Sea of Stars: Dawn of Equinox Update, a New Era of Co-op and Combat Awaits

Gather ’round as we unravel the latest saga from Sabotage Studio, who recently dropped a major update for their critically acclaimed RPG Sea of Stars. The Dawn of Equinox update goes live today and promises to revolutionize your gaming sessions with exciting new features like a 3-player co-op and an overhauled combat system. So grab your controllers because this will be a wild ride!

Thierry from Sabotage took center stage to share some juicy details about brewing since the game launched. It’s been a whirlwind year filled with relentless coding sessions, countless bug fixes, and just enough caffeine to fuel a small nation. And let me tell you, they’ve pulled out all the stops for this one!

Updates Galore!

Let’s kick things off with what’s new in general updates. Apart from an avalanche of bug fixes that any player would appreciate (seriously, those pesky little gremlins), players can now enjoy a bonus pre-rendered cinematic cutscene. That’s right, those moments when you fire up your console should now be even more cinematic! Plus, they revamped the game’s first hour by injecting combat animations for our young heroes.

This change means goodbye to that clunky flashback structure we knew too well. It’s time for action right at the intro! But wait, there’s more! They’ve also introduced difficulty presets (because not everyone wants to feel like they’re playing Dark Souls on crack), added shiny new Relics for customization buffs, and rolled out a community-driven Speedrun Mode that’ll have speedrunners drooling.

Combat 2.0: Leveling Up Your Battles

The heart-thumping excitement continues with Combat 2.0, a term that sounds fancy but delivers real results. Two Major changes are making waves here: <strongSticky Combo Points and Mystery Locks. Let’s break it down:

  • Sticky Combo Points: Gone are the days when combo points vanished after each battle, like my hopes during ranked matches! Now they stick around post-fight, allowing players to unleash combos with finesse instead of fumbling around like a toddler trying to walk.
  • Mystery Locks: This feature introduces intrigue into enemy encounters by hiding damage types required to break spells until you try different attacks. It’s like dating, sometimes you need to figure out what clicks before committing!

The result? More spells are flying through the air than ever before! Expect tougher battles that demand strategy rather than mindless button-mashing because it’s not just about how hard you hit. It’s about knowing when to reveal those mysterious locks while dodging gnarly enemy moves.

Couch Co-op: Bring Your Friends Along!

If you’ve ever dreamed of tackling Sea of Stars with friends beside you or across state lines via Share Play, your dreams have come true! Sabotage went all-in on this feature despite challenges involving cutscenes and interactive elements breaking left and right if multiple players had full control.

The result? A fully-fledged three-player mode where teamwork makes the dream work! In combat scenarios initiated by simply touching enemies or projectiles (yes!), players can take turns picking actions randomly while dishing out Team Blocks and Team Hits that’ll make every encounter feel epic, not only do you fight together but celebrate victories together too!

You know what else? Outside combat brings freedom, the kind where all three players can run amok in the world without restrictions. Climbing mountains or fishing together has never felt so good or chaotic! Not forgetting our high-five mechanic that gives both speed boosts AND bragging rights!

A Glimpse Into The Future

The team isn’t stopping here. Oh no, they’re already gearing up for the upcoming free DLC Throes of the Watchmaker, set for release in Spring 2025! Talk about keeping us on our toes.

If you’re ready to dive back into this mesmerizing universe and trust me, whether it’s your first playthrough or diving back in, we hope you’ll relish everything Sea of Stars has become post-update. So gear up, adventurers; exciting times await as Dawn of Equinox is available now on PS4 and PS5. Safe travels through pixelated realms!
