Repeated intro

Hey everyone! As you know, Canada is famous for its nice and warm weather (especially in the winter). We wouldn’t want to keep it for ourselves, so we make constant efforts to share it with more people around the globe. Today, we are happy to announce that a new Kona update is now live, and it includes Simplified Chinese localization, bringing the game’s famous blizzard on more screens! To celebrate, Kona will be 40% off as part of the Daily Deals! The sale starts at 1:00 PM ET! The patch also contains small bug fixes and optimizations. There is only one significant change (except for SC) in the patch: we changed the way “visions” are triggered. The reason is mostly tied to the end of the game, so we will not explain it here to avoid spoilers. If you really want to know, please let us know in the comments and we’ll create a sticky thread in the forums.

addedComing Next: Russian LocalizationAs you probably know, localization can be really expensive (both in time and money), which is why Russian language is not in the game yet. So why is Simplified Chinese language in the game before Russian? We had a generous opportunity for Simplified Chinese localization, which made it possible for us to add it in the game first. We understand that it’s been a few months since the game’s official release, and we would like to thank you for your patience. Rest assured that today’s update didn’t delay Russian localization, which will be added in Kona by Q4 2017.
