support, and we are committed to delivering game experiences you love. Please make sure to complete those surveys!
Last week we also recorded the Rizia Anthem. We're happy to share a sneak peek into our recording session! It was a beautiful moment bringing this anthem to life, and we can't wait for you all to hear the final masterpiece hear the final masterpiece when it is uploaded in the game with a future update.
Glovurius axa Rizia!
A’Morgna her Coren!
