We’re thrilled to announce that the latest content update, 0.11, is now live!
This update focuses on polishing the experience with numerous fixes and tweaks, but the spotlight is on the addition of Chinese and German localization, a brand-new RPG-styled hero selection screen, and the introduction of class Traits.
Hero Selection
To enhance the immersive fantasy experience of Heroes, we’ve reworked the character selection screen! You can now view your heroes in fully 3D, bringing the RPG vibes to life, similar to what you’d find in MMORPGs. Since Darfall blends city-building and RPG gameplay, we could never miss this feature!
(Huge props to our talented artist Jakub for making such an fantastic scene)
The screen will be improved with few more details and animations as we will near the full release this year.
Class Traits
Each hero now comes with a unique trait tailored to their class. In the Demo, this is available for the Mage, Ardan.
You can now experience his Energy Overflow trait: locate an Energy Fountain on the map, stand inside it, and charge up the buff to its full duration.
With the Energy Overflow buff, Ardan’s energy capacity doubles, enabling him to unleash a devastating barrage of magic on invaders, or the occasional unlucky orcs.
