Next Update
Hi! Adventurers,
Recently, some enthusiastic players asked about the current development situation of Low Magic Age and when the next update comes ;)
At present, we are working on the story-line, including the dialogue module and the main/side quest module, at full stretch. These complex modules need 1-2 extra months to complete, more or less.
The reason for postponing other game contents and developing the story first is that many new game contents need the cooperation of the story module. For example, various guilds, banks, urban construction and management, and crafting in the adventure mode, etc., all these features need to come with stories or quests to be more complete and interesting, rather than abruptly added into the game.
Thank you again for your support and patience! See you next update.

Price Increase
Hello Adventurers,
First of all, thank you for your long-term support and help! Thank you for your feedback and suggestions that help us to improve LMA!
The adventure mode that has been developed for nearly a year has finally been released, and we will continue to improve it to make it more playable. Of course, the updates of other game features will also be followed up simultaneously.
As we said in the Early Access statement, we started the EA stage of LMA at a low price to thank players who have been supporting and caring about us since the prototype stage. As the game develops, the price will be gradually increased until the full release. Therefore, after the current discount event and the Summer Sale (same discount), we intend to increase the game price from 6 US dollars to 10 US dollars.
Thanks again for your continuous support!
