Inkbound is set to receive a some big changes in their next major update, Gods & Relics, which launches today, October 27, 2023, at 12:00 PM ET. This update brings a plethora of new features and improvements to the game, but also delivers on a big monetization change that developer Shiny Shoe announced was coming earlier this month.

Roguelike multiplayer RPG Inkbound is welcoming an abundance of changes in Gods & Relics, which includes two new Aspects (classes): the Chainbreaker and the Godkeeper. The Chainbreaker is a brawler who relies on their fists, utilizing powerful Combo mechanics to defeat their enemies. The Godkeeper, on the other hand, is a spear-based fighter that resembles more of a Spartan Warrior, and defends the written Gods of Yore. With the Godkeeper you’re going to require strategic positioning in order to do the most damage. Both Aspects come with unique unlock quests, and their own aesthetics to wear.

Another major addition to the latest update is the Vestige Set feature, which reworks how players increase power during a run. Each Vestige belongs to one or more sets, and the more you match each set the bigger bonus you get for that Vestige set. This will provide another avenue of complexity related to how you build your character as you progress through a storybook.

The update also introduces 28 Steam Achievements, offering a mix of progression and challenge Achievements for players to pursue.

There were plenty of smaller changes in the update as well. Sea Breaches have been redesigned with stronger rewards and more interesting choices. The Victory Board has been refreshed with 108 new objectives and new cosmetics. Ranks 11 through 20 have been redesigned, and the earlier Ranks have been smoothed out, and
