Dear carants,

As the year draws to a close, we wanted to take a moment to talk to you about GreedFall 2 and reflect on our journey so far.

A lot has happened since the start of Early Access. We are still as thrilled today as we were when we embarked on this new adventure, embracing a format that’s as new to us as it might be to you—Early Access.

It’s been a challenging but rewarding experience. While some aspects hit the mark and were widely appreciated, some didn’t, but we expected it. More importantly, we remain committed to building a great game alongside you and listening to your invaluable feedback every step of the way. While there’s much we’re excited to share, some news will have to wait for the right time.

As mentioned in our last Community Update, we have decided to delay the release of Update 0.2.
This decision allows us to focus on implementing significant improvements and fixes based on your feedback. These include the combat system—which is as important to you as it is to us—the UI, character customization, optimization, and many other aspects.

Most of the changes we want to implement will take place gradually. As they need substantial work, Update 0.2 will only be the first step towards this end goal. We’re looking forward to sharing these improvements with you when they’re ready.

We also encountered an issue with recording Alvida’s lines during development. Sadly, for reasons out of our control, the original voice actress couldn’t record anymore, and we needed time to assess and find a solution. We recently met a new voice actress with whom we’ll start recording Alvida’s lines again. It also means we’ll have to record all her previous lines to ensure the voice doesn’t change in the middle of the game. So, you can expect a change of cast for the next update and onwards for Alvida.

We wish we could provide a release date, but we would rather wait until we’re certain. What we can promise is that our priority remains delivering a game that meets your expectations and takes your feedback into account.

Ensuring your voices shape this journey has always been the goal of Early Access.

Thank you for your continued support. We wish you a wonderful end to the year and look forward to seeing you in 2025—a year we’re confident will be fantastic for GreedFall 2.

Happy gaming!

(PS. Here’s a small preview of one of the many things the team has been working on that you’ll be able to meet it in the land of Thynia…)

Dear carants,

Since the beginning of the Early Access, the team has been working on the next update and today, we bring some news about it.


We mentioned in our previous Community Update that we were actively working on the new content for the next update. It will bring numerous additions such as:

• New region – The story will take you to Olima, the City of Stars.
  
• New companion – You’ll meet a new ally and unlock new skill trees.
  
• The Hub – A place where to rest, gather your companions and prepare your adventure.
  
• New quests – With the continuation of the story, new regional quests and the first companion quests.
  
• And more…

The other topics we mentioned also progressed since the last Community Update. We plan to release part of it for the Update 0.2 to present an improved system for:

• Faster, smoother and more reactive combat experience;
  
• Cleaner animations in and out of combat;
  
• And more…

Please note however that most of the changes we want to implement will take place gradually. As they necessitate substantial work, the Update 0.2 will only be the first step towards this end goal.

We know we’ll need to keep building upon them to make the game’s experience better for everyone.

As the Early Access continues and we keep up our working on implementing these deeper changes, you can expect even more improvements to the game, especially with the combat and the exploration.

Of course, meanwhile, we will also keep a close eye on your feedback to ensure that we are going in the right direction.


While we initially planned to release the first major update during Autumn, we realized we needed a bit more time to be able to deliver proper content.

We want your experience to be as fun as possible, so we decided to delay the Update 0.2. We want to take the time to address your feedback and polish certain aspects of the game which were demanded by the community.

We will communicate the new date of release as soon as we can.

In the meantime, we wanted to share some images of what we’ve been working on. They are still a work in progress, but it will give you a small peek of new places you can expect in the next update until we reveal more about it.

Stay tuned and happy gaming!

Dear carants,

The team has been hard at work and we bring some news regarding what we’ve been up to for the last weeks.


We will deploy a small patch next week. This patch will bring numerous fixes and some improvements to the game based on your comments, such as:

• Fixing the issues of inactive companions or main character in Autonomous Party
  
• Fixing some animation issues like the jittering hair
  
• Improving the interaction button so you won’t have to hold it anymore to interact with NPC
  
• Improving targeting of creatures during combat
  
• Adding localization
  
• And more…

We will communicate the full changelog when it’s live.


