Major Update: 1.2.105

Thanks to everyone who's continued playing Aether & Iron and sharing your feedback with us.

Today we're excited to release Version 1.2.105 - our next major post-launch update. Alongside more performance improvements, controller refinements, and bug fixes, this update also introduces our first new narrative content since launch.

You'll now find 9 new mini quests spread across White Street, Dreamland, and Nations Crusade, giving you even more reasons to visit each barony. We've also hidden cats throughout the city for keen explorers to discover. Find them all to unlock a brand-new achievement!

As always, we'll continue listening to your feedback and improving the game with future updates.
