Early Access Developer's Note #3

Hello. This is SJGO, the head of development for Dungeon Stalkers.

We are now in the third week of our Early Access launch.

I want to express my sincere gratitude for the incredible amount of diverse feedback you've given us, far more than during any of our previous playtests.

Our entire development team, including myself, treasures every single piece of your feedback and we are striving to implement it to make the game more stable and enjoyable.

First, I'd like to address some of the topics you've been most curious about in this developer's note.

■ Response to Hackers and Unauthorized Software Users

Since launch, we have been dedicating our utmost efforts to blocking unauthorized software and penalizing its users. I'd like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank all the Stalkers who have actively reported users of unauthorized software.

We have been analyzing various hacking methods directly, continuously adding corresponding counter-code, and strengthening our monitoring policies. We now believe that most hack usage is being systematically detected. However, as hackers will continue to find new ways to evade detection, we plan to enhance our logging systems and other measures accordingly. Let me be clear: regardless of the reason, using hack programs will result in penalties, including permanent bans, and we will show no leniency in this matter.

■ Regarding Content Updates

While a more detailed update note will be provided later, I'd like to share some information in advance for those who are curious. We plan to release a variety of new content and systems in a regular content update scheduled for early to mid-September.

• Addition of a New Dungeon Theme[list]
• A new region will welcome you with more diverse treasures and powerful enemies.

• Addition of New Legendary Items[list]
• New Legendary items and Blueprints will be added.

Addition of Skins Purchasable with Adventure Coins

• As requested by many Stalkers , we have decided to add skins that can be purchased with Adventure Coins.

Enhancement of the Secure Inventory and Addition of a Dungeon Reconnect System

• We are planning to improve the issue where items in the Secure inventory are not being saved due to server instability. Additionally, we will be adding the highly requested dungeon reconnect feature.

Matchmaking System Improvements to Help New Players Adapt

Skill Balance Adjustments for Some Stalkers

Addition of a Leaderboard for Competitive (Solo) Mode

We are preparing a wide range of content, so please look forward to it.
