Now that we won't be in EA anymore, all new updates will be released first in the "Beta" system on Steam, so they can be properly tested before being released to everyone.
Frequently Asked Questions
(Question 1) How many updates will there be for Scarlet Tower in 2024?
We'll release as many bug/ performance fix updates as necessary for the game to run without bugs and at 60 FPS on most devices.
