HIGHLIGHTS
☆ Universal Characters
- Pre-Existing Campaign characters will be automatically converted to UNIVERSAL CHARACTERS which you can bring into your friend’s hosted games.
- Characters that you have created on a friend’s hosted session will be available to COPY into a universal character slot when you join your friend’s session.
- When you join your friend’s hosted session, RUNE II will ask you if you want to use this legacy character as one of your universal characters. This is a one time process.
- If you have no free slots, you must replace an existing character.
- In PvP modes, you will use your universal character’s appearance ONLY. No levels, gear, or skills will carry over.
☆ Keybindings and Controller Remapping
- Added the ability to remap gamepad buttons
- Added a system that restores missing input values automatically so users no longer need to manually delete their input.ini files to reset inputs.
- Fixed inputs that could not be remapped
- Fixed resetting defaults inputs would corrupt input axis values
☆ Free Wolf Gear and Weapons DLC
- As a special thanks for all the feedback you’ve given us since RUNE II: Decapitation Edition’s launch, all players can now claim the FREE Wolf Armor and Gear set DLC.
- Please keep the steam reviews and feedback coming! We are actively looking at them and improving RUNE II daily!
