| Everwind - Future Features | 2026-07-31 | Hello Explorers, It’s been a couple months since we’ve released our most recent major content update, The First Ascent. Since then, we’ve also published a couple of hotfixes, most notably the one that focused on improving optimization. "That’s all nice, but when do we get the next update? And what will it include” - you ask? We’re here to answer that today! In this article, we’d like to cover both what we’re planning for the upcoming update, and what we’d like to add in the further future. The following section is dedicated to the update, and the further future features part can be found below it. Here is an overview of what we are planning t |
| Hunt for the Mortivar Lord Is Still On! If You Need a Hint... | 2026-07-20 | Hello Explorers, We're halffway through the Mortivar Lord Boss Rush Challenge and so far, we're impressed by the creative methods some of you came up with! Some of you, however, shared concerns that the Mortivar Lord might be too difficult to find, even more to defeat, that all in the fastest time possible. We hear you, and that's why we decided to give you a hint on where to find him. Hint: The island that holds the Lord's dungeon is actually very close to the starting island and it's even visible from the tower there. The coordinates are "X:-258, Y:-952, Z:690". You can find your current coordinates by pressing the "-" key (by default) on t |
