We've been building Runeborn for two whole years, and 1.0 is finally here!

Thank you so much for supporting us with our demo and in Early Access. We've tried to implement much of the feedback and fix bugs. We're excited for you to explore the new content. We hope you love it as much as we do :)

• 4 New Runebooks!

• Added Areas! Completing areas with new Runebooks rewards you with permanent Boons!

• New Music

• Steam Achievements

• New Leaderboard server that will allow much larger scores to be submitted

• Enemy and Elite Variants! Each Area has its own pool of Enemies and Elites

• Each Area has its own Leaderboard

• Editions are now unlocked after completing the final Area, to replay that Area with additional modifiers

• Each Runebook now starts with a "Bound" Trinket, which cannot be sold and will grow stronger in your Run

• Shops are now progressively unlocked

• Added Collections to the in-game toolbar

• Never see the same enemy options two levels in a row!  And enemies you fight will no longer show up as options in the same run - doesn't apply in Endless

• Some Challenges/Achievements have been made easier

*** Lots of bug fixes

As we transition from Early Access to our full 1.0 release, we’ve made some adjustments to the early-game flow to ensure a smoother experience for new players.

For our veteran players, this means some shops you previously accessed will need to be re-unlocked. While this might feel like a change of pace, you can get back to your familiar setup by progressing through and completing Area 3.

Why the change? Aside from a more balanced learning curve, we’ve packed the journey with brand-new content for you to discover along the way:

• New Boon System: Harness powerful buffs to boost your build.

• More to Explore: Discover new books, tougher enemies, and entirely new areas.

• Beyond the Horizon: There is now content that goes far beyond what was available in Early Access!

As a bonus, anyone playing with a save from Early Access will have all books unlocked to start playing with from the start! We recommend waiting until you unlock the scroll shop before trying out the Scrollfolio.

Thank you for being part of our journey from the beginning. We can’t wait for you to see how much the world has grown.

If you haven't already, drop us a review on Steam and come hang out with us on Discord.
