• "Late Ming: Reborn in Flames" v1.3.11 Update Announcement — An Apology Letter to - 8 September 2026

  Hello everyone,It's an honor to meet you all.Since this is my first game as a solo developer, I have to handle everything myself — code, art, marketing, you name it. That's why localizations for English, Russian, Japanese, and other regions have been consistently delayed. To be honest, I know this hasn't been fair to overseas players who purchased the game. But I've been stretched thin, and there's only so much one person can do.This week, I spent an entire week doing initial translations for the main in-game content. There will definitely still be bugs and rough spots in the translations — but at least now, you can actually read it.I want to sincerely apologize to all overseas players.Thank you to everyone who has supported Late Ming: Reborn in Flames. Every single review — whether positive or negative — is a real source of encouragement and support for me. I'll keep working hard to ma…

• "Late Ming: Reborn in Flames" Price Adjustment Notice - 4 August 2026

  Hello everyone!The price in China region will go from 15 RMB to 18 RMB. For other regions, due to the recent drop in the USD exchange rate, the adjustment will be slightly larger — mainly to balance the regional pricing structure.I also want to mention: during the next sale, with 50% off, the price will still be 9 RMB — the same as before.To be honest, I feel a bit embarrassed raising the price for a game that still has bugs and updates slower than a snail. But that "price too low" warning from the Steam backend really made me nervous — I'm worried it might hurt visibility, so after much hesitation, I went ahead with the adjustment.Thank you to every player who has already supported me — your trust won't be devalued by this price change. I'll keep working on the game and filling out the content.—Developer Aladdin Batu

  Hello everyone!Thank you for your patience. This update marks the official release of Chapter 3, Bending the Bow to Shoot the Eagle. It took longer than expected mainly because my little "monster" at home is on summer break — between school drop-offs and tutoring sessions, I haven't been able to find solid blocks of time for development. I'm really sorry! Looking back, ending the last update at the destroyed village was indeed a bit rushed.The story of Bending the Bow to Shoot the Eagle takes place mainly in the northern grasslands and among the three Jurchen tribes. Of course, that's still a bit of a "pie in the sky" for now.
