The first big update for the early access version of Shadows: Heretic Kingdoms. Amongst other smaller fixes the update introduces Zaar, a new playable character and the Outlands, a brand new zone with several new areas. Additionally, the developers have implemented changes based on player feedback from the early access, including controller support for Shadows: Heretic Kingdoms and much more dynamic battles within the game.
In the Outlands players face hordes of new enemies like the Nomads and the Bone Demons, as well as new and challenging quests. Players can also now customize their party and characters in the new “Devourer Lair”, where the Devourer holds his souls captive. Plus, a host of updates to the GUI, the physics system, and the drop- and loot system in addition to DirectX11 support improve the overall gaming experience.
