Friday Update – PVE is Nearly Here

Hi HEXers! I’m not sure what else can we say—campaign is coming next week! Watch our Facebook and Twitter accounts for all the details on when exactly you’ll be able to create your character and jump into the world of Entrath. On launch day, we’ll have patch notes as well as articles posted throughout the day from members of the HEX team to guide you through this feature release and inform you as to where we’re headed next.

If you’re the type who’s into spoilers, you can take a look at the recorded PC Gamer stream with Cory Jones as they go through campaign below.

Thank you for all your support throughout the development of HEX. If you’ve fallen out of touch with the game as you waited for PVE features, we hope you love it and look forward the game as we build upon this launch.

In preparation for this launch, you will want to download and install HEX this weekend. Now, in fact! Do it!

https://www.hextcg.com/client-download/

If you don’t have an account, you can sign up for one here. http://us.hex.gameforge.com/account.html#/#registration

You might have an account carried over from alpha to beta. If you do, you probably don’t remember your password. You can also reset your password from that page.

If you’re due Kickstarter rewards, we sent those via email as redeemable codes two years ago. They were sent to the email account you used when you backed HEX. If you can’t find that email from us, we can help you get your rewards. You need to first register a new account on the HEX support website. This is separate from your game account. Once in, you’ll want to open a ticket that explains what tier you backed at, your email address, and the Amazon payments or PayPal payments information from that transaction to Cryptozoic Entertainment.

We track which rewards have been provided to players and which ones are still outstanding on this webpage, and we’ll update that page next week when our next round of rewards go out.

After that, you’ll be set for Campaign launch. Get hype because it’s almost here!

Casting Team, Assemble! *conch horn*

The HEX Invitational is happening this March 5th and 6th here at the Esports Arena! If you can make it, you won’t want to miss it. History is going to be made! You’ll be able to see the 12 best HEX competitors in the world battle for their share of the $100,000 prize. We’ll have stations where you can play HEX, you can meet your friends, pick up exclusive tournament gear like the Invitational poster with sleeve, and maybe even get on camera. If you can’t make it, then we’ll have full coverage of the event on our Twitch channel throughout the weekend. Today, we’re happy to announce our casting team. You’ll likely recognize these names from the HEX community: SilentSnake on play-by-play, Dinotropia on color commentary, and Alucard as our reporter!

So, get your ticket and join us this coming March here in Orange County at the Esports Arena or bookmark our Twitch channel to watch this once-in-a-lifetime event! See you there.

Mage Talent

Earlier today, we highlighted the Mage Talent Tree. Director of Game Theory Ben Stoll wrote up a guide to the talents, and HEXTCG Browser created a neat tool that’ll help you plan your character.

Blue Dragon

Here we have Saarthu, who’s going to steal your opponent’s stuff. There aren’t many of these effects in HEX. It takes a dragon’s influence to break allegiances and pull troops, artifacts, constants– anything to your side. When staring down that maw, I can’t imagine anything in Entrath has the bargaining power to turn down Saarthu’s offer to join up. If you want to boost his effects, get some boots for sneaking and gloves for nabbing. You can rush him onto the battle board, then use a bevy of sapphire tricks to abuse the gloves. Everything will be yours for the taking when you bring in Saarthu!

That’s all for this week. Please leave any questions or comments in the forums, and don’t forget to Follow us on Twitter, Like us on Facebook, Follow us on Twitch, and register on our forums.
