Klei Entertainment’s Rotwood launched into early access last Friday and garnered quite a strong reception, with over 200,000 players. However, there were multiple complaints regarding its difficulties (known as enemies) and certain enemies. Patch [605165] went live recently to adjust these but also added a Rotwood Public group for players to match with.
It allows for matching with players in the same region and a similar progression level, making it easier to find teammates. As for the Frenzy changes, Frenzy 1/2/3 adds increased cooldowns so enemies can’t attack so soon after spawning. The Rot and Imbued Rot aggression in Frenzy 2/3, and the amount of potential Imbued Rots in each encounter, has also reduced.
Imbued Rots also no longer have hitstun resistance, while the Imbued Mossquito and regular Mossquito move slower. Check out the full patch notes below. If you’re seeking more challenges, don’t worry, as the Frenzy mechanic will be expanded upon in future updates.
Rotwood is currently available for PC via Steam Early Access. Though its early access duration is unknown, it could remain for a year or two, depending on Klei.
