​To the Community: Thank You! 

We wanted to dedicate a special shout out to all players that have been accompanying and supporting us during the entire Early Access ✨. Your feedback, ideas, and bug reports have been crucial for improving the game until today. 

If you haven't already, we would deeply appreciate it if you would leave your thoughts in a review on Steam or whatever platform you purchased the game on. Reviews can make a huge difference for the game as it releases into 1.0 by helping people decide if ENDLESS Legend 2 is for them.  

What's new in 1.0? 

The list of bug fixing is huge, but we know that is not the shiny content you want to hear about. But no worries, let me share the big content we are dropping today with you, like 3 new playable factions 😎 

SANDSHAPERS 

The Sandshapers are expansionists and terraformers. They want to claim as much land as they can to empower their Wishes and fuel their economy, while turning it into desert Sand tiles that are less useful to other empires. 

You can check more details in the dedicated blog 👇 

ORDER OF ZELAVAS AND SEVERED CLAWS 

Two Rogue Factions are dropping today! 

For those of you arriving today, Rogue Factions are fully playable variants of existing major factions that have broken away from their parent faction.    

They are built around the same core gameplay affinity but offer a different experience thanks to a set of new traits that encourages them to focus on different strategies. 

THE MANGROVE OF HARMONY 

FINALLY! 10 months ago, we started a contest to co-create a new minor faction with the community, including both the gameplay and the art aspects of the minor faction. Now it is time for you to discover what the community created. 😁 

Community Consumable – Apotheosis Dirge 

Allow me to take a quick trip to the past ⏲. Before Early Access (a long time ago), we introduced the Insiders Program,  a group of dedicated players who helped us test a beta version of the game. Thanks to all of you who participated and showed interest in joining the group 👏 

While running the program, we decided to co-create a special consumable...  

​

Apotheosis Dirge: If this kills an enemy, a copy of the enemy is spawned with 50% HP that is under your control.
You will keep that spawned unit after the battle.

Apart from these elements, there are LOTS of fixes, but to avoid creating a mega blog, you can check the 1.0 path notes.

What’s next for the game? 

​

Do not rush! We are just releasing today 😖 No worries, it is normal that you are wondering about the next steps for the game! Right now, we are all focused on fixing any critical issues the community might encounter and seeing the initial reaction. 

Even if we have some sort of internal roadmap we prefer to see the initial feedback to adapt the content that will arrive in the game later. 

We will try to share an official roadmap later.
