Thank you for your visit. I am Lee Yunseok, creator of YGGDRASIL STUDIO. I've updated the KNDW V1.0.9c Pre-Release on Oct 3, 2015. This update was only uploaded on steam.

Why the sudden Pre-Release?

I will finish this work soon. And the agreement with GRAC will be completed soon(this month). Then, I will have to work for the rest of DLCs and the MOD(Steam Workshop) support, Simplified Chinese language support.

From now on, the game will set to default release a week later from the pre-release. I will update the game for pre-release, and check that there are no problems for playing in different environments. So, now you can opt into the beta branches. Also I preparing the TEEN version for PC and Mobile/Tablet, OUYA(Razer Forge TV).

How to opt into the Pre-Release in the Steam Client?
