We’ve been busy, working on our latest patch, and we’re super happy to tell you that Update 0.9.02 has an Alpha we will soon be rolling for all of you to try out. The most significant piece of news? Controller support! Finally, you’ll be able to play Immortal Life with your favorite controller, but there’s a ton more content and stuff coming on this new update like new personal stories for some characters and new missions for the main quest. Please, keep in mind that this alpha update will be available to those that download it on purpose and that it won’t have English or Japanese support. To enjoy the final version, you will have to wait just a little bit longer, while we polish all the bugs and refine the overall experience later. Without further ado, here’s a list of changes: [h2]New Content [/h2] [list] [*] Fully Controller Support. [*] Main Quest Extended.

[/list] [h2]HOW TO JOIN THE ALPHA BRANCH OF IMMORTAL LIFE [/h2] [h3]Step 1: For your safety, start backing up your save files! [/h3] This is the most important step as the files of the Alpha branch that will be saved in your Cloud storage will replace those you saved locally, damaging them permanently in the process. To prevent this, disable the Cloud Saving feature and visit the following path to copy the folder with your local saves to another safe location in your computer. Don’t switch to the Alpha test before taking this step. Save Path: [Steam Library Path]/common/一方灵田/SavesDir/[A folder with numbers in its name] [h3]Step 2: Switch the branch from your Steam library [/h3] [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//36287417/b295974cd6008e78e29206d5ba2aa916cbe14310.png[/img] [olist] [*] Right-click Immortal Life in your Steam Library. [*] Choose Properties… [*] Choose BETAS tab in the Properties menu. [*] Enter the code, zhongtian2022 and click Check Code. [*] Click the select button and choose alpha – alpha test to activate the new branch. [*] You want to switch back? No problem, click the drop-down menu again and choose none – it will take you back to the Default branch. [/olist] We hope that you’re as excited as us! And those of you who don’t speak Chinese, please wait patiently. We’ll be working on integrating the new content on the main build of the game! Thank you for staying with us! YiFang & 2PGames
