- Another quick hotfix! - 23 September 2022
Hey everyone! Just one more quick patch for a few small issues our community found! - Included 18 missing Achievements into the game related to Arena mode. These haven't been Localized yet, so they're only in English currently, but language updates will be coming for them soon! - Fixed an issue with Potion of Swiftness which clears all Major Debuffs to also refresh your hand if you had used it to remove Stun from one of your Heroes.
- Hotfix for a few bugs - 22 September 2022
Hey everyone, thanks for your bug reports, we managed to squash the worst offenders and get out a quick update! - Battle Details after battles and End of Run details now correctly shows the 3 heroes from this run, and the accurate details of that battle for the all runs in a play session, not just the first run. - Arena Mode had Elite Enemies scaling wildly out of control if a user clicked into a battle, then backed out and checked the other battle, the elite edge enemies would continue to gain +50% HP, which was shown on the battle info popup. - Carrion's Discard abilities would allow you to click the OK button before selecting a card, resulting in the a soft lock where you couldn't close the Deck Viewer window during a battle.
- ARCANIUM 1.0 – OUT TODAY IN 15 LANGUAGES !!! - 22 September 2022
Hey friends! What a ride it’s been since our Early access launch late 2020! The amount of support we’ve gotten from Steam and Discord over the years has been instrumental to making Arcanium the game that it is today. We couldn’t have done it without all of you, and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts! Arcanium is our first game under the Supercombo banner. As a small team of 4 developers, with the help of many talented artists in the industry and with a rather limited amount of resources, we managed to deliver a game of the highest quality and polish that we could ever produce. We learned a lifetime’s worth of lessons within just the last few years, sometimes the hard way. But we finally did it. Arcanium is here! The Supercombo, Inc. team is proud and excited to announce that ARCANIUM IS NOW AVAILABLE IN 1.0 , marking the end of Early Access. The game features 16 playable Heroes,…

Great news everyone! We are in the final stretch of polishing and bug-testing the new & upcoming Arena mode for Arcanium. It is time for us to release the mode to the public in Beta so that you can give it a spin! We would love to hear your feedback about balance, pacing, difficulty and of course if you encounter any bugs, feel free to use the Bug Report feature in-game.

Patch Notes: 06/07/2022 - v10.65 At last, a new patch is here! And it is our biggest patch EVER! Thank you everyone for your patience as our team was working hard on creating some fresh new content for Arcanium! During those last months we focused heavily on adding more content to the game to diversify the Team-building possibilities and to increase our Artifacts pool. We would like to apologize for the delays and for not being very active on the Steam forums. However, we’ve been active daily on our Discord server where we’ve been interacting with our community the most. We have been working closely with our amazing testers on Discord, to bring you the best content possible! After hundreds of hours of playtesting, discussing, iterating and number-crunching we think that the game is in the best spot it’s ever been. 60% of the existing content was rebalanced, fine-tuned and polished as a…

- UPCOMING PATCH PREVIEW & MORE NEWS !!! - 7 May 2022
ARCANIUM PATCH PREVIEW - 05/06/2022 Hello everyone! Today I would like to talk about what we’ve been tinkering for the past months at Supercombo. We have a lot to talk about! We wanted to change things up this time, and release a Hero pack instead of releasing one Hero after another. As a small team, we found it more efficient to batch VFX, SFX, illustrations, card design, QA and bug fixing. We also added over 40 Artifacts, reworked a dozen that weren’t seeing a lot of love from the community, and made a flurry of balance tweaks to the Hero abilities and Neutral cards. Without further ado, here are the next 3 Heroes coming out this month. NEW HERO! BJORN (Elemental / Void) Bjorn is a Rhino Executioner and a hybrid Tank / Assassin. He relies on dishing out damage while sustaining himself through the Lifesteal mechanic. He’s also a reckless hero that deals damage to himself while decimati…