We noted your feedback regarding the game encountering frame drops or not running well in some instances. We prepared a guide to help you while we investigate the matter and continue to work on the game’s optimization.

We also suggest you contact our Support Team[greedfall2.zendesk.com] so our agents can take care of your request and troubleshoot the issue with you. Make sure to provide as many details as possible, such as your dxdiag and your game’s settings. The more details you provide, the faster the agent will be able to help.


But that’s not all the team has been up to. We’ve also been working on the next big update which should bring improvements to the game and additional content, such as:

• A new region
  
• The first companion quests
  
• New skill trees
  
• The hub, a new feature which will help you navigate the world

But we’ll reveal more in due time…

And aside from the next update on the Road Map, the team has also been working on other projects based on what is the most demanded by the community.


While we do not intend to revert to the old system from GF1, we know the current system needs drastic improvements to make it fun for everyone. The key elements the team is currently working on thanks to your feedback are:

• Faster pacing with more responsive actions and animations
  
• Better accessibility with improved onboarding and options
  
• Better controls to macro and micromanage your party
  
• And more…

Though the next hotfix will only fix some bugs for now, you can expect deep changes to the system in the future. As those changes will take more time to analyse and implement, we’ll share all the concrete details when it’s ready, so stay tuned!


The UI in the game is still a work in progress and as the Early Access unfolds, we will build upon it updates after updates. What you can expect in the future:

• Global UI improvements
  
• New UI for Reputation Standing
  
• And more…

As the team advances on those important subjects, we will reveal more about them.

In the meantime, we will keep reading your comments which have been helpful for the team. The game still being in development, we know there’s a long road ahead of us and we are very excited to continue improving the game’s experience as we carry on this Early Access with you.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us, and until then, happy gaming!

Dear carants,

GreedFall 2’s Early Access released on Tuesday, and this week has been exciting for us. We are grateful for everyone who participated in making the release such a great moment and for everyone who took the time to share their experience with us.

We read all your feedback and questions, so we wanted to take the time to go over them with you and tell you what our team is currently working on for the next patch, as well as give you a rundown on two important subjects: combat and character customization.


With your feedback, we noted some bugs that we aim to fix soon with a small patch that should also include improvements such as: increasing certain drop rate, decreasing the DOF (depth of field) during dialogue scenes to make it less blurry, making the feedback of targeting an ally’s portrait more visible, and adjusting the AI behaviour so that you do not have to spend too much time micromanaging your companions when you do not want to - making your experience in combat easier.

We will publish the full changelog when it is live.


The combat in GF2 is an aspect of Early Access that we are particularly interested in. With the introduction of the new tactical pause system, your feedback is and will be crucial for us to ensure that the new system is fun for everyone.

With that being said, we are aware that some elements are still a work in progress and need improvement, and that some bugs can hinder your experience for the moment. We noted your feedback on that subject, and we aim to improve it in future updates throughout Early Access.

Currently, the team is working on two major future improvements.

We noted that the pacing of the combat could feel a bit stiff. When auto-attacking, in between actions, the character goes back to its idle position before attacking. We plan to go over it and change it to make the combat pacing smoother and more reactive.

We noted that, in some instances, selecting a target could be difficult when it is moving or attacking. We plan to go over and fix it, so that selecting a target with a skill is more flexible regardless of it being in the middle of an animation or not.

Those two improvements are not the only things we will implement and change in the future, but we hope they will greatly help for a smoother experience in combat.

Of course, we will keep you informed when we plan to implement those changes, and we will keep monitoring your feedback to ensure that the combat system’s evolution meets your expectations as best as possible.


Character Creation is another element of the game which is still in development. Throughout Early Access, we plan to add new options and new ways for you to create and customize the character you want.

You can expect some changes already in the next patches, with additional colours and hairstyles for the Character Creation.

However, in the long run, the system will have an integral revamp with new additions and new options that will let you create your character more freely, such as:

• Face Editor: An editor for Character Creation that will let you alter the different areas of your face without having it being preset.
  
• Transmog: The ability to change the appearance of your gear without altering the stats.

Of course, we will keep you informed and continue monitoring your feedback on that subject too.

Until then, do not hesitate to join the discussion and keep sharing your feedback with us.

Happy gaming!
