This update focuses on the Into the Abyss expansion with a new Realm Select, QoL and more.

99% of the below relates to the Into the Abyss Expansion. Notes that affect the whole game will be marked as [All].

New

New Settings

Summary: All the new XP values are higher than before the update.

XP Value Changes
