Last year we started working on this new update to finally add official Steam Deck support. While that wasnt too hard (it basically worked fine on Steam Deck already, but we optimized a few things for usability there) we decided to wait with release of the new update until the Switch port was done. That way we were able to integrate the performance optimizations (as far as possible, some fixes were more invasive and are only relevant on Switch anyway) into all other platforms as well. Now its time to launch the update, even a few weeks before the Switch version will launch. You can find the full changelog below as usual. In general you can expect a few optimizations for Steam Deck, general performance improvements and also a few bugfixes here and there.

Elemental War 2 offers you the popular tower defense feeling combined with innovative game mechanics: as soon as you defeat an elemental - a particularly strong enemy that will demand everything from you - you'll receive its element stone, which you can use to build new defense towers. As you keep collecting elements, you'll always have new levels and tower combinations at your disposal.
Only if you skillfully combine the different towers and make use of their advantages will you be able to stand up to the monster hordes. Through in-game side quests, you'll also unlock items that further enhance the abilities of your towers or decisively weaken your opponents at just the right time!
