Greetings, might gladiators! In this week's patch, a small but often requested feature arrives in the game - the ability to further alter your gladiator's appearance during your quest. Visit the tavern and and click on the Alterations button, and you'll be able to change your hair, skin and even eye colour to whatever you wish! There's always a cost for expensive dyes such as these - it will cost you stars to change your appearance each time.
Also in this patch, two new arenas are unlocked - Drakondier and Ettania, as well as their respective arena champions. There's some increased damage for base class abilities, and new loading screens between long transitions in the game. I want to thank all the fans who provided fan art to the game for these screens, they look awesome!
Next week I will be looking to add more variety to the combat in arenas - new rules such as 'no axes', 'first blood wins' , that kind of thing.
Cheers, Oliver Joyce
