Patch Notes 0.13.22 (Stable Merge)

Overview

LeiYun Games published two announcements on July 21, 2026 for build 0.13.22: a test-branch hotfix for secret realm portal chaos, followed by a full stable EA branch push thanking test players and merging accumulated test content from 0.13.20 and 0.13.21 into the default public build.

This is the first major test-to-stable merge since the Steam beta channel opened. Stable players who never opted into betas now receive prior test fixes — including Nascent Soul softlock patches, secret realm freeze recovery, and Bamboo Wind Tomb corrections — without switching branches. After this push, test development continues ahead of stable on the beta channel.

Test Branch Fix (Same Day)

The morning update targeted one critical regression before the stable merge:

• Secret realm portal chaos FIXED: Leaving a secret realm could trigger random teleportation across the world map — portal exit logic restored to intended destination

Stable EA Push — Developer Message

LeiYun thanked test-branch participants and pushed the consolidated build to all stable EA players. Key message: community validation on test accelerated fixes that would otherwise remain beta-only. Always back up saves before updating: Save & Cloud Backup Guide.
