New patch that improves performance of Xbox One version now
live
Vienna/Bremen: Developer KING Art Games keeps on working on
The Dwarves. A new patch has been released for
Xbox One to improve performance, whilst a larger update is
currently in development that will bring a few fan requests to the
game.
With yesterday’s patch, the following problems have been
fixed to make the game run smoother:
- Fixed a bug that under certain circumstances overtaxed the
audio processor, resulting in stutter or freezes at some
locations - Fixed possible audio distortions in a few locations
- Fixed lag spikes that could occur in random locations, for
example Mifurdania Marketplace or outside of Lot-Ionan’s
Vault - Fixed a glitch that could make it hard to select a waypoint on
the world map without getting sick 😉
To further address performance issues – especially
during loading times on console – KING Art is currently
checking if a new version of the Unity game engine will shorten the
time needed to load locations and still guarantee gameplay
stability. This next, bigger update is either arriving as a
christmas present or very early 2017 and will enhance all versions
of the game on all plattforms.
The Dwarves offers massive-scale, tactical battles in
real-time and a brand new, physics-based “crowd combat
system”, to let the players feel the thrill of fighting
hundreds of enemies with only a small bunch of heroes (no pun
intended).
Besides the challenging combat, players can dive into a deep
story, based on the best-selling ‘The Dwarves’ series
of novel by Markus Heitz.
The Dwarves is available NOW for PC, Mac, Linux,
PlayStation®4 and Xbox One at a retailer near you or as a
digital download.
