We’ve introduced a lot of new gameplay features and story content for the past couple of months. With the end of the year fast approaching, it’s been a very busy and exciting time for Grand Guilds.

I know this is not good news for the people who are highly anticipating the game, but I do believe that this is the right decision. The last thing we want to do is release an unpolished and buggy game. We want everyone to enjoy the game from the get-go.

Speaking of releases, we just updated the Beta Backers version on Steam. New story content is available along with a dozen new cards. The enemy AI has also been improved, adding new and interesting abilities to their decks.
