Wartales, the open-world RPG developed by Shiro Games, is finally out of early access. This game is currently being offered at a discounted price, so if you want to get your hands on it, you can purchase it on Steam for 25% less.

Anyway, the launch update introduced a new region called Alazar, where a plague caused by the All-Seeing Eye has ravaged the land. It is up to you and your band of mercenaries to put an end to it. Additionally, the game is now fully voiced in English, so you can enjoy the dialogue as you progress through the campaign.

Aside from the new content, the launch update also implemented a ton of improvements. For one, the unit level cap is increased to 12, though monsters will still be challenging to defeat because their cap is two levels higher than yours at 14.

Additionally, the overall look of the game is improved. As you will soon notice, your backpacks now evolve as you wear new equipment. The better your gear is, the more elaborate your backpacks will be!
