Hello Knights! We're getting closer and closer to 1.0 but before that drops, we have a couple more updates for you! For 0.11, we've improved the matchmaking for multiplayer games, added a bunch of new languages, balanced the relics system, buffed some skills, adjusted the weapon unlocks, and fixed some pesky bugs. [h1]Discord Rich Presence[/h1] Something we've wanted to improve on was the ability for players to quickly find teammates when looking for multiplayer games and we felt like implementing Discord's Rich Presence was a useful addition. [previewyoutube=Ss-IvNjl7JQ;full][/previewyoutube] To complement Rich Presence, we've also created special channels and roles available to members of our official Discord server. [h1]Localizations[/h1] You've asked and we've listened! Ember Knights is now available in the following languages: Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese (Brazilian), Russian, and Spanish!

If you see any problems and would like to help us improve the quality of the localization, please let us know via our dedicated localization channel in our official Discord server located [url=https://discord.gg/emberknights]here![/url][/i] [h1]System Improvements[/h1] With 1.0 around the corner, it's important that we balance each system to where it should be for the final version of the game. For this update, we've adjusted the relics, skills, and weapon unlocks. Please see below for the complete list of patch notes!
