Dear Protectors of the Light,
The time has finally come, Aelis, The Queen of Nothing has revealed herself and she’s ready to fight back the Darkness. We’ve got our first major Content Update now available for you to play! This is the largest update for Age of Darkness to date, and includes several brand new features, a whole host of Quality of Life improvements and plenty of new bug fixes for you to enjoy!
Please be aware that some current save files may not work as intended on the new version, so we recommend that you start a new save file with v0.2.0.
As always please continue to report bugs to our Steam forums or in the bug reporting channel on our Discord, as we’re constantly monitoring those channels.
