At the moment we are working hard on developing equipment and crafting. We plan to continuously implement final versions of those systems to improve gameplay, and help players to create in-game economy. We started with complex designing of the amount of available weapons.

The next task we are now working on is weather system optimization. We aim to increase it's effectiveness, so it would be able to display higher quality atmospheric effects.

We also do our best to improve GUI and AI, so NPC will be able to use shooting weapons.

And we can - with pleasure - announce that npc dialogues are almost ready for implementation!

We also implement support of Steam game registration keys. Due to policy of this platform, until the game is released, only people who own Gloria Victis in their libraries will see it in other gamers collections. It will allow to by example run the game by Steam application and counting in-game time.

Thanks for all your support, our dear Community!
