Moving to a Weekly Update Schedule

Hi Vitarians! We have an update regarding our plans for our game update/release schedule.

Since we opened the game into a Closed Beta, we've been rapidly iterating based on feedback and bugs. This has been leading to many updates - sometimes several a day - and has allowed us to move fast and get your thoughts faster. Though, with us now in a public beta and as we are now growing and have people online 24/7, we appreciate this can mean unexpected server restarts, additional downloads, and interrupt your game. Whilst expected during a Beta phase, it can become frustrating or even confusing.

Going forward, to add a bit more structure and consistency to this, we are going to be moving to a Weekly Release Schedule! This means every Wednesday you can reliably expect a new game update to be released. The updates will vary - some may be small, large, focus on specific things like new features or bug fixes.

The exception to this will be if any game-breaking or serious bugs are discovered which are impacting gameplay, security, etc.

We will aim to perform around 06:00am-07:00am UTC/GMT every Wednesday, unless otherwise communicated. During this, you will be able to expect the server to go offline and a new game update to release via the launcher. Once we are confident everything is ready, we will upload a blog post with all of the details.

We look forward to moving to this next stage as we standardise the release cadence, and look forward to the Weekly Update Day!
