Hello Settlers!

We are excited to ship our last regular weekly update before the Early Access 48 hours later. We will send in another silent update which would probably do some last-minute bug fixes, other than that, thank you for sticking out for 6 whole months, and supporting us with your engagement in our project.

I want to share that we reached 30,000 wishlists as I write these patch notes, and we are on the Popular Upcoming tab on the homepage of Steam for over 72 hours before release, which is a great visibility boost for Stellar Settlers.

We also have a new trailer up on our Steam page, would love to hear your thoughts on it!

Let's get into the latest updates in this patch;
