Welcome to the 27th issue of The Archos Herald - your source for all the latest updates on Dark and Light’s development and community features!
Development Updates
The patch that we had scheduled for 2/22 was delayed for reasons that are similar to why last weeks patch was delayed.There have been quite a few things that we’ve been working on, and we want to make sure that they’re ready before releasing them out to the community. With March quickly approaching, a new Monthly Development Timeline is being worked on and will have dates for when updates are going to be released. There are a lot of big content drops coming in March, and while I can’t give all of the details, I can give some sneak peaks on what to expect.
New Air Temple
Our next big content release is going to include a new PvE experience for players to take on. Like the other areas that Adventurers were able to discover, there will be many mysteries to discover, foes to defeat, and items to create. This will be coming towards the beginning of March, and when a firm date is set, we’ll be released a more in depth look into this new addition to Archos.
Community Development Tools
The community has been asking for some time to have a set of tools that will allow them to customize the world around them. We’d like to announce that a dev kit is almost completed, and will be released towards the end of March. Again, as we get further into March, we’ll release further details on when you can expect to see this available.
A Romantic Evening Community Event
Our first community event of 2018 has come to a close, and we’d like to congratulate our winners! For this event, we changed things up a bit, and had the community vote for our first and second place winners on Facebook. Below you will see the beautiful screenshots that display how they would dine with the love of their life. As you will see, we’d all be lucky to have these individuals in our life. We’ll be reaching out to the winners shortly to set up a time when we can meet to deliver your rewards!
