Gnasherpalooza Update - Cloudheim Update 25 Patch Notes

Today, we celebrate a historic moment in Cloudheim. Gnasher has been eating, growing, and generally thriving. In recognition of these achievements, we are officially declaring today Gnasherpalooza.

To celebrate, you will find Gnasher balloons to decorate with, along with a new surprise for those who have been keeping Gnasher well fed.

This update also introduces Dive Kick improvements, including new movement tech that rewards chaining dive kicks, evades, and jumps to travel faster across the world.

Beyond that, we’ve made improvements across Cloudheim including combat responsiveness, bow accuracy, boss feedback, UI improvements, and many fixes across Arcadia and Odin Shell.

Read on for the full patch notes!
