⚡ Hotfix Announcement: Demo Version Update (Planned)

· by Shay · Announcements

We are currently working on a hotfix to address several issues discovered during the demo.

Among them, the VFX lag and sound volume adjustment problems will be prioritized and resolved first in an upcoming patch.


[Scheduled Fixes in the Incoming Hotfix]

  • VFX Lag on Initial Load Some visual effects may cause the game to temporarily freeze the first time they appear.

  • Sound Volume Adjustment Not Working Certain sound effects and background music do not respond correctly to volume changes.

[Known Issues]

  • Level-Up Not Triggering After First Expedition After starting a New Game or clearing Baphomet, there are rare cases where leveling up may not be possible if the level-up and certain event cutscenes overlap:

– When purifying the Small Sanctuary Tree

– Within 0.5 seconds of the Seraphiel statue cutscene

  • Black Screen on Game Start

On some systems, the game may remain on a black screen at launch. We suspect this may be related to extended loading times and are currently investigating the cause.


The upcoming hotfix is currently in its final stages of preparation and will be deployed soon to improve overall stability and gameplay experience.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience and continued support.

Thank you.

– Ember and Blade Team
