| Hotfix | 2026-03-21 | - Fixed a critical bug in chapter 2. |
| Version 2.0 Released - DLC will be removed | 2026-03-18 | Hello there, for technical reasons and contrary to the original announcement, the Leyline Chronicles Remaster (Version 2.0) will not be released as a separate DLC (the section already visible in the store will be removed); instead, it will be rolled out as a standard update for the main game. Important: Version 2.0 creates new save files, as the old save files are not compatible. For anyone who wants to continue playing the old V1.2 update (and thus also the old save files), the previous version has been placed in the installation folder. From there, the old version can be launched as usual. We apologize for this inconvenience.Best regards |
