Microsoft is unable to push some of our recent changes live until July 14th. So to maintain order, we’re keeping the existing weekly event live 2 more days - the “new” event will go live on the 14th.

The event has rolled over on the PS4 normally - this delay is only for players on XBOX. We’re very sorry for this delay.

CLARIFICATION:

Drifting Sands IS available to unlock & play, and all Drifting Sands troops are available in chests, including the event chests. It is the shop bundles which are delayed.

@exx How long ago did you attempt the Event chest for Drifting Sands troops?

Not sure if Mr Strange decided to revert the chests back to Broken Spire after making that announcement.

Is there an update to when we will see the Shop Bundles on XBOX One? There is still nothing but the normal bundles that appear every week.

No update yet. We’re as confused as anyone why it isn’t available, as we were assured it would go up on July 14.

We ARE looking into it, though, and hope to know something soon.

I find it odd how the Broken Spire weekly packs returned yesterday only to be removed again today when the new day started. Drifting Sands weekly packs still unavailable. Maybe, the Sandshark swallowed up the XB1 merchants.

@Nex Thanks for the feedback gifts in my in-game mailbox. That was very kind.

I hope Xbox Operations hasn’t thrown in the towel on you this weekend on solving the missing Shop Bundles problem!

So is XBOX going to see the Shop Bundles for Drifting Sands … or are we going to miss out on the Troop and Weapon packs for this kingdom?
