From death life flourishes and thus the dance of fate swirls anew, are you prepared to unearth Armello's bright new beginnings? Armello is reborn on Steam, February 26th
v2.0? What's in it?!
See the website for a full feature list including patch notes, here.
How do I access Armello v2.0?
On the 26th of February Pacific Time (likely in the evening), v2.0 will go live on Steam for everyone that owns Armello. From this date onward, simply ensure that your client is up to date and you will have access to all of the juicy new features associated with v2.0.
To join in earlier, keep an eye out for the Open Beta, which will be going live later today.
Do I have to pay for v2.0?
Nope! v2.0 is a completely free update that applies to all players for no charge. This update isn’t about premium content that some can purchase, it’s an update about adding community requested features, along with others we know you’ll love, to the core game for everyone to enjoy.
Don’t worry about Skeeve’s children, they will be fine.
Dice Skins I've purchased are now available to unlock through gameplay, what gives?!
Our latest premium dice skins hit the store years ago, and we're doing our best to scale back smaller purchasable options in Armello. We think that this is the correct move and it's a better time than ever to take the plunge.
If you purchased any these, we sincerely appreciate the support and thank you for having our backs. They will remain unlocked without you having to complete the required challenges.
Will we see more DLC for Armello?
We have many stories that we want to tell, and we're not quite done tellin' 'em yet. We are very interested in adding DLC in some way or another at some stage. Naturally nothing is set in stone, until it is.
Is v2.0 coming to console?
Long story short(er), yes. We very much intend to bring v2.0 to Switch, Xbox One and PS4, though we are in the midst of sorting out resourcing and timelines. Naturally we are currently attending to the existing issues on Switch as a priority above this, but it’ll happen.
It’s less a matter of if, and more a matter of when.
Is v2.0 coming to mobile?
We would like to, though we are genuinely unsure at this time. The mobile version of Armello is an interesting beast and is very different to develop for. Crunching Armello down into those little devices is a feat that we don’t know that we can undertake for v2.0, and some of the core features, such as many of the menu overhauls, wouldn’t translate seamlessly.
We’re going to evaluate our options and let you know when we can.
When are you fixing the Switch issues?
We are working on it as we speak. In tandem with v2.0 on Steam, we are fighting to get a new build out on Switch as a priority. Unfortunately due to the nature of console patches, once we resolve the issue and test it thoroughly, we still need to go through a submission process with Nintendo. Due to that, we can’t be sure when the build will actually land in your hands.
Thank you to everyone who has reached out with more information about the crashes that you have been experiencing on Switch, hopefully we can give you some good news soon.
Why did you focus on X when I wanted Y?
Folks are naturally going to want to see all different things in a highly anticipated update like this, and whilst we try, we can’t get to everything. For this major update, we’ve attended to the very skeleton of Armello, areas that would be really meaningful for old and new players alike.
For v2.0 specifically our focus has been features surrounding quality of life, user experience and meta loop. Infrastructure like reconnection is in many cases an expectation/requirement for some players, though incredibly complex to implement. We’re proud that we can provide it.
What’s to come for Armello post-v2.0
Let's just say that we've got a trick or two up our sleeve yet.
