Welcome back, knights!

We hope you have enjoyed playing Knight vs Giant: The Broken Excalibur so far. Have you slain its many giants yet, or did you get slain? Whichever way your quest went, we come bearing some good news!

Today, we're releasing the new content update 1.0.5 that adds another feature to help you triumph in your adventures: Runes!

Runic powers

Runes come in the form of small stones that drop after you slay powerful enemies, such as mini bosses and giants. You may also come across them while clearing a crystal room, or when taking down the elite enemies added in the previous patch.

Should you choose to pick up a rune, they will bestow an upgrade upon Arthur's stats, such as his HP or movement speed, granting you better chances of surviving your battles against fearsome foes!

Make your choice

Sometimes, runes will drop in a group of two, or even three. It's up to you to choose the rune that fits your battle plans best. Should you go for more critical damage, or perhaps go for strengthening your sword attack? It's up to you to make the most out of the runes at hand.

See below for the full list of features and fixes coming with the new update:

Update 1.0.5

New Feature:

  • Implemented the new Runes mechanic

  • Runes are collectible items that will occasionally drop after the player defeats certain enemies or clears certain rooms

  • Runes have various effects that will temporarily increase Arthur's stats while inside the dungeon

Improvements & Balancing:

  • Improved minion AI behaviour

  • Displayed minion stagger bar below their health bar (minions can now be staggered after filling their stagger bars with attacks and certain skills)

  • Minor performance improvement

  • Added more elite enemy attack patterns

We hope the rune system will make your journey into the Astral Dimension even more satisfying and exciting, as you can further equip Arthur with the tools you need to emerge victorious. Give it a try and we'll see you soon with more updates.

As always, if you do have any comments or issues please let us know via the Steam forums or alternatively join our Discord where we’ll be happy to chat!

Fare thee well!
