New Content, Features & Improvements

• A mysterious new island has emerged off the coast, illuminated by a massive beacon visible from afar. The Isle of the Fallen Stone is home to enemies ranging from levels 110 to 117, and at its heart lies a mysterious dungeon filled with secrets, hidden treasures, and dangers awaiting those brave enough to explore its depths!
• A brand-new zone is now accessible from Ashford Port. The Sunscar Canyon stretches beneath towering canyon walls and introduces a new town, fresh characters, and challenging enemy encounters designed for players between levels 120 and 127.
• Hog's Labyrinth: A wild pigsty is looking to hire you as an explorer in this new quest that will guide you toward the Sunscar Canyon!
• Tutorial Improvements: The tutorial has been reworked to be easier to follow and to better guide new players through their first steps in Eterspire.
• Quest rewards now grant experience based on the level the quest is intended for, instead of scaling indefinitely with your character’s level.

Performance Improvements

• We’ve been working closely with Unity to improve performance across the game. This patch includes the first wave of optimizations, with more coming soon.
• Maps now load significantly faster when transitioning between areas.
• Overall performance should feel smoother, especially when fullscreen menus are open.
• On mobile, the game now defaults to a 30 FPS cap to help prevent your phone from overheating and your battery from draining too quickly. You can change this in the Graphical Settings if you prefer.
• We've added a Player Visibility setting to the Graphical Settings menu:
  • This new setting allows you to limit how many other players are rendered on your screen at once. Additional players beyond that limit will appear as light orbs instead.
  • This feature is designed to significantly improve performance on lower-end devices, especially in crowded areas where rendering many characters at once can cause slowdowns.
  • On mobile, this setting defaults to displaying 5 players. It can be customized at any time in the Graphical Settings menu.

Eterspire Store

• The Lunar Celebration cosmetic set is now available, featuring limited-time Lunar New Year cosmetics, including multiple cosmetic gear sets, several cosmetic weapons, and zodiac capes! Check the Eterspire Store for more information.

Bugfixes

• Fixed several map details that players could walk through.
• Various other minor bug fixes.

Known Bugs

• For Inbuxia to re-spawn, you'll have to leave the map and enter again. We’ll be fixing this in the coming days.

Behind the Scenes

• We’re continuing the overhaul of regular mobs. Upcoming changes will introduce dodgeable attack patterns, more ranged enemies, and heavier use of status effects to make combat more dynamic and engaging. More details coming soon!
• Remember that you can check our roadmap for February, March, and April at www.eterspire.com/roadmap.
• 357 accounts have been banned for using modded or unofficial clients, which is against the Eterspire Rules.

Community

• Our Lunar New Year art contest is still underway! You have until March 3rd to submit your entry for a chance to win the top prize of 750 Crystals.
• Our Festival of Gratitude community event has ended! Over 1,500 players shared heartfelt messages of gratitude as part of their entries.
• All participants have now received their rewards. The Double EXP event will go live on the 21st and 22nd!
• As promised, below you’ll find a selection of some of the wonderful messages of gratitude we received during the event. Click to expand them!

That's it!

Thank you for reading, we hope you enjoy this update very much!

The next Eterspire update will be on March 2nd, according to our Release Schedule. Remember that Eterspire updates release on the 14th and 28th, unless that day falls on a Friday, holiday, or weekend, in which case it will be released on the next business day.

Have fun!
