Realm of Ink started off on the right foot. It was delayed at first, but that initial caution seems to have paid off, because when it did launch in September, it did so in good shape.
Since the game launched three months ago, the developers at Leap Studio have been putting out a steady stream of updates, and today we got the third big one. It contains new ink gem powers, abilities for the full roster of characters, new Legendary Elixirs, and more than 20 new perks. Here’s the trailer followed by the official word:
- Three New Ink Gem Powers: These powerful additions expand players’ build options, bringing the total number of Ink Gem Powers to 37.
- New Abilities for All 9 Characters: Each of the 9 characters receives 1 exclusive new Ability, further enhancing the diversity of their playstyles.
- 21 New Perks: These additions deepen the build diversity for players, increasing the total number of Perks to 185.
- Legendary Elixir System: A brand-new feature introducing 25 exclusive Legendary Elixirs that significantly enhance specific Ink Gem builds—some to the point of transformational breakthroughs!
- Numerous quality-of-life updates to enhance the Early Access game experience.
There are a couple of additional graphics, which I’ve included for your convenience, but there are much more detailed notes over on Steam, if you want to wade into the weeds and find out everything.
And just in case you don’t have enough spreadsheets in your life, here’s another…
And another…
Yay for spreadsheets! Anyway, Dear Reader, as explained in this post, the December update is intended to be the last major one before release, which will follow next year. Stay tuned for more details soon!
