- The Golden Spear melee weapon has been added, and can be found as a random drop in the Byzantine Labyrinth
- Through asset optimization, the size of the game has been reduced by half - down to 4.1gb

Experienced players can enable this for all items(not just ones you've already found) in the Gameplay Options. Note that until you've picked up an item in 0.86, it will still be considered new.
