Dear Brave Adventurers,

Merry Christmas! To celebrate this festive season, we’re thrilled to roll out our latest update, v1.1.4, packed with holiday cheer. Log in to the game within the next week to claim exclusive reward items waiting for you in the Monastery’s treasure chest. These festive goodies will be distributed gradually, so don’t miss out!

We’re also excited to share a major announcement: the Sandbox Mode Beta is now open for testing! Since launching Arena Mode in May, we’ve received fantastic feedback from the community. Players have loved tackling Arena bounties to earn Abyss Crystals, upgrading weapons, and honing combat skills in Free Mode. However, we’ve also heard your calls for a faster, more accessible experience—a Sandbox Mode where you can dive straight into the action without progressing through the storyline.

In Sandbox Mode, you’ll have immediate access to a diverse arsenal of weapons, ready to equip and wield without crafting costs or material requirements. If you’ve played Story Mode, all your unlocked armor, weapon components, necklaces, and more will carry over to Sandbox Mode, letting you customize your warrior to your heart’s content.

It’s been a full year since Grimlord’s official launch, and our passion for this project remains as strong as ever. Despite facing challenges, we’re grateful for the unwavering support from our platform and community. That said, we must acknowledge that some objectives from last year’s Roadmap were not met due to unforeseen circumstances. We’re revising the Roadmap and will share an updated version soon. Rest assured, every plan listed reflects our commitment to making Grimlord the best it can be.Thank you for your continued support, and we wish you a joyous holiday season!
