Welcome to the first major content patch for Project Warlock II Early Access!
As always, thanks for the constant feedback, comments, messages, Discord chats, and Steam reviews as they help us shape Project Warlock II into a better game. Please keep them coming!
As we have mentioned in the latest patch notes:
All game saves will become incompatible with new versions of Project Warlock II starting with this update
It’s a necessary downside of how the game’s structure is changing during the Early Access.
Moving onto the changelog, it is a big one, so buckle up.
