• UPDATE: Vicious Circle Refund - 4 November 2019

  Hello again! The issue with initiating a Vicious Circle refund through Steam has been resolved. Thank you all for your patience.

• Vicious Circle Refund - 4 November 2019

  Hello everyone, We're aware that some folks aren't able to receive their VC refund on Steam due to the platform's 14-day owned/2 hours played policy. We're reaching out to Steam for a fix ASAP. We were told they could lift that restriction for the game since we were going F2P, but unfortunately it appears that the restriction hasn't been lifted yet. Thank you for your patience as we work to get this sorted. We will update everyone once we hear back.

• Update on Vicious Circle - 1 November 2019

  Hey friends! We have an important update to share about Vicious Circle. Starting right now, the base game and Founder’s Pack for Vicious Circle are free to play. This also means any new content created up until this point will be released free of charge as well. New content includes more Legendary Skins, character missions, and Cosmic Chaos effects. As an added bonus, for our last update we’re adding a brand new monster, Sheldon the Crab, to antagonize our Circle Mercs. If you purchased the game or the Founder’s Pack, we will be issuing refunds back through the original platform where the game was purchased. If you bought a copy of the game through the Rooster Teeth Store, please contact our support team here https://support.roosterteeth.com/hc/en-us/requests/new.

• News and Patch Planning (Plus a Preview of Patch #2) - 20 August 2019

  Afternoon, Circle Mercs! Now that we’re in the post-launch world, we’re all about talking with you and keeping the content and fixes coming. To that end, we plan to keep up a general cadence of weekly beats. Tuesday News and Patches We will try to keep a constant news flow so you know the latest from the devs. Also, when patches drop, we want to target Tuesday, that will give us the remainder of the week to react to potential bugs/ feedback. Wednesday Dev Streams We plan to stream the game each wednesday. As beefier updates hit, we’ll sit in the studio so you can hear the news from the dev’s themselves. On our non-content weeks, we’ll be running a standard webcam and stream setup for games with the community and Q&A. Thursday Community play nights We’ll be hitting the Discord server, cracking the energy drinks, and queueing up in-game to go toe to toe to chicken claw with the community.…
