Hello, this is Kiwiwalks!
It has been over two weeks since the release of WitchSpring R! Due to the game's extensive content compared to our previous products, we were excited yet anxious before it went live. It wasn't until we received stable reviews and encouragement from everyone after the first week that we breathed a sigh of relief and sincerely thanked everyone for their support of Kiwiwalks and WitchSpring R.
During the first week online, we fixed some bugs and iterated the version quite frequently. After a brief slowdown, we have made plans for future updates and hope to share them with you as soon as possible.
Regarding game DLC and future updates
About Costumes
We have prepared various styles of clothing for Pieberry since the beginning. As mentioned earlier, there are also some new costumes that are currently in QA phase and are expected to go on sale as paid DLC within the next 1-2 months. You can have a peak at one of the costumes from the following pictures.
The new paid DLC costumes will consist of two sets of clothing for both younger and grown-up Pieberry, so you can see two different clothes based on the same design concept.
We hope you will enjoy the new look and charm of Pieberry with these additional costumes!
About NG+ mode
We noticed that many players are asking about this feature. However, we've never worked on implementing an NG+ system before, so the workload is hard to estimate. We also noticed that most players are asking for this feature mainly to complete all achievements and collections after the main story, so we are considering a more suitable way to satisfy these demands.
Oh, and just a note, you can also go back to your older "saves" to complete achievements.
If there are other reasons or demands for requiring this feature, please feel free to email us or leave a message on the official Discord, thank you!
About new content after "the end"
Like other WitchSpring games, WitchSpring R was initially designed to have "an ending".However, thanks to everyone's love and support, we're preparing a piece of free additional story content; but the preparation time will be relatively long (as before). We're aiming for an update at 2024 Q1 for now. More details will be shared in the future dev logs.
Regarding console versions
Besides the PC version, we also plan to create a console version of WitchSpring R. We're currently testing and preparing for the port, and if everything goes smoothly, we expect to complete the work in 2024 H1. There's also a plan to make a physical deluxe version, similar to WitchSpring 3: Refine.
Stay tuned for more information！
Finally, if you encounter any issues in the game, please don't hesitate to reach out to us through our official Discord or email. We are also preparing for more upcoming community events, so stay tuned!
Thank you!
