New Build and August Updates in The Walking Dead: Empires

Published:

New Build, New Capabilities

Today we are releasing a new build for The Walking Dead: Empires. For most players, you probably won’t notice any difference in your gameplay. On the tech side, however, this update is absolutely critical to future work we’re planning.

This build will add new tools to help us manipulate and adjust game code. Overall, it will speed up the process of implementing new features going forward.

The first major test of these new tools may be noticeable to some players. We’ll be adding the initial pieces of an all-new first time user experience. This will be an iterative process. Each step of this tutorial content will be added incrementally until the feature is complete.

Adjusted Event Schedule

As we said when we first released weekly events, we’re keeping a close eye on the data to make these as fun and engaging for players as possible. This is what releasing a public development build is all about! We’re listening to your feedback and watching the data to continually refine and improve your experience while you survive.

First, the Survivor’s Trial XP event has been removed. We noticed that players weren’t engaging with this one as much as the others, so we’ve eliminated it entirely for right now.

Second, events will no longer last a full week. On Monday through Thursday each week, you’ll stock up those materials for the Deadland Scavenge event. Weekends will then alternate between events focused on crafting or wiping out walkers each week.

It’s our hope that these adjustments give the events a little more purpose, as you’ll be able to put the materials you gathered throughout the week to good use on the weekend!

As always, we’ll be watching the events closely and making adjustments as needed to improve.

Sasha Sale

Sasha will be the first direct purchase Hero available in August! Recruit Sasha to your empire on Friday, August 2nd at 7am PT.

Sasha was a hardened survivor, capable of fighting her way through incredible hardships. While she often carried the scars of the past, she never lost her ferocity or pragmatic instincts.

Starting this Friday, Sasha will be able to bring her abilities to your empire. Sasha was always there to fight for the people she cares about. Will your empire welcome her home?

This sale will run with a tiered pricing structure. As the supply of any rarity Uncommon or higher decreases, its price will incrementally increase.

Common Heroes will stay at one low price throughout the entire sale.

As usual, any Sasha purchased in this sale will fulfill directly to GalaChain and be usable in-game right away.

This sale will not be time-limited. All rarities will remain available until their supply is exhausted or until further notice.

Building Bigger

Thank you for playing the public development build of The Walking Dead: Empires! As we build more features and world, your feedback is indispensable for continually improving the game.

There’s definitely more coming for August, but this will get us started for now. Stay tuned for upcoming news, and don’t forget to grab Sasha in The Walking Dead: Empires store on Friday!
