A Commitment to Ongoing Support
Project Cloud Games has actively incorporated community feedback since release. Rewards from common enemies have changed from gold to much-needed Relic power, which aids skill progression. Plus, new map icons have been added to increase visibility on dungeon locations, making it easier to track down up to 80 unrelenting bosses (Brutals).
Continuing to deliver on their promise, there has been updates to stability, NPC behaviour, balancing, rewards, events, combat, progression, localisation, and general quality of life improvements since its launch on July 31st. This sustained developer support is already yielding results, with player ratings and reviews revising upward across platforms.
With many exciting, community-driven updates and launches on the way from Project Cloud, The Relic: First Guardian remains stoic on its ambitious journey.
Thank you all for your incredible support, feedback, and dedication!
