What is aWartaleanyway? I always thought it was a story from a war, but it turns out it’s actually an open world RPG where you control mercenaries as they explore abandoned terrain. Wartales’ most recent update, Harag’s Marshlands, is one of the most substantial additions to the game so far, and it’s out now.

The most important update is that all the animals in the game can now be tamed, and each species also has their own dedicated skill tree. Really hope that means you can use a bear like a Pokémon at some point.
The combat’s had some nice additions too. The level limit has been increased to nine, while also giving you some new skills to unlock. On top of that, there’s also two new battle modes you can run into when exploring: Survival, which is wave survival, and Escape, which is about running from hordes of enemies as they chase after you.
There are some general quality of life changes and bug fixes in the patch too, and you can find the fullpatch notesover on their steam page.
“I could point to the depth of systems or an approach to design that trusts the player enough to let them discover things themselves,” Nic saidin our review. “But I think the most useful thing to impart about Wartales is that it just has, well, a certain special something. Maybe there’s some cool sounding French for that that I’m forgetting. The fact that it’s far from finished has me very interested indeed. Moar acorns, please.”
