New Powers Update Patch Notes [615703]

New Powers Update

Thanks to everyone who participated in the New Powers beta! It was hugely helpful. We hope that you continue to join us and share your feedback over all of our future beta periods.

With these new Powers, we take another step towards more variety from one run to the next, as well as providing some Powers which require a bit less "combo" thinking to achieve success with. They certainly can combo very well, but they should provide value to players of all types! We have more plans for furthering that variety, so please stay tuned.

Our team is hard at work creating the next Hunt (Bonechill Quarry) for you and your friends to enjoy which will be coming soon! This will include a completely new environment, a new Boss Rot and Rot Miniboss, new enemies, new armour and weapons, more new Powers, new decorations, bug fixes, and a familiar friend who has found their voice.
