Greetings Soulslingers!

As announced last week, update 0.718 for Soulslinger: Envoy of Death is now available! This update in general is about listening to your feedback, and make the game the most enjoyable experience possible.

As of now you can interrupt reloading and swap weapons, the weapon handling, accuracy and animations were improved vastly, new arenas have been added to the Land of Memories and the Outskirts, new conversations with NCPs have been added in Haven, and VFX got polished and cleaned up or removed (when unncessary). Furthermore we've added new, higher quality ones for the sake of easier readability (clarity) of the battlefield.

The 0.718 update brings many more new features, balance changes, improved features and bugfixes; here is the complete changelog:

• Added new sound effects for Voidcasters, Void Harbingers, Bandits and the Revenant Sheriff

BALANCE:

• Fixed a bug where crates would be floating above the ground
• Fixed a bug where the battle shrine would hide the ability icon from the bottom-right when upgrading a skill
• Fixed a bug where replacing the currently equipped Wraithshot would cause the bullet ability to remain inactive
• Fixed a bug where the second ability (spell) was cancelled because of switching weapons
• Fixed a bug where the Sentinel would just get stuck and not fight
• Fixed a bug where opening the Workshop while leaving Haven would lock the game
• Fixed a bug where using melee while aiming down sights would cause weird animations
