Hey hunters, Today is our 1-year Anniversary! Have a trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwcJfie3uAI It’s been an amazing journey. Since August 18th, 2015, we’ve had 800,000 unique Hunters. We have updated the game 14 times and it more than doubled in size. You have created mods, fan art, and kept this community alive even if it’s a small free game with no big ambitions - until now, that is. To celebrate this special little game’s birthday, we have prepared many special surprises. The first one: we are announcing the sequel: “Relic Hunters Legend”. We have been secretly working on it since last year with the help of our new team member Abraão, and we will reveal more in the weeks to come. You can check out the info about the game and stay in the loop for future news here: www.relichunters.com.br/legend (Yes, it will have online multiplayer, calm down ^^) Second surprise: a massive overhaul of Relic Hunters Zero. We are calling it “Year 2” now because so much has changed. You can see the full patch notes below, but the most important changes are a Daily Run mode, a big performance increase, and a redesign of Endless Mode with new features, enemies and balance. Third surprise (ok, this one is not as much of a surprise): the Community Pack. We’ve been teasing the idea of taking some of the best mods you’ve created and curating them into a slick, “official” package. You seem to really like this idea! Unfortunately we previously had some technical issues related to video memory that made it unfeasible. Now it is not :-) So we’re happy to announce our upcoming Community Pack #1! If your creation is not featured below, fear not - we will have more packs in the future. Also, if you are just getting into Relic Hunters modding, now is a great time to start - would love to see your work featured on Pack#2! * New hunter: Scar the Bounty Hunter by ThoBeo http://www.relichunters.com.br/forums/discussion/157/scar-the-bounty-hunter-new-character-idea-update/p1 * New hunter: Sheriff Goku by ThoBeo http://www.relichunters.com.br/forums/discussion/198/sheriff-goku-here-come-the-law-new-hunter-mod/p1 * New hunter: Lizzy the Lazy Sniper by Sempiternelee http://www.relichunters.com.br/forums/discussion/199/lizzy-the-lazy-sniper-freezing-weapons-update-1#latest * New hunter: Shovel Knight by RavenJuice http://www.relichunters.com.br/forums/discussion/2165/shovel-knight-as-playable-character#latest * New weapon: Carmelita's Shock Pistol by UncleHerman http://www.relichunters.com.br/forums/discussion/2221/carmelita-s-shock-pistol-in-relic-hunters-zero#latest * New weapons: Laser Gun and Dubstep Gun by Deng http://www.relichunters.com.br/forums/discussion/129/laser-gun-and-dubstep-gun#latest * New weapons: Chrome Commander and Emerald Lightning Pistols by DarkTailss http://darktailss.deviantart.com/art/Relic-Hunter-Guns-562891218 We are getting in touch with the creators to get everything sorted out.
