5 June, 2020

Yotunz!

The Elemental Update is here to further enhance your in-game experience. Now you can enjoy new content and various fixes. 

Watch the official update trailer:

New Elements: Shock and Dark

Shocking news: We’re introducing new elements.

The elemental chart has grown with the addition of Shock and Dark Elements—keep this in mind the next time you try to attack a Fire pillbug with a Nature Axe.

Adding new elements significantly influences the gameplay. Shock and Dark Elements will introduce several changes, such as:

  • 2 new versions of each regular enemy
  • 2 new versions of each Mutation (skill)
  • 2 new versions of each Symbiont (weapon)
  • 5 new versions of Traps
  • 5 new versions of Grenades
  • 4 new Healing Bongos
  • New crafting option
  • And more!

New Symbionts: Lance and Sabre

Now you can use two new Symbionts!

  • Yotunz Lance – Fast and deadly—before you dodge, you will be able to land a few blowz. Just remember to stick ‘em with da pointy end! 

Kreated for stabbyn enemiez – stab, stab, stab until enemy iz full of holez, so he kan’t live, symple. (Tadd da Bad)

  • Yotunz Sabre – This da weapon of a Chosen One. Not as clumsy or random as a sword; da elegant weapon for da more civilized age.

Legend sayz dat da first Yotun was hittyn enemy with hiz stone sword so wildly dat da stone cracked and turned into crescent shape. That iz how da first sabre was made. (Shaman Vordagg)

New NPC: Gromm da Stoned

Have you sniffed this one?

Gromm the Healer, also called Gromm da Stoned, is a villager who speaks in riddles and gives vague answers. He lives in a swamp and is addicted to the intoxicating haze rising from the ground there. Still, Gromm has great healing skills and can upgrade new seeds.

New quests

Take on new quests during your adventures:

  • Crab Stash – enter the lair of a deadly flame-bursting crab and grab new items and a blueprint…if you survive
  • Abandoned Machinery – solve the mystery of abandoned machinery, do a fellow Troll a favor, and mine tons of veri on the way

New traits

Pick Yotunz with new traits from the Spawner:

  • Torturer – gain health points for every enemy killed by traps
  • Elemental Mirror – gain an Elemental Aura of the Elemental Effect that you’re currently affected by
  • Voices in his Head – strange voices distract you

New usable items

Equip your Yotun with new deadly items:

  • Rootrap – lure your enemies into a trap to immobilize them.

To trap da enemy, you have to be smart and patient, do you? (Tadd da Bat)

  • Grenade – throw an AoE grenade to damage enemies from a safe distance.

Ma fruitz, so full and juicy, they are going explode. (Bok da Sladger)
