Were on a roll with updates and we have this amazing community to thank for it. Due to your constructive feedback, weve been able to implement some real improvements and theres A LOT more in the pipeline. Heres a summary for whats coming in Patch 1.04:

Journal Tutorial Patch

The game is chock full of main/sub quests and its very difficult to remember all of these. Weve heard feedback that gamers were unable to find the To-Do List. As such, weve added a tutorial which will reveal itself after Lanvils interrogation.

Combat Fast-Forward

Perhaps the most exciting new feature! When you hold the Shift button during Combat, the pace of the encounter will speed up.

Recruiting Board

New recruits will populate the board more quickly. Youll never have to worry about a lack of recruits now.

Equipping Relics

Relics can now be equipped and unequipped on the field. This is primarily to allow players to dismiss a companion in order to bring on a new field hire.

Chapter 7 Patch

Some players reportedly got frozen in place here after entering the 2nd floor. Weve implemented a fix for that! ///

Upcoming

Version 1.05 is already in the works and, as weve mentioned in the previous updates, we are going to be implementing new camp nodes between neighborhoods. Were also updating the recruiting wall so you will be able to see comrade stats before you hire them! Were paying particularly close attention to community strategy around party combinations and relics. This will help us gauge balance as we discuss new ideas to implement. Stay tuned and, as always, your feedback is very much appreciated!
We will continue diligently fighting bugs by moonlight, and improving the game by daylight! -Team Devespresso Out!

The King of Shades has cursed the great city of Icenaire. Now cast under a permanent blight of frost fall, its former residents have returned from the dead as mad Wraiths. Survivors take refuge deep underground where they lead a desperate campaign against this unearthly power. Woefully outmatched, they are forced into hiding as the King of Shades amasses an army of the undead above them. One fateful day, a mysterious stranger appears in the city with an enchanted vambrace. She may now be their only hope…



You are Evelia Lyric, bearer of the Aetherbrace and the only human capable of entering Icenaire. The survivors now look to you as their best hope against the King of Shades. Only one problem...you’re woefully outmatched, and survival is not guaranteed.

Vambrace: Cold Soul is a narrative-driven game filled with memorable characters, brutal challenges, and deep strategy. To succeed, you must choose perceptive party leaders, camp to recuperate, navigate strange encounters, and survive deadly combat. Will you scavenge for supplies to sell or use them to craft new items for your next expedition? The surface of Icenaire is cold and unforgiving. So, prepare your party well before departing...lest you join the cursed city's undead.

In this game, the difference between life and undeath all comes down to good planning and smart tactics!
