Sunfire and Moonshadow & Season Pass are Live!
Xeryn is about to become even more captivating as we proudly announce the release of our highly anticipated expansion: Sunfire and Moonshadow, featuring a vast new region to explore. As of now, it is available to the public on all major PC platforms and it can be purchased as part of our Season Pass, which includes two future DLCs. Check out the trailer here: [previewyoutube=KgoVBmy15zw;full][/previewyoutube] Brace yourselves for adventures filled with treacherous challenges and untold secrets waiting to be unveiled. A swathe of new settlements, new enemies to conquer, new stories to be a part of, a large cast of characters, and new quests to complete through which you can make your mark on the continent await you. Thats not all, however, as the Bronze Desert introduces a central conflict involving three new factions the Ahari, the Chimera Legion, and the Handjari. The expansion features content approaching half the size of the core game. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2297000/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/1762031/ It is also important to note that weve just done away with the in-game campaign time limit (those elusive 11ish years). This became necessary because theres just so much to do now (with all the free DLCs and now the expansion) that it would have created a requirement from players we felt would be against the slow and methodical style of Vagrus. Unfortunately, expanding the time limit was not a good option either, especially considering future content. More on this in the article we penned on the issue. We have also hammered out quite a number of issues in our latest update. Now let's jump into the details! Important Note: Considering the extent of the improvements, there is little to no chance that we broke nothing in the process. Assume that we did not want to make anyone's life harder. If you see something amiss, please flag it to us using the usual channels, like the inbuilt reporting tool (F1 button), forums, and our Discord server. --------------------------------------------------

New and Updated Game Design (General) :shiny:

- Camp defense Fighter requirements were reduced for all voluntary crew members.
- Outposts were reworked in a major way (see below).
Outpost-related Changes :sun: :moon:
- A brand new Outpost User Interface was added
- Warehouse: you can store your Goods and Equipment at your Outpost
- Statio: your own mansio at your Outpost where you can store your Mounts and Beast, as well as switch between beast types

- The text overlapping on Crew Combat buttons has been fixed.

A vast continent is yours to explore, filled with unique locations, strange factions, lurking dangers, and a lot of characters you can interact with. In order to punish the Empire for their sins a thousand years ago, the Elder Gods manifested themselves in the world, letting loose powers that ended up devastating it. Following this Calamity, the Empire was slow to rebuild and became a dark caricature of its former image. The continent is now a wasteland, riddled with arcane anomalies, twisted monsters, and undead.
