Hello everyone,
Here’s a teaser for the upcoming Interloper release! (link to higher resolution). We are testing release candidates for Interloper A, A1, B, B1, B2. We’ll have news on Interloper C, C1, and D when we put out the first set of maps (they’re close!), as well as details for what is left on our to-do list for Nihilanth and Endgame.
We also want to use this mini update to highlight some of the work we have been doing to the already released chapters based on the beta feedback (still more to implement). We’ll continue to update the maps as the team and community finds issues.
