Oberhaching, Germany, August 23rd 2024 – Developer Superkami and publisher Toplitz Productions are thrilled to announce a pivotal update arriving for its multi genre open-world RPG, city builder, life simulation and survival game Sengoku Dynasty.
The Ikigai update is set to be the most impactful update for Sengoku Dynasty yet, introducing a new perk based progression system as well as a refined combat system for those seeking the way of the warrior or more streamlined production mechanics for those on a more peaceful path.
The new perk system has been revamped to allow for deeper perk tree mechanics, like multilevel perks or locking one skill behind another with different benefits depending on the role you choose, warrior, leader, craftsman or monk.
Since launching into Early Access last August, Sengoku Dynasty has continuously evolved through a series of updates that have refined gameplay mechanics, enhanced historical accuracy, and added immersive content. The latest addition – combat – brings a new dimension to the game, staying true to the turbulent era the game depicts.
When fully implemented into the game the combat system in Sengoku Dynasty will bring dynamic combat mechanics that players can utilize including full-body movement, for chaining combos with quick and heavy attacks, parries and blocks, with different weapons offering unique advantages.
Skill is another factor of combat, and with the new combat feature, skill based fighting will depend greatly on a players own skill and gear. Those who prefer an economical playstyle can craft superior weapons and armor, while highly skilled players can triumph even with basic equipment.
The Ikigai update will introduce a beta version of the combat system, featuring basic bandits and their camps. Players will have the opportunity to test and provide feedback, helping the developers refine the system before the official release. This collaborative approach ensures that the final combat mechanics will meet the community's high standards.
This latest update will also provide an improved production system,managing villagers work tasks will now be much easier, workplaces will offer better visual clarity, while improved notifications and warnings will better inform you of any production issues.
With version 1.0 on the horizon, Sengoku Dynasty will continue to expand with extensive combat features, a dynamic dynasty system, bandit camps, seasonal quests and events, a character editor, and more endgame content. The arrival of each update brings the player community closer to an immersive living world that perfectly encapsulates the essence of feudal Japan.
