The game clearly based heavily on Pokémon, and it’s rather popular. The game hit Steam today to a flurry of positive reception and new users. Tens of thousands of new players have flooded the server, just trying to sign up and begin their adventure. Back when we first saw this new open-world MMO game, everyone was hyped for it. And it appears that this hype is pretty universal.
So to keep players happy, the developer just pushed out a new patch, as well as some hotfixes. The hotfixes deployed to deal with some server issues that made it impossible for many players to sign up. The larger patch tweaked a bunch more stuff though. There’s now some rough French, German, Spanish, Japanese, Korean and Simplified Chinese translations in the game, so that’s good.
Various animations and translations have been updated and tweaked, mostly to make the whole thing a little smoother of an experience. Some keybinding changes are also in the game as well. Finally, a handful of bugs and UI issues have been fixed as well. The developer also added a new profanity filter to username creation.
If you’re one of those new players in Temtem, you might be a little lost. If you’re having trouble grasping game mechanics, we have some help for you. Temtem is a monster collecting game very similar to Pokémon, so the there’s the need for a type weakness guide. There’s also a guide on the Starter Temtems.
Check out the full patch notes down below. You can also head over to the official site and see them as well.
