Build Release 17.10.2025 Announcement and Changelog
Welcome to the October build release!
Big changes that the environment team is working on aren't quite ready yet, but we finished the A-quality blockout for Sky Village buildings and large structures. The canyon region also has a nice first pass for the foliage blockout done and it's looking nice already. Additionally, we have created a very cool castle-prop set for the sandbox, which will allow you to make awesome castles, a nice fit for the spooky month. 
Our design team also added a more elaborate quest-line for Shey, implementing the first iteration of the Max x Shey romance story.
On top of that, we have a bunch of nice new outfits and some requested outfit transfers, as well as a sexy new set of Maya x Sethro animations.
We have temporarily deactivated the Combat Arena in this build while we finish a major round of core combat improvements. The next version of the arena will return in December 2025, sharper and more satisfying.
We are very grateful for all of your feedback on the new combat. There is still a lot to do, so we decided to take a deeper dive into the improvement of the combat system instead of patching things piece by piece. Keeping the arena active during this phase would only cause confusion and slow down progress, hence we have not included it in this build.
