recent update schedule and some of the future plans.

Thank you for your continued support of Wizardry: The Five Ordeals.

This week's update none even if beta, but next week we will be doing a beta update with a major feature addition: Changing equipment during battle. Details of the feature will be announced at the time of the update.

In addition, although a specific date has not been determined, as part of our future plans:

- Changes to the location of saved data, portraits, and other temporary files generated by the game.
- Expansion of savedata with partial or complete removal of compatibility with previous versions.

and about the Official scenario English translations:

- Plans have already been decided and all that remains is to wait for time.

However, again, this is a translation of the "official scenario". It does not allow user scenarios to be played in English, nor does it involve significant UI English optimization.
On the other hand, some improvements are planned for English users playing Japanese user scenarios.

Thank you.
