The First Descendant players got a clear and fairly short update in Dev Note Vol.18 today: the in-game trading system will arrive a little later than teased, and the currency used for trade fees has been swapped. The developer is changing the trade fee from Caliber to Gold, and to allow for that adjustment the trading system will now launch with the November 20 update. All other planned updates will still go ahead on November 6.
That shift is the direct result of player feedback shared after the recent developer livestream, and the team posted a short video explaining the change. We previously covered the game’s patch timetable in our earlier schedule story for patch 1.3.7, which outlines the surrounding content and timing that players can expect this month.
Watch the developer video for the Dev Note below.
There are no further mechanical details in the note beyond the currency switch and the new launch date, so players should expect more specific information in future updates or follow-up posts from the team.
Short version – trading delayed, fee moved to Gold, November 6 stays for other fixes and additions, November 20 for the trade system itself.
