Developer V2C Posted Thursday at 05:05 PM Developer Share Posted Thursday at 05:05 PM Everyone's favorite soulless automaton is due for an upgrade to ensure their reign of terror over the innocent organics of the Constant continues. WX-78 Skill Spotlight The WX-78 skill spotlight is now available on Steam. We want to give shadow affinity part of the skill tree a little more time in beta, and we'll hotfix it in as soon as we have it ready for you. We'll need a few more days for console since we need a new build for console that holds off the shadow affinity portion of the tree. We expect this to be released for console on Monday. We apologize for the inconvenience here, but we think it's worth it for us to make sure Shadow Affinity meets our expectations. Highlights - WX-78 Skill Tree added. - WX-78 base Circuit system expanded to 3 bars. - Added several new Circuits. - Now that Year of the Clockwork Knight is over, players will be limited to 2 (or 3 for WX-78) of each type of Clockwork followers at a time. New Skins! “WX-78 Pretty Dark Idolatry Chest” ($5.99usd) This chest contains the WX-78 Pretty Dark Things Chest, and WX-78's complete set of Archaic skin items. New Streaming Drops The “Butterbee" skin for the Beebox has been added to the Chitinous Collection. Check out this post for details. “Mixing honey and butter, who would have thought?” Our Ambassadors have also been given a bunch of new codes to give away. Including Starter Packs, and two new Resurrected skins, the Resurrected All-Chemical Engine and Nightmarish Magician's Chest! Login Reward If you missed it, we added the Pantomimed Backpack as a login reward on April 1st. Just log in to the game to get yours! Roadmap! If you haven't seen it yet, our 2026 roadmap can be found here. And that's it for now! We're finishing up WX-78 and moving on to the Shadow Arc Finale that will be released with our 10 years of DST / 20th Anniversary celebration during Klei Fest in June. See you next time!

VaskalRascal Posted Thursday at 05:35 PM Share Posted Thursday at 05:35 PM (edited) I'm a little confused, didn't the All-Chemical Engine and Nightmarish Magician's Chest come out only 2 years ago from the Youtooz? I'm sure there were much older skins that could've been resurrected instead.

I'm sure there were much older skins that could've been resurrected instead. I believe it depends not on age of the skin, but its availability. I don't follow this stuff closely, but I assume the merchandise that was associated with the 2 skins is no longer sold?

GrapeVruit Posted Thursday at 06:18 PM Share Posted Thursday at 06:18 PM Is there any way to play on the previous build before the clockwork changes?

Zima Blue Posted Thursday at 07:29 PM Share Posted Thursday at 07:29 PM Really happy that the Youtooz skins are being sold! Thank you so much for this Klei, appealing to FOMO as a way to sell skins is such a low marketing strategy, I really admire you guys ethics. I say this having bought 2 youtooz already (Maxwell and Wickerbottom). Sending you guys a lot of love 1 Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/170919-the-wx-78-skill-spotlight-update-is-now-mostly-available/#findComment-1862652 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrixGoBrrr Posted Thursday at 08:24 PM Share Posted Thursday at 08:24 PM might just be that it's an animated short alongside an update? vs the animated shorts from intermissions often being mostly (or entirely) story-telling, like the recent Smallbird + Beardlord short from the March intermission Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/170919-the-wx-78-skill-spotlight-update-is-now-mostly-available/#findComment-1862696 Share on other sites More sharing options...
