War for the Overworld

v2.0.3: “Effectively Explored Excavations”

Release Notes

Darkest Greetings Underlord,

Another Maintenance Patch for War for the Overworld is making the rounds across the dark caverns of the Internet. But just because it’s now long-term maintenance for the foreseeable future doesn’t mean we can’t have some fun.

Today we bring you some additional voices for units which have long wished upon a star for some lines of their own and this is just the beginning we expect there will be more to come in future patches.

As always please keep all your feedback coming via the forums and of course report any issues to us via User Echo!

Now without further a do, read on for the Release Notes!
