Greetings, Viceroys!
We invite you to join us later today at 3:00 pm UTC on our Twitch channel for a developer livestream during which we’ll shed more light on this week’s Merchant Shipwreck Update and talk with Mikołaj - the game’s sound producer - about the sounds and music of Against the Storm:
Please make sure you’re ready for the new update and finish your current settlement before the Update goes live on Thursday (April 27 sometime between 1:00 pm and 3:00 pm UTC).
May the storm be gentle on you,
Eremite Games
HOW TO PREPARE
We release new content Updates every two weeks on Thursdays around 1 pm – 3 pm UTC. As we make multiple changes to the game’s systems, balance, and content, the game needs to force-finish any settlements that are in progress when you download the update. This aims to prevent various game-breaking bugs that could occur otherwise.
IMPORTANT: If you have a settlement in progress, it will have to be force-finished when you download the Update. You will be reimbursed with Citadel Resources but you will have to start a new settlement. Your meta progress (that is: Experience, Level, completed Deeds, unlocked Upgrades, Citadel Resources, etc.) will remain intact.
In the main menu, under the “Play” button, there’s a countdown to upcoming Updates. Please finish your current settlement before the update day if you don’t want it to be completed automatically.
