CAVES OF QUD  RELEASES SPRING MOLTING UPDATE, THE FINAL MAJOR CONTENT UPDATE BEFORE 1.0 LATER THIS YEAR

Freehold Games :

MONTREAL, JUNE 9, 2024 - Announced today during the PC Gaming Show, as part of a fun Kitfox Games publishing segment, developer Freehold Games are happy to release today the final major update to Caves of Qud before it launches into 1.0 later this year — the Spring Molting Update! 

This update brings a transformative change to the game’s user interface making it mouseable, fully game-paddable, and much prettier. Seasoned Qud players should immediately notice the difference, and any new players getting ready to jump in before 1.0 should now have an easier time onboarding.
