Greetings Hunters!

As you may have noticed, we recently updated the roadmap. The original road map was kind of a grab bag of different features and improvements, and after hearing your feedback on Discord, the forums and the reviews one thing became apparent. MORE CONTENT!

With that in mind we moved over to a quarterly update schedule that will allow us to bundle up lots of new stuff into bigger, more meaningful themed updates. The first of which - FROSTFANG PEAK - is available now!

We have crammed alot into this new update, so I would recommend giving the full patch notes a read, but the main additions are:

• ⛰️ NEW BIOME - Frostfang Peak! An icy tundra full of new hazards

• 🐢 NEW BOSS MONSTER - The Tetsugor! A thunder elemental giant turtle

• 🐺 NEW ENEMIES - The Vulf Pack - Including An elite variant the Dire Vulf!

• ❄️ NEW HAZARD - Blizzard! Will freeze you over time when away from a heat source

We have also added a bunch of quality of life improvements and bug fixes based on your input. Big thanks to everyone that took the time to share feedback and report bugs to us - it is extremely valuable and much appreciated!

Full patch notes can be found below, and as always, we look forward to hearing your thoughts on the game!
