- Patch Notes: Easter + Fog of War Edition 18/4/25 - 18 April 2025
Happy Good Friday! We're very excited to announce a special new Easter World, which is also going to introduce an experimental new gameplay feature - Fog of War! 7 minutes ago Easter World Explore EDYN in a completely new way! Peel back the shroud to discover friend and foe... ...and eggs.

Fog of War The FoW adds a completely new feel to the World Map. Restricted vision makes the relationship with your neighbours much more intimate.

RAT LOGIC 3 You will d.i.e. again edition is NOW LIVE!

They've been learning from player data from previous worlds... their behaviour may be different. Watch out! You will d.i.e. again!
- Patch Notes: Optimisation Edition 11/4/25 - 11 April 2025
Evening @announcements, Some really good news today for folks that have been struggling with loading times. We realised that the scene loading times needed improvement months ago, and have been actively working behind the scenes to do everything in our power to bring this right down to 0-1 seconds. With today's build, at least for the World and Settlement scenes, we believe we've pretty much got it there. On the team's intermediate test rig, we are able to jump between all of the faction's settlement scenes, and the world map within a single second loading time. The war rooms are much faster too, most are down from 4 seconds to around 2 now as well. We will continue to work on this as an ongoing process. We are also in the process of updating to Unity 6, which will also bring further improvements and a nice little boost to visual fidelity too. We hope to accomplish this within the next…

Here you will find a new research tree that will unleash powerful and GLOBAL effects to all of your settlements and armies. Time To Cash In!

In exchange for Tokens (and a small donation of your general currency), you will be able to purchase Nodes from the Research Tree in the relevant 'flavour' of the Faction that you've been pulverising the most. As you work down the Research Branches, you will discover increasingly powerful nodes and effects.…
- Patch Notes: Research Centre Edition 4/4/25 - 4 April 2025
I hope you're ready for some research! This is the second of three major sequential upgrades that we've been working on. This feature upgrade will be active on today's new Speed World and also unlock on the currently live Classic World #3. As this is a substantial new feature, please bear it mind there may be some rough edges. It will take some time to tune / balance, we've started conservatively with the numbers and will adjust from feedback. Keep up posted in #general and #bugs!

- FLURRY WORLD 2 & CLASSIC WORLD 3 now LIVE! - 28 March 2025
FLURRY WORLD 2 - X100 Multiplier NOW LIVE!!! Stress test the game edition! Here it is, we're hoping this will be the ultimate test to see how our servers can cope with virtually unlimited armies. All units will recruit 100x faster (colo units still have 30+ min increments), and we've doubled the infantry resource generation to help get things moving! We are testing running this World at 12.5x, which is approximately 20% slower than the previous event modes. For clarification, we've been running the events at 15x, so this new Flurry World is set at 12.5x, which is halfway between the OG Speed World (10x) and KOTH #2. CLASSIC WORLD 3 NOW LIVE!!! We have taken onboard feedback from World 2 and have made the following pacing and colonisation improvements: This World is set at 1.2x speed (20% faster than World 2). Your first colo unit will now take 6 hours (down from 12) and each increment w…
- Patch Notes - 28/3/25 - 28 March 2025
Big one today. This might not seem like the most exciting update, but it's nonetheless a vital one. When we first went live in November, one of the biggest aspects we wanted to test for was the responsiveness of our servers, especially in regards to handling hundreds of concurrent players, with thousands, sometimes even tens of thousands of simultaneous missions active. What we found was that when armies started reaching the millions of units, in extreme cases, some battles started to take up to a minute to calculate. Even sending large forces could lead to several seconds of delay. We've been doing lots of fixes and patches to improve our systems over the last few months, but we ultimately we needed to redesign the underlying architecture to not only fix the issue, but ensure that we can achieve our ambition of having the potential to host hundreds, if not, thousands of players. From t…

The King Has Returned! - 21/3/25 KING OF THE HILL 2. DEFEAT KING GAUNT edition is NOW LIVE. Our previous King will return to defend his title! When he joins the fray, the monolithic structures will heed his call. Will you be able to claim the monoliths for yourself and challenge the King's supremacy? Beware usurpers - the King will likely not surrender his legacy without a fight! THE DETAILS. - Capturing KOTH objectives will no longer count towards your settlement number, and therefore not remove your initial settlement protection buff. - Resource building upgrade costs have been adjusted so that the primary resource consumed is not the same type as what the building produces. - Scaling of resource building output has been returned to reduce the overabundance of resources at max level. DEFEAT THE KING. CAPTURE HIS MONOLITHS AND REIGN SUPREME. Also... Well done to everyone that got invol…

- Patch Notes: 28/2/25 - 28 February 2025
Hey folks, Sorry for the delay this evening, we caught some last minute bugs during QA so decided to hold off for a couple of hours and fix, rather that delay a great new feature! Massive Character Customisation Update! Part two of our character creation overhaul process is now live. In total we've added over 100 new customisation options and will continue to add more as time goes by! We've further refined the UI to be more responsive and added a function that let's you unlock new appearances for XP. Additional appearances will soon be linked to certain achievements, and some more eccentric designs will be found in the shop in future. Important: All accounts will start with a default appearance, and all other options will have an XP cost associated. This means that some of the appearances that were previously free now have a cost. To compensate for this, for this week only we have set t…
