Focus Entertainment and Deck13 Interactive just announced the Reign of Sand content update for Atlas Fallen. On August 6, this free update for the action-RPG will offer new content for both solo and co-op play.
The free Reign of Sand update also "overhauls a number of gameplay mechanics and core game features." These changes are in addition to the added content, improvements to pacing, and various quality-of-life improvements. Deck13 say that this update is the "direct result of the community's valuable feedback."
Some of these new features include things like New Game+, the Nyaal's Nightmare difficulty, 25 new Essence Stones, and more. The campaign has also been "reworked" though to what extent is not clear.
New Horizons & Challenges Awaits
An expanded world, new enemies, revamped progression, new quests... The world of Atlas Fallen will be enriched by this major, entirely free update! Enjoy new voice acting with the talented Ben Starr (Final Fantasy XVI, Warframe), a reworked campaign, and face even more formidable creatures armed with 25 new Essence Stones. Persevere in your adventure with the long-awaited "New Game+" feature and challenge the gods with the new Nyaal's Nightmare difficulty mode. Many more surprises and improvements await in this content-rich new version of the game!
“Our team was grateful for the opportunity to further develop Atlas Fallen and to bring a vastly updated version to the players. We listened to the feedback and made a whole series of improvements that we hope will make players enjoy the game even more,” said Jan Klose, Creative Director on Atlas Fallen.
Carry Forward Your Save or Start Anew
Starting August 6, Atlas Fallen evolves into Atlas Fallen: Reign of Sand. As a replacement of the base game, this major, completely free overhaul will be available as an update across all platforms, ensuring that every player, whether they are current, returning or newcomers, can dive into the enhanced version of the game. While you'll be able to carry over progress you made on your old character like equipment and loadouts to Reign of Sand, starting a new playthrough is highly recommended for the optimal experience to fully immerse in the breadth of new features and enhancements.
