Console is coming soon, it was scheduled for a week or two after the patch went live. We’ll let you know when we have a more fixed date. ---

I finished quests and opened gold chests, got new troops but they are not showing under troops. ---

They are working on the fix for that right now. ---

I can’t even see the new kingdom on the map. Curious how some people have managed to make it to the last challenge when I can’t unlock the kingdom. ---

Have you restarted since the day switched over? Also do you have Blackhawk unlocked? ---

Were you on before the reset? I know that I always need to close the game and restart after the reset to get the new troops to show up. I had to do the same thing for the new Kingdom. ---

I have restarted multiple times. Blackhawk is unlocked and at five stars. I am still running 3.1.5, since I am **not** going to deal with the new chest opening process for 27,000 chests! Edit: screenshot showing Merlantis announcement and no Merlantis above Blackhawk. ![IMG_1146](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/a/d/adccac3a52dfc044e25dea6f68440a5563e2ed83.PNG) ---

Then there is your problem, you didn’t update the game ---

I actually find the new chest opening to be quicker anyway. I barely have to move the mouse. ---

I spent over 5000 gold keys before I realized I can’t see how many troops I have. Also just noting that the “new” troop layout when opening chests is difficult to see, it’s just a small red banner on the card itself. ---

Just went out now. People will need to restart the game to get the changes though. ---

> [@Nephilim](#): > > Can you update and post side by side screen grabs please? Not a chance. At the very least, not before the hotfix goes out and improves readability. Edit: or the devs make 3.2 mandatory. If they do this prior to making it so that playing the game will not cause me pain, I will have some very harsh words indeed regarding their priorities. ---
