2023 might be winding down, but Wayfinder isn't! In fact, we're happy to announce that our largest game update ever will be hitting soon in December. [b]This update contains over 2,000 fixes and changes to the game and brings us from v0.1 to v0.2![/b].

Some of these 2,000 changes include: - Performance + UI improvements - Weapon + stats rebalance - Ability to earn cosmetics in-game - New customization options - Senja rework - Ranged rework and so much more! Today we'll preview some of those changes below. [h2][b]Brand new customization! [/b][/h2] ⚔️Fully Customizable Weapon Dyes 🔥Two new Wayfinder Dye Slots (including Heroic Kyros' FX!)

XP caches will be enabled in v0.2! So why not use them?! Character and weapon caches can fast track leveling those new Wayfinders and weapons! [previewyoutube=MLup2TQlU90;full][/previewyoutube] [h2]New Music + combat sounds 🎧 [/h2]Immerse yourself in the serenity of the snow laden Highlands and Skylight. New festive music, as well as improved real-time audio feedback when in combat so you can actually hear crits, parries and more! (Shout out @Koud3x for the rad art! [previewyoutube=tUxCQ2OBiSc;full][/previewyoutube] For those that may have missed it, this jump to v0.2 is not Season 2. We are pausing our Seasons as we go ahead and reassess our release calendar as we take over the publisher role. [b]This doesn’t mean that content is drying up, in fact the opposite.[/b] We won’t be sticking to a seasonal “wrapper” for content and instead can release things faster when we believe things are ready for players vs waiting to put everything under the season banner.

As we transition from developer to developer + publisher there will be quite a few changes in Wayfinder. The entire team at Airship is dedicated to keeping to our original promise if shaping the game alongside our players.
