Unicorn Overlord Reveals Update 1.04 Patch Notes

Unicorn Overlord received the 1.04 update with bug fixes, performance enhancements, stability improvements, and new features. Unicorn Overlord puts players in charge of managing units in small armies, and the latest update makes it easier to select said units while improving the information displayed in a squad.

Unicorn Overlord has earned rave reviews from critics. The developer said it spent every dollar developing Unicorn Overlord for about ten years, but it paid off, as the game has already sold over 500,000 units. Unicorn Overlord sets the player in the middle of a war and takes them to explore a fantastical medieval world with a battalion. As they venture, it’s possible to recruit numerous new allies, unlock and upgrade settlements, build rapport with group members, and evolve character classes. The tactical aspect of the game lies in managing and assembling squads since, in battle, each member acts automatically according to the chosen strategy.

Unicorn Overlord’s 1.04 update further enhances the game’s tactical gameplay. As the army grows, it becomes difficult to manage all the allies. The new patch adds a feature to select units individually, which should streamline the process. It will also be possible to re-challenge some stages on the map, similar to the game’s repeatable auxiliary battles. However, the patch note doesn’t clarify what these new repeatable stages will be.

Other updates include adding additional items to the options, improving Unicorn Overlord’s army sorting function, and bettering the information displayed on units and battle screens, such as buffed status changes after equipping multiple weapons and shields. However, the patch notes are pretty vague about these improvements or new features, and it will be necessary to play the game to find out. There were also bug fixes, but it’s not mentioned which bugs have been squashed.

Vanillaware is steadily updating and enhancing Unicorn Overlord and is expected to continue doing so for quite a while. The game is one of the highest-rated games of 2024 and has been gaining fans over time. One of the most captivating features of the tactical RPG is that the player’s choices can influence who joins the team and the outcome of certain missions.

This branching can lead Unicorn Overlord’s playtime to balloon to hundreds of hours, especially for those who want to see everything the game offers. Trophy and achievement hunters can rest assured that despite the vast amount of content, there are no missable trophies in Unicorn Overlord.
