Godus v2.0 Update Is Now Live

The Godus v2.0 update has been a long while coming but the development team are hoping players will think the wait is worth it. This update includes a complete overhaul of some key features in the game and is based around feedback from Steam users currently playing the early access version. The video above showcases some of the new features and talks more about the decisions to rebuild key aspects of the game. Below are the highlights of the new patch. Full patch notes can be found here.

New interfacing with the world - The new design offers less clicking and more holding and dragging.

Improved Sculpting - Sculpting should be more responsive.

Introducing the Leash - No more totem power. You can now hold and drag to move any number of followers around the world.

Complete redesign of the cards system - Players will now discover cards across a timeline and unlock them by applying stickers that are found in the world.

Brand new GUI implementation - A more intuitive and beautiful interface await you.

Voyages of Discovery - A brand new game mode where you must guide your Followers across uncharted lands against the clock.

Explore a new Homeworld.- A completely re-authored landscape to explore.

New God Powers - Put out fires and increase the beauty of trees with the Rain of Purity, or customise your world by planting trees with the God Seed power.

Re-engineered Follower Behaviour.

Player can also expect countless redesigns, gameplay tweaks, and bug fixes. 

However such a major redesign has meant the developers have taken out the aspects of the game they feel aren’t quite up to the quality of the new refinements. These features are:

• Story mode
• Battles
• Meteor
• Hubworld
• Extra ages
• Extra Settlements

These features are being worked on and will likely be reintroduced when they meet the same standards as the rest of v2.0.

Head over to Steam to pick up the update and see the new improved Godus for yourself.
