• Dev Log: New Loot Window, Map, and Auto-Equipment Management - 28 July 2025

  Greetings, mercenaries! It’s been a while — which means it’s time to share how development is progressing. After the closed beta test of the prologue, we realized Plague Lords needed some serious changes. We’ve been reworking many systems — and the good news is that the updated version of the prologue is nearing completion. Most of the localizations are done, and the gameplay is now significantly more player-friendly. Here’s what we’ve already implemented — or are just about to wrap up: ⚒️ Automatic Use of Tools and Weapons No more micromanagement — characters will now automatically equip the right tool or weapon from their inventory, depending on the task: chopping, hammer, or fighting. 🪙 New Loot Window with “Take All” Button No more opening a separate window for each building — now, when you search houses, carts, or corpses, you’ll get a compact loot window where you can grab everyt…

• Rework of Morale, Stamina, and Combat System - 11 April 2025

  Long time no see, mercenaries! It’s been a while since our last update — and we haven’t been idle. Over the past few months, Plague Lords has undergone massive changes. We’ve reworked core systems, added quality-of-life features, and improved the overall gameplay experience. Here's a quick breakdown of the most important updates: 🧳 Items Can Now Be Dropped on the Ground No more disappearing gear! Dropped items will now stay on the ground for a couple of in-game days. If your squad is overloaded, you can temporarily leave some supplies behind and come back for them later. Perfect for forced marches when you don't want to lose valuable resources. ⚖️ Morale System Fully Reworked Morale now dynamically responds to everything: character actions, conditions, and story events. High morale may allow characters to walk without losing stamina, do more work, or even gain bonus attacks in combat.…

  Hello mercenaries! From the beginning of this year we've been working on improvements to the game: new character abilities and improved tactical combat, reworking the work, overload and energy counting system, and much more, we can't wait to share what we've done with you! Playtest Results During the playtest, we got a lot of feedback and made sure we were moving in the right direction. However, we also identified a few weaknesses of the game.

This has added to our work, but now we know exactly how to make the game better and are already actively working on im…
