We’ve just released a major update for Samurai’s Path.

This update fixes several issues that were preventing chests and katanas from dropping, along with a handful of other minor bugs. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and want to thank everyone for your patience.

Mission drops have been reworked. Missions are no longer tied to a timer expiring. Instead, they now drop randomly over the course of a few hours while the game is kept open. This change allows us to reliably guarantee chest drops.

The Founder’s Quest has also been updated. On your first launch after purchase, you will now receive:

  • A unique katana
  • ⁠One additional mission slot

(for a total of four) - EXTRA PERK The passive ability to drop chests directly by keeping the game open, with a 20% chance for the chest to be a Pearl Chest. (this stacks with the normal drop of quests)

We want to sincerely thank everyone who played Samurai’s Path despite the early issues ❤️ Your support truly means a lot to us.

Please know that we are actively continuing development. Several important updates are on the way, and we’ll be sharing a roadmap soon to show what’s coming next.

See you soon.
