Shades: Update 0.2.1

Hello!

Today we are glad to tell you about a Shades 0.2.1 update! In this post we will let you know what has changed in a game and what to expect in the future.

Update Highlights:

  • Rework of School of Phoenix shades. Each of the Shades lets you come up with equally efficient battle tactics.
  • New VFX of fire aura. Phoenix spreads its wings above those who took a chance and touched its power in a Shadow Rift.
  • New VFXs for final bosses of acts. Earlier, some of the bosses’ visual effects were modified Shadow Fight 2 effects. New effects were done specifically for them to reflect their personalities and stories.
  • New Act I battle location. Shadow Rift broke the idyllic peacefulness of a secluded mountain village. Now it has become a place of fierce battles.
  • New Rhino and Bird avatars. We decided to try something new and now the inseparable duo is on the same avatar. They would protect each other anywhere!
  • New sound effects. Now a lot of bosses use their abilities with unique sound effects which, as we think, will make fighting them even more exciting.
  • Technical and UI improvements. Small improvements and new icons for bosses’ abilities will help you to understand what’s happening in the game better.
  • Major bug fixes. We fixed several critical bugs and some of them were reported to us by the community. Thank you for your support and indifference!

What’s next?

The main question the community asks is “When will Shades be released in my region?” Do not worry! We will be available in your country. Global release of Shades will happen when we will be sure of the game’s quality and our goal is to make it happen in the second half of this year.

However, this doesn’t mean that there will be no updates for Shades! Before the global launch you can expect new content, balance changes, bug fixes and, most importantly, a new story act—most likely, in the first half of summer.

Stay tuned!
