As it was written in Homer's Odyssey: etos ilthe periplomenon eniauton, or: "as the year rolled on, the anniversary came".

And so here we are, just over 1 year into the release of PERISH! How did that happen so quickly?

We've shared the ups and downs with you, dear player, as we all shared in dying and dying again to reach the vaulted halls of Elysium, only to be unceremoniously chucked into a fiery lake of punishment by the harsh strictures of King Minos himself.

By this point, it's only fair that we take King Minos down a peg or two.

As a small gesture of thanks to the thousands of you who have played our labor of love and suffered its manifold trials, we have released this kriton of the underworld as a playable character. Judge not lest ye be judged yourself, Mr. Minos.

Perhaps more importantly, PERISH is now officially on consoles! PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S. Controller-dwellers need fear no shame, neither of keyboard nor mouse, as they join the frayed journey towards the judgment of King Minos.

Elsewise, it might seem a tad quiet here at PERISH HQ - after years of development and another five or so months creating the free Exodus DLC, we've had a bit of a break to restock our dwindled supplies of nectar and ambrosia.

Freshly immortalized for the year ahead, I can only offer a nebulous "Keep your eyes peeled!" , but we have still had our ears rotated towards some pressing bugs and issues that we simply could not ignore going into 2024:

• Damn those Kavouraki! These cheeky chitinous tanks have had their health somewhat reduced so that they are less bullet-spongey (still, beware of their impervious armor)
  
• Where's the music? A significant number of players reported that the idryma safe zone music was playing throughout the game instead of the soundtrack for each level; we may have identified a potential fix for this issue and we'd like your help in checking this fix out in the latest build, if you could confirm this for us we'd appreciate it enormously!
  
• Curse these metal hands! Lightning Acolytes are reduced in number during the Aiakos of the Belfry boss fight after we read various reports that their spawning frequency was utterly infuriating: they are not banished entirely though, so still watch out for those red beams
  
• The Emperor's New Pyrius: The Pyrius Grenade Launcher model was invisible in the rotating chest of goodies; it is now, accordingly, not-so-invisible anymore

Once again, we want to thank you, the player: without you, PERISH would not be the delight and the joy that it is for us today thanks to your input and feedback. Please keep the feedback coming because we're here to keep the tweaks and balances rolling in. Cheers!

Full Patch Notes:

• Music should no longer get stuck on the idryma track
  
• Pyrius Launcher and Aegis Shield are no longer invisible in the armaments chest
  
• Kavouraki now have 25% less health
  
• Reduced amount of Lightning Acolytes that can spawn in Aiakos of the Belfry fight
  
• Fixed Pyrius Launcher ADS location
  
• Added new main menu background rotation
  
• Fixed Tartaros spawn director issues when the player count changes during the final battle

Thanks to our partners over at Qualcomm - Perish is showcased at the Unreal Fest 2023 on the latest Snapdragon! Check out the live streams and let us know if you spot PERISH ;)

See you in Elysium Amyetri!

Thank you to everyone who has been enjoying the fresh journeys in PERISH: EXODUS!

For those of you who have just picked up the game in the summer sale, we hope you find your way to Elysium.

We’ve fixed some of the most common issues that have arisen from the last major update, listed below for your perusal:

• Fixed and added a failsafe to the Notus bossfight if he ever loses navigation
  
• Fixed stationary snipers in Aquilo being unstable for clients
  
• Fixed performance issues with the foliage fadeout distance in the Zephyrus landscape
  
• Zephyrus boss health now scales further down when playing solo
  
• Zephyrus now takes slightly less damage from melee weapons
  
• Fixed an issue where Minotauroi could knock around Hound Skull Pyr Portals
  
• Aquilo boss now moves more quickly and attacks more frequently
  
• Fixed Vulturus dialogue lines being inaudible from a distance
  
• Added more healing pools to the Aquilo caves
  
• Fixed an issue where the pre-cave Aquilo fight progress bar started only two-thirds full

As a further service to our dedicated base of underworld explorers, PERISH: Exodus is a completely free content update that exists alongside the main campaign.

In addition to the free content, the main campaign now has safe zone checkpoints, among other improvements!

Turn your back briefly on Elysium to explore the Winds of the Anemoi: four unexplored realms filled with terrific remixes and augmentations of existing weapons, fiendish enemies and boss-fights that are even bigger and more devilish than those in the main campaign.

Meet with Prodromos the Scout, an agile ally who will guide you through four biomes filled with new environmental dangers: searing desert sunshine, blisteringly cold glaciers, toxic effluvia and tempestuous storms.

With the help of the Scout, gather the four shattered pieces of the Aegis Shield, assemble them in the Foundry of Vulturus and challenge an ancient legend to a clash of immense proportions.

Explore a springtime realm that harbours a darker secret hidden beneath its sun-dappled flagstones.
Navigate treacherous glacial valleys and freezing meltwaters to retrieve a shield fragment under the glare of a thawing revenant.
Crumbling columns and turquoise pools scorching in the sun give way to sand dunes that stretch into the horizon, where artefacts lay buried for aeons.
Wade through noxious pools amidst a fierce thunderstorm to find an enormous facility that processes ichor, the lifeblood of the gods and the mechanical creations of Hephaestus.
Scour the lands of the four winds for hidden chests containing advanced weaponry.

Fight fire with fire with the Pyrius Launcher, a hefty grenadier's cannon that was previously the preserve of the Forge Cyclops.

Extend your melee reach and cast enemies aside with a powerful gust of wind when you find Prodromos' lost spear, the Lonkhi.

Double your firepower with the dual-wielded Syntithemi, because two revolvers are better than one.

Reforge the Aegis shield and experience a unique defensive weapon unlike any other!

Fret not, Elysium-seekers: we haven't been resting on our laurels regarding the main campaign. Several key changes and issues have been addressed and will continue to be addressed in future patches.

Let us begin with the most affecting changes to grace the shattered lands of Purgatory.

• Safe zone checkpoints: are you halfway through a decent run, but dinner's ready? Worry no more! Reach a safe zone between levels and your save-game will update at that location. Next time you enter the portal, you can choose to carry on from that checkpoint, or start a fresh run.
  
  
• Weapons unlocked in Exodus, including the laser-reflecting Aegis shield, can be used in the main campaign. Erinyes (or Furies, if you're of a Roman persuasion) be damned!
  
  
• Explore the main campaign levels on the difficulty settings of "Tough" and "Forgiving" to find extra Health Pools. Save an at-risk run by finding a Health Pool to save your bacon and avoid an untimely death in those extra-hard mid-level runs!
  
  
• "Punishing" and "Tartaros" work as originally intended, with no extra Health Pools whatsoever.
  
  
• Similar to the above, Card-Bearers can now be found on all difficulty levels throughout main campaign levels. Gain additional cards during a run to become extra-powerful and hone your session build even more quickly.

We have also been busy fighting a series of major and minor bugs, valiantly exposed and logged by both our fantastic QA team and the worthiest of Elysium-seekers who have helped us identify and track several issues that are now resolved.
