Hey Monster Keepers, We are quite busy finishing up the game and recently we started the closed beta for the full release update. This Beta test includes all of the 101 Monsters that you will be able to fight, hatch and train at the full launch of the game. It also includes the last two remaining areas: the Abandoned Tower, the final area of the game, and a secret optional area that houses a couple super-secret Monsters. There are also a couple new features in this Beta test. If you are eligible for Beta testing, you may find instructions on our Discord channel how to access the Beta test. The first step is to join us on Discord. This Beta test will take much longer as usual, as the full release will still need quite some polishing, as well as bug fixes and balancing work. So for now, the release date is still simply "2020 Q4". For this Progress Update, we'd like to share two of the new Monsters with you.
Sutsune: This deadly vixen is fully capable of taking Monster lives as well as healing, buffing and reviving allies. She also has the unique "Blood Magic" aura, which allows any Occult- or Mage-type Monster in the party to apply Bleed stacks. Her explore ability is the new "Secret Vision" ability. We have added even more areas and treasure chests that you can discover using new late-game explore abilities like "Secret Vision"!
Vertraag: This powerful god of time is one of several optional late-game Champions that the player can challenge towards the end of the game. They are hidden all across the Sanctuary. This Champion in particular is intended to be challenged only after completing the story content of the game. All of these late-game Champions are capable of using three actions per turn instead of the usual two like other Champion Monsters! If you have played the Siralim series of Mongames, you probably already recognized Vertraag - he's a special cross-over Monster from Siralim! In turn, you may find a familiar face in the upcoming Siralim Ultimate. Thats it for now - stay tuned, there is a big announcement coming later this month!
