Holy Hell! That's some crazy news!

The changelog is promising, the devs seem to have modding in mind which is good news.

El Greco is doing a Stream on Twitch, right now. Ugh! The page refuses to load. ^^

Yes, he was one of the testers.

Also a small warning if you play the game now.  When you click on something like a bone pile, etc - RUN! 

[ALEX_CARDO]

Yesterday I saw in Steam there is an update of TQ and I was like WTF This totally changes my gaming plans As they say "Shut up and take my money"

[Prosoro]

so begins a new chapter for our beloved Titan Quest! 2021 and we're still going strong 

[Cygi]

So what about the big mods like Lilith: Battle for Jalavia, are they compatible now?

[Medea Fleecestealer]

Nope, you'll have to wait for them to be updated for the expansion if the creators decide to do that.

[Vio]

True, a good time to finally do that now.
