New Content, Features & Improvements

• We've reworked part of the Firefly Forest. The area is now bigger and better, improving both gameplay and overall flow!
• We've introduced new Trials so you can fight alongside your friends at more points in the game: a level 30 Trial, a level 50 Trial, a level 70 Trial, a level 80 Trial, and a level 100 Trial.
• A new beginner quest: Twisted Trials! Meet Eldia in Stonehollow so she can introduce you to Trials.
• We are introducing Game Center Achievements for iOS users. Collect over 25 achievements — including a secret, mysterious one!
• We've added a World Selection menu so you can choose which server to play on.
• We've added a slider to the Graphical Settings menu to adjust the scale of the UI.
• We've added post-processing effects to the game! They can be turned on or off from the Graphical Settings menu. Post-processing effects are on by default on High Quality on iOS devices. If your device doesn't support post-processing effects or the game performance seems to be affected, remember to check that they aren't on!
• When you open an overworld chest and receive multiple items, the modal message now lists everything you found.
• The World Map now shows the locations of Trials as well as the suggested level required to complete them.
• Increased the size of your friend list to 200 friends!
• Eterspire Infinite Deluxe players can now create up to 50 characters!
• Massive performance improvements!
• We've completed the Frozen and Bone equipment sets.
• Oh, yes... and the Legacy Shield. And maybe another surprise.

Eterspire Store

• We've given the cosmetic set banners a new coat of paint!

Bugfixes

• Fixed issues with shadows on some equipment.
• Fixed an issue where, in certain cases, other players could block your camera while talking to NPCs.
• Your character will no longer block NPCs when the camera moves to certain angles during dialogue.
• Fixed pets getting stuck on the map or appearing in the wrong places.
• Fixed certain cases where the required level to enter a hunt area was higher than the level of the hunt itself.
• Fixed a bug that could cause the game to freeze when talking to certain buggy NPCs.

Other Changes

• We've updated the gamepad mappings: Slot 3 Skill is now on Right Bumper, and Slot 5 Skill is now on Right Trigger.

Known Bugs

• Very rarely, Game Center achievements may not work correctly. We're working on a fix. If it happens, simply restarting the game should resolve the issue.

In Other News...

• We're working hard on the finishing touches for the macOS and PC releases (coming to the Mac App Store and Steam, respectively). These versions will launch on September 15th, so make sure to wishlist Eterspire on Steam before then — it would mean a lot to us!
