We're happy to announce that the 1.1 update is here, and a new race is being added to Arcana! Alongisde with that, three new planets are added as well as new encounters to explore and find!


New Race, Gilten
Residing in sky-bound arks, the Gilten are descendants of holy dragons who worship the divine Light of the Aeon. Possessing affinities harnessed from the Light, the Gilten are naturally resilient against basic elements, but weak from physical strikes.

The Gilten's artifact collection branch, Aurea, has supplied Gilten spacefarers with an unique ship. However, you'll only gain access to Aurea's more advanced furniture in the next update.



New Planet, Amorous
The Amorous is a lush planet bathed in eternal sunset, rich in gems and other luxury resources. Many nobles have settled here for the planet's beautiful rivers and skies.

Notable Enemies

• Mudmidge, a mud-slime that lurks in the Amorous outskirts.
  
• Paintlin, a goblin that has taken a liking to freeform painting.

New Planet, Ruinous
Infected by the influence of the Ruin, the Ruinous is now engulfed with air of blight and catastrophe. The entire planet's surface has been encased in shadows, leaving the skies in eternal darkness. Troops of the Horizon have set up camps here to conduct research on the ancient powers.
