**So, due to reasons out of IP2’s control, update 9.1 has been delayed.** 🫠  
At the **earliest** it would release tomorrow, March 12th 11 AM AEDT. _Still not including Switch_

**To be clear: It may not release tomorrow, that is just the earliest we can hope for**

There is a _chance_ it may release on XBOX today, because the processing time to adjust the release schedule may not come through before it is already out.  
If it does come out on XBOX today, the Star Stone Shop offers will not be available.

It does. It explains they are available as a reward for completing Daily Plunder and a monthly Weekly goal **as well as** being available in the Specials tab of the Shop for purchase.

Its a free to play game.

Costs nothing and doesnt have adverts on consoles.

So serious question, how does it survive, without selling.

But its paying to get ahead, for yourself.

Youll never compete against the skill trees, there for attack only.

So its not getting ahead, its like you having a mini and your friend having a merc. Hes got the better car. But youll never be on the same track. You do understand that dont you.

Ok cant cap all troops at 4.

Theres actually an item in the forge, that takes 5 vault cards.

We all hate things in the game, but theres more positives than negatives.

And as for cedrics, imagine it was pre vault weekends. Yes exactly. We get free keys, if we play now. Compared to pre vault days. So il take a million negative cedricks, and the positive. Orbs, money, and everything else from free vault weekends.

This conversation should be taken into it’s own thread if it wants to continue, as it is well off topic about 9.1

I am now expecting 9.1 to release after the weekend. If we get no update on it releasing today, then we would not release on a Friday.

Everything about the Astral Spire has already been shared.

The new Library system will have one time rewards everyone will be able to collect, and Daily Plunder (dailies) will remain unchanged, and they reward XP bonuses.

Hi Jeto,  
Thank you for all the info. Serious question:  
I have a beginner’s guide which is organized by the Adventurer’s path unlock system. Game modes and features pre-ver.9 unlock at certain levels, and some require World Quest completion.  
In keeping the guide up to date with The Library, it would really help to know:

- Can players essentially unlock any feature at any hero level by completing the corresponding tutorial?
- Are world quests gone?
- If there are still level caps to features, can we get the list of what unlocks at what level?

This information would be unknown to most player mentors since we’ll be above lv 50.  
Thanks so much,  
~Goblin

It won’t be unknown for lvl 50+ players, as you will still be collecting the rewards from completing the Library and have access to view.

In the meantime The Library is mostly just a tutorial system that existing players will already be familiar with, similar to the current Adventure Path system but more directly linked to tutorials that pop up depending on your level. World Quests still exist.

At the moment, we are expecting to release on Tuesday the 17th AEDT (fingers crossed all platforms) - so you do not have long to wait before a lot of questions will quickly be answered.

Update: At this stage looking all clear for 9.1 releasing tomorrow but we have not receive the submission back from Nintendo, so at this stage 9.1 will not be releasing tomorrow on Switch.

This will not affect anything on Switch once it has released, as Legends Reborn has already been pushed back on all platforms.

### Update 9.1 is in the process of releasing to all platforms, excluding Switch.

Also, you need to complete the Luther tutorial for the Astral Spire before accessing it. Which is available via The Library

Also, dealing with these rewards showing as already collected for lvl 50+ players - when they are intended to be available

As well as the Library Pass not tripling rewards.

_Should mentioned, these were not issues in the whole beta process._

ALSO aware the update has yet to roll out to Android

Once it’s fixed, anyone who has already bought it will get sent the missing rewards.
