Hi folks, as promised before, today is the day we release update 1.0.10 AKA Jotuns. As you can guess from the update title, we have new bosses! But before disclosing more details about what's new in this big free update, Id like to focus on some other game news first. First of all: Niffelheim (single player mode only) was released on 20th September (a few days ago) on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch platforms. Over the past six months, we have been working on game balancing and porting to these consoles. So now feel free to congratulate us and play the game on your console. The console release includes the latest update by default. Also, thanks to the active member of the Niffelheim community Brechler Zsolt, the game is fully translated into Hungarian. Kudos to Brechler for his work and support!

And now - more news about the latest update.

1. Weve added new bosses who will attack castles the mighty Jotuns! 2. Also added Repair Kits to allow you to repair currently equipped items. 3. Added scrolls of weapons and ammunition- these are needed to craft cool weapons and equipment. Certain bosses will drop these scrolls. 4. The balance of all weapons has been tweaked. 5. The balance of almost all mobs has been changed. Now the mobs will appear stronger so you should definitely think twice before start picking a fight. 6. Now almost all armor (except for Hunters Armor) can be crafted in workshops. However, youll need scrolls for cool swag. 7. All weapons can be crafted in workshops. Youll need scrolls for cool weapons. 8. The strength of weapons and tools has been increased. 9. Later on, in the game youll find it very challenging to kill bosses without potions. (I was able to do this eventually, but definitely not during the first attempt). 10. The chance of getting rare stones from chests of bosses has been adjusted. Some stones will only appear near spiders, some objects - near trolls only, and the witchs skull can only be found by the undead. 11. Alchemy and kitchen recipes have been changed. Now you will be able to cook pig meat from the first level. Crafting rare potions will now become simpler. As mentioned above you will need A LOT of potions. 12. Wave timing for mobs and ultimatums, as well as the day duration, has been changed. The dynamics are slightly improved. 13. Over time, new items appear in the store. 14. Ore generation has been improved. (Though titanium ore was rather rare during my latest walkthrough, thats random parameters for you) 15. Character development has been balanced. 16. Additional fixes for grave loot and various flora. The chance to get a Hare amulet is at 100%. Some achievements can now be unlocked faster. 16. Various bug fixes and minor tweaks. Well, are you ready to check out the new update?
I completed the new version of the game in 65 days. It was quite interesting and difficult, even for me! :) Definitely worth checking out! Especially since many of you play Niffelheim way better than us. I will create a topic in the community and post a screenshot of my result. I encourage you to post your results there, but no cheating, please!
