Eternal Strands Reveals Future Update Plans

Eternal Strands just rolled out its update plans, giving players a look at what’s coming down the line. The 2025 roadmap is packed tight, and Yellow Brick Games is gearing up to drop new content, improve gameplay, and introduce some extra challenges to keep Eternal Strands fresh and engaging.

The action-adventure game Eternal Strands launched on January 28, 2025, and has players take on the role of Brynne, a Weaver who aims to reclaim her people’s lost cultural home. She seems to come from the Enclave, an ancient civilization that shut itself off from the outside world a long time ago. To help build excitement, the developers released a demo of Eternal Strands on January 21, 2025, giving players an early taste. Yellow Brick Games also spelled out several features, including gear customization, a shifting day-night cycle, a crafting setup, and much more, all lined up to help Eternal Strands have a strong launch.

Eternal Strands: How To Resist Hot And Cold Temperatures

Using Cold/Hot Resist materials in crafting is key to taking less effect from extreme temperatures in Eternal Strands.

Now, Eternal Strands has dropped the 2025 roadmap, and the first major update, arriving in March, is tackling movement tweaks players have been clamoring for. Fans called out Brynne’s slippery controls, and while the Eternal Strands‘ physics-heavy gameplay still shapes her acceleration, deceleration, and responsiveness, Yellow Brick Games is aiming to improve things. Post-update, Brynne will reach her target speed and come to a stop more quickly, reducing the “skating” effect. Also, direction shifts will feel more responsive, making movement more intuitive without compromising the game’s physics-driven design.

Eternal Strands 2025 Roadmap

Eternal Strands’ combat is getting a boost as well. Enemies will react more quickly and noticeably to hits, plus there’s a new directional hit reaction system for more realistic feedback. Some weapons, like the Two-Handed Blade and Sword & Shield, are receiving speed and consistency tweaks to make them more effective in combat. Players will also notice stronger impact VFX, added controller vibration, and a change in the death penalty, no more losing loot from accidental falls, which should make those risky climbs and jumps feel less punishing.

Eternal Strands will also drop a free DLC update in Spring 2025, created in partnership with concept artist Yusuke Mogi. This update will introduce a fresh armor set, weapon skins, a new map, and even an additional magic power. Plus, players will be able to dye their armor and weapons, check out Oria’s tips and tricks, and enjoy a bunch of bug fixes. And looking ahead to Summer 2025, there’s more content in the works, including a mysterious collaboration with Grasshopper Manufacture. With all these updates shaped by player feedback, it’s obvious the team behind Eternal Strands is committed to making the game better.
