The commerce is doing well and your clan has secured what they needed for the coming winter. Yet, as the foresters tend to the saplings you are left to wonder - what your foes will come up with next spring? Northfolk! Time has come for the pre-anniversary update that we have teased some time ago and as the name suggests you can expect another big update in June. However, let's not get ahead of ourselves and focus on what the team has brought for you. AI Update and AI Archetypes We have made significant steps in the department of AI with our previous updates - albeit not without hiccups. Staying true to our promise, we are continuing to improve the experience of playing against AI. With the addition of the archetype system we aim to deliver a more varied experience to skirmishes. Marketplace and forester Besides the AI improved, we have added a new building, the forester’s hut, and added a new functionality to an already existing one, the marketplace. The forester will play a key part in regrowing the woodline. From the marketplace you will be able now to send resources to different players. Other quality of life improvements Apart from the above mentioned changes, you will also find a plethora of new additions, such as new cursors and build menus. For the full list, see the changelog below. 1.4 Changelog New Features: New building - Forester Added setting allowing to place multiple building at once Marketplace system rework Technology Tree Preview in codex Palisade Placement Panel Resources production info in building panel Multiplayer resource transfer with marketplace Bugfixes: Fixes for notifications showing up even when disabled Numerous mistakes and linguistic improvements Fixed issues with endless waves in MP load Fix for naval units getting stuck near shore in some cases Fixed multiple survival mode issues on generated maps Fixed Audio still playing on 0% Improvements for camera movement in photomode Fixed storm during Ragnarok Multiple campaign improvements Don't be a stranger - come to the Hyperstrange Publisher Sale! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40033268/adfaa02368bfdb1bccd2d2d4ffa9b28cf1e89a48.png As the winter months slowly subside, one final celebration should be in order. And what better way to celebrate than with fun and games - especially games!

Paranoid Interactive & HyperstrangeFrozenheim v 1.3 - Jarl’s Tournament UpdateDec 20, 2022 - Community AnnouncementsAs dark clouds gather in the skies, so do the clans on the Fjords of Midgard. They all have come to answer the Jarl’s challenge. Many have risen to the occasion, but only one will prevail. Now Thor is beating his hammer and thunder rains down, for the Jarl’s tournament has begun. Northernfolk! In the last update we have teased a bit of what we have in store for Frozenheim’s future and today it is time to make a part of that promise a reality with the 1.3 patch. As with the previous patch, we have first and foremost looked into your feedback and tried to implement as much as possible and as an additional holiday treat we have added brand new playable content for you, which we hope will bring you joy this winter! Let’s take a brief look at two new major additions in the newest patch - The Jarl’s Tournament and the Weather system. What is the Jarl’s Tournament? It is a new and dynamic game mode which forgoes base building in favor of quick, tactical skirmishes on a specially crafted arena map. Instead of gathering resources and building structures, players will gain each round a limited amount of gold that they can spend on recruiting and upgrading their units and heroes. Once their brand new fighting force is ready, it is time to test its capability against forces of other players or AI opponents. To the victor go the spoils and each victorious player will have a chance to regroup and adapt their warband. This will continue until there is only one warband standing in the arena of the Jarl’s Tournament! New weather system We have added a new weather system that enriches the current seasons system that you are already familiar with. Each season, you will encounter varying weather conditions that can either be beneficial or hinder your progress, should you ignore the forecast. Utilize fog to sneak through the enemy lines, take to the seas and set sails with favorable winds or dig in to avoid an incoming snowstorm. These are just a few examples of what the new weather system offers - the rest is for you to discover. 1.3 Changelog New Features: Jarl’s Tournament Mode. Added map Ratatoskr’s Course. Added map Odin’s Spear. Added new weather effects. Main menu visuals rework. Added automatic placement toggle to production buildings. Added minimap filters. Added Building placement tips to the building panel. Added an icon for units hidden in the forest. Added new ping types and ping panel. Pings are visible in the game world. Added missing tooltips. Added Minimap maximize option. Added campaign mission difficulty levels. Changed unit tooltip parameter display to numerical values. Added an icon informing about the amount of resources being produced in building. Added ability to cast skills on unit portraits. Added missing tooltips. Added an improved management panel for gates. Added register panel for units. Tech tree rebalance. Added custom settings for notification display. Added skill “Barrage” to slinger unit Added notification for weather events. Added ...Coming up in Frozenheim 1.3 updateNov 22, 2022 - Community AnnouncementsNorthernfolk! We're happy to see that the latest AI-focused update to Frozenheim greatly improved your experience with the campaign and custom scenarios. We know there are some quirks that yet need to be iron-out, but we're satisfied with the outcome of this deep rework, that affects the very basics of the game. With that, it's time to continue with smaller, much needed improvements. We're not planning to share a particular roadmap, as our experience so far dictates to keep the balance of our work leaning towards working with your suggestions. We're always looking forward to more feedback. This is a journey we're taking together with the players! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40033268/e3c2218e042a4bf4c6b76988519dedda557c9bea.png The rough launch date for 1.3 has been set to December 19.

This is the first of two such updates slated for the upcoming few months. It will be followed by a large-scale content update (or an Anniversary Update, as we like to call it) that will take Frozenheim to version 1.5. The saga continues!

We know many of you were left with an appetite for improvement an polish after the 1.0 version of the game was brought to you in June. Looking at the comments and reviews we decided to go for a deep and thorough makeover of the game's core systems, rather than focusing on quick and superficial fixes. The upcoming ver. 1.1 - expected to arrive early in November - will bring about a grounds-up rework of the AI in the game, among many other, smaller QoL improvements. Join the playtest! With that, the good folks at Paranoid Interactive would like to heartily invite EVERYONE to an open playtest, aimed to provide player feedback to 1.1 ahead of it's official release. That's correct - not only the owners of Frozenheim will be eligible to participate in the playtest. We want to have some fresh blood sinking into the frozen soil of the Northland as well... {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40033268/7623007ede4db5ceb98a1ff0058a1c5cfeb784c7.png The playtest is starting shortly (might even happen tomorrow!) and you can already apply for participation by clicking the Request Access button in the "Join the Playtest" widget (or "join the uninitialized", whenever the Steam client acts up) on the Frozenheim Storepage. With the 1.1 Playtest release we'll be notifying you of all the ways you can provide your feedback to the Frozenheim dev and QA teams (there will be a feedback form available and we'll be prioritizing the input coming through there). That's it for today, please apply for the playtest if you want to help us to... Make Odin proud!
