v.1.0.1 Patch Notes

Hey everyone!



Overall, the launch of Achilles went very smoothly! We're thrilled to read through all of your feedback and watch you play the 1.0 version of Achilles.

In the meantime, we have put together a hotfix which solves a few issues that came up during launch. The most important one is that by doing a skill tree reset, you could lose the key ability of Hades Vision, which is essential for progression. In addition, we managed to patch a few other minor details, here's a list of them:


  • The skill tree reset can no longer take away the Hades Vision skill
  • It is not possible anymore to skip the fight with Pollux after the player's death
  • The possibility of destroying one of Phobos' masks in the Farm area with a shield
  • Improved shield block performance as a result of Kamikaze explosions
  • Killing/saving Tydeus now has a greater impact on the ending of the game


Of course, we are constantly following up on all of our channels of communication with you, and if necessary, we will continue to release further patches to fix serious bugs. We wish you a continued great time with Achilles: Legends Untold!

What exactly is the game? - Achilles 101 #1 (DevLog #7)

Welcome, warriors!



We’re getting closer and closer to the grand finale of our Early Access phase. A lot of gamers have joined us over the past year and a half, so for all of the new players, we want to answer the first question that probably comes to mind - “What exactly is Achilles: Legends Untold?”



This is part one of a two-part DevLog miniseries called “Achilles 101”. In this post, we’ll be focusing on the game’s setting, open world exploration and character development. Both the new players and the veterans might find something interesting for themselves, so let’s just get right into it!

GAME SETTING



“Achilles: Legends Untold” is set in mythological Ancient Greece - this means you’ll encounter a lot of well known figures and monsters from the stories of old. You play as Achilles himself, the hero known around the world thanks to his involvement in the Trojan War.


The story begins in Troy, which serves as a tutorial section, where you learn basic mechanics and get acquainted with the game’s environment. The events of the Troy siege go mostly like in Homer’s Iliad, although something’s different…

SHRINES



Right after you finish the tutorial and watch a cutscene, you’re thrown into the game’s open world. The first thing you’ll find here is a Hades Shrine. These are pivotal points on the map - they’re the place where you’ll be able to get a bit of rest and upgrade your character.


You can teleport between the shrines you’ve already restored. This allows for faster travel across the map in the later stages of the game.

SKILL TREE



By killing enemies you gain XP, which converts into Skill Points after a level up. Be careful though, because if you’ll die you’ll lose the progress for the next level. You get only one chance to pick it up, if you die again it’s gone forever.


The game has an extensive skill tree, which consists of constellations, each of which contain a number of nodes.

Some of the nodes unlock additional attacks or passive abilities, while others increase your stats - although these can be upgraded up to 3 times total, you only need to upgrade them once to unlock the further ones.

LOOT AND ITEMS:



During gameplay, you’ll find a lot of different chests and bags filled with loot. It can be weapons, usable items or upgrade materials - there is much variety in what you’ll be collecting.


Your weapons and armor can also be upgraded at the blacksmith’s for currency and adequate materials (the cost increases with each upgrade level).

CRAFTING:



While exploring the map, you’ll find different crafting recipes. To use the recipes and craft items, you’ll have to collect the needed materials either by collecting them on the map or from enemies


There are X crafting recipes to find, which together unlock Y items that you can create, divided into Z categories in the menu.

STORY:


The game’s main storyline is mostly linear, although not entirely. After certain boss fights, you’ll be given a choice - do you want to murder your enemy in cold blood, or would you rather spare them?


Depending on your answer, you’ll not only receive different rewards, but also impact the ending of the game. The decision belongs to you.

While you’re exploring the open world, you’ll also encounter several side quests and points of interest to engage with. Find hidden treasure chests, close Tartarus Rifts, free souls of fallen soldiers and many more.



That's it for part one of “Achilles 101”. This post should help you get started with “Achilles: Legends Untold” and explain some of the key mechanics present in the game. The second part will involve tips and more insight for the game’s combat.

Exciting Updates Ahead: Mark Your Calendars for September 28th!



Hello Warriors!



Major News Drops on September 28th!


Exciting news! In just two weeks, on September 28th, we will be unveiling the official release date for “Achilles: Legends Untold” version 1.0. Stay tuned to our Steam news section for this highly-anticipated announcement, where we'll provide you with all the precise release details. We can't wait to share this exciting information with you! :)

Price Increase on September 25th


In addition to the upcoming release, we also want to inform you about a modest price adjustment for Achilles: Legends Untold from USD 19,99 to USD 24,99. This change is in response to the substantial content and consistent updates delivered during the Early Access period. The new pricing will take effect on September 25th, and we hope it all makes more sense to you once you get to see everything that is new in the quest of Achilles..

You may wonder why we're making this change before the full-release? Honestly, it's because otherwise, it would disrupt the sales calendar for the rest of the year, as well as our plans. We'd like to leave the door open for the possibility of participating in some of the anticipated seasonal sales. Raising the price on the v1.0 launch day would complicate things, as price changes also entail a temporary price freeze.

We appreciate your continued support and look forward to delivering a bigger and even more exciting and polished gaming experience with the release of ”Achilles: Legends Untold” version 1.0. Thank you for being a part of our journey!
