Hello vikings!

Hope you’re having a good month of December. We wanted to thank you for all the love and support ːNA_RedHeartːduring this last few weeks and for all the nominations to the Steam Awards, we are filled with gratitude towards you, you’re such an amazing community!

Today we wanted to share a few news about Nordic Ashes.

Placed inside an ancient tower, Nordic Ashes DLC is based on quick combats, around 20-40 seconds, where you will have to wisely choose which items you buy and equip so your build gets stronger and more solid each room you complete.

We will release more info in January, but for now, here's the main screen so you can see what vibe we’re going for.

We’ve always wanted to port our game to other platforms, and we are happy to announce that the first one, Nintendo Switch port, is going really well. We will be able to release it around 1Q-2Q 2025.

Our game will join the Steam sale from today until January 2nd with a 25% off the main game and 10% off for the rest of the items.

Last but not least, our big thank you to all the players and supporters of Nordic Ashes.

Here’s a recap of this year:

• Early Access going strong
  
• 1.0 Game release!
  
• Community has an amazing response :D
  
• Artbook + Soundtrack release
  
• Gnöki came to life in plushie form
  
• Dark Knights support pack available

Hello Vikings!
We’re happy to introduce Winter Festival 2024!

This year’s chosen realm to bear wintery decorations is Niflheim! You will find all the enemies have decided to wear festive costumes too! Like Audubmbla the red nosed Cow, Ice cream icicles or giant Santa elf helpers among others… You will also find some winter themed relics.

Please notice that themed relics will appear more often than regular ones.
On that note, you may disable the Winter event on the Settings panel if you prefer to play regular runs.

Helga will get a new exclusive skin too! And no worries, no FOMO here, as you will also be able to get it after this event ends. But, to make things easy, during this event, just conquer Nifltheim with Helga and you’ll get this gorgeous skin immediately.

This event will be live until January 4th.

Remember we will be holding a 30% discount for Nordic Ashes game, Artbook and Soundtrack until December 4th. Don’t miss this amazing opportunity, as it will be the largest discount of the year!

We hope you enjoy this season!
Cheers!

Hello vikings!
First of all, thanks for your amazing response to the Support DLC! We are extremely grateful :D

Today we wanted to add a few things to last week’s update, so let’s dig in:

You will now be able to play ERROR realm in all Ragnarok levels and on Nightmare mode to experience new levels of craziness.
DLC skins were not supposed to be attached to achievements, and though there were no Steam achievements to complete, there was a bug where achievements appeared on the main game. This has been already fixed.

We are currently working on the Winter Event update, which will be similar to the Halloween one, with winter decorations in one of the realms, winter themed relics and a new skin for one of the characters.
It will be ready in a couple of weeks!

That’s all for today!

Have an amazing rest of the week!
Cheers!

Greetings vikings!

New content now available!
Because we’ve been thinking about releasing this hidden boss for a very long time and now it was perfect timing. Actually, we had this boss in mind since Niflheim release or so. So its been a while ago already hehe.

We’ve discovered a few issues in the Norse Realms. We suspect that a secret boss wishes to challenge all survivors. We’ll need your help to defeat him!
After conquering all realms in Expert level, a secret new realm awaits you. We can’t grant much information about it, but rumors of an error realm have reached us. We hope you all survive this new challenge!
Ragnarok and Nightmare mode will be ready next week!

Since the beginning of the development of this game, many of you have asked for new ways of supporting us. We finally decided to launch this support pack, which will include 5 brand new skins related to the Dark Knight skins we already have.

This pack is COSMETIC ONLY.

Even though we’ve released the 1.0 version of Nordic Ashes, we will still be working on new content like seasonal events, new challenges and more!
We appreciate your support very much!

Thanks again!

Hello vikings!
We have some hot news about Nordic Ashes new content!
We will be talking about new free content, Support Pack release and DLC news too, so let’s get into it!

Get ready for next week’s update:
We’ve discovered a few issues in the Norse Realms. We suspect that a secret boss wishes to challenge all survivors. We’ll need your help to defeat him!
This update will be available next Thursday.

Since the beginning of the development of this game, many of you have asked for new ways of supporting us. We finally decided to launch this support pack, which will include 5 brand new skins related to the Dark Knight skins we already have.

This pack is ONLY COSMETIC and will be released next week as a purchase DLC.
Thank you always for being so supportive! ːNA_RedHeartː

You may take a look at the new skins below!

As we posted on the roadmap, the DLC was supposed to be released this month.
However, it’s going to take some time until we finish developing it, so we decided to postpone its release date around March 2025.
In exchange, we will still be posting some cool stuff like the ERROR realm next week, a winter season with new character skin and winter decorations on December, etc.
Thanks for your comprehension!

We will see you next week!
Cheers! ːNA_Gnokiː

Hello vikings!
Today’s post is about a few patches we’ve been releasing this week. We’ve been fixing the following:

• Alruna will be less painful to unlock. You will need to reach Talkôr’s chamber before the final boss with at least 1 ice heart, not defeating the boss as it used to be.
  
• Visual bug in the character selection panel, where the selected character could appear behind the others.
  
• Secret characters and their skins were showcased in black. After unlocking them, their skins will now be shown in grey, not black.
  
• After unlocking Lorcan and entering a run, the playable character would be the previous on you had selected.
  
• Halloween weapon Fear Skullcap alpha now works properly.
  
• The explanation on how to unlock the second ascension of Ancestral Relics has been improved.
  
• Small translation fixes in various languages.

We will be reading all your messages, suggestions and reports.
Have a great weekend! ːNA_Gnokiː

Hello Vikings!

We were planning to update with the Halloween event in a couple weeks but then we thought… why wait?
So let us introduce the Spooky Season to Nordic Ashes! This event will last from October 4th until November 3rd.
In addition to last year’s spooky Midgard, this year you will also be able to play Helheim (if it wasn’t eerie enough lol). Both realms will be decorated in a spooky way and enemies will have ghostly costumes. (You will be able to see what Hel looks like beneath her mask!).

This year’s skin will belong to Blud! Just win a run on Helheim using Blud to unlock it. And no worries, as after the event you will still be able to get it.

Spooky themed relics will make an appearance again, we’ve added a new one so there will be a total of 5 relics.

Please notice that themed relics will appear more often than regular ones.
On that note, you may disable the Halloween event on the Settings panel if you prefer to play regular runs.


Thanks so much for reporting all the following issues! We will keep an eye on your feedback :D

• Odin's ravens now disappear when switching to the Dark phase
  
• Lorcan’s Ultimate ability could crash the game, now it’s fixed
  
• Lorcan skins had the wrong sounds
  
• Lorcan card sounds improved
  
• Lorcan’s cards could appear behind objects
  
• Lorcan's summons were not having their alpha applied
  
• Small texts fixes
  
• Ascended Brok's Bazooka manual aiming was not working properly
  
• The discord button could be changed to the enter button, which could cause it to continually open.

We hope you enjoy this season, we had a ton of fun designing everything.
Cheers!

Hello vikings!
At last, the day has come… new character is joining ranks!

Let’s welcome Lorcan, master of Luck! Lorcan the Conqueror, Lorcan founder of Lorcanism, Lorcan master of Dice… well, he may be a BIT narcissist. Just a tiny bit.
However, he won't show up until you reach Vanaheim.

*** SPOILER ALERT ***
If you didn't guess how to unlock Lorcan here is the answer:
He's quite fond of himself and loves it when people look up to him. Select Lorcan in the character selection panel and wait for 25 seconds to unlock him.
Lorcan’s will be introducing Luck to Nordic Ashes.

Luck will determine if abilities based on % can have an extra roll. For example, if an effect would occur with 15% chance and it doesn't, with 1 Luck point you will gain an extra roll of 15% chance and therefore that effect will be more likely to occur.

Obviously, Lorcan will be Luck boosted so probabilities happen more often.
Relics affected by luck will have a clover icon next to them.

And of course, don't forget to check Lorcan's skins too!

This Lucky Clover will be your best friend when related to luck. You may unlock this relic thanks to Lorcan.

When used, you will get 1 extra Luck Point temporarily.

10 new kinds of challenges have been added. You will find new Blessings that will boost your runs.
We've also imporoved some of the existing challenges so they are more fun.


We know many of you had some leaves left that wouldn't fit anywhere. With the addition of Lorcan, more leaves will be generated. To solve this issue, we've added a few new levels to existing perks such as crit. damage, movement speed, etc. A total of 120 new leaves to add to Yggdrasil!

• Some curses would make you inflict negative damage and this could break the game. Minimum damage you will now inflict is 1.
  
• The Burden of Greed Curse will now reduce damage by 2.5% for each relic you own instead of 5%
  
• Some shrines could appear on top of you.
  
• Stats appearing on the left side of the screen have been reordered so they fit better on screen.
  
• Odin’s ravens could, in some cases, appear on Odin’s second phase.
  
• Dutch translations updated.
  
• Czech translations updated.

On October we will be releasing a new Halloween update. This time Helheim will join Midgard with spooky decorations, both on the realm and on monsters.
Halloween weapons will return and a one of the characters will get a new skin. Can you guess who?
We couldn't resist posting Malurt the Moth Queen on her Halloween costume. She looks much nicer this way.

Nordic Ashes will be having a 2-week sale with 25% off!

We will be reading all your messages, suggestions and reports. Cheers! ːNA_Gnokiː
