One of the significant improvements is the introduction of a new graphics engine based on Vulkan. This engine will provide enhanced atmospheric elements like moving clouds, jiggling tree leaves, and water waves, along with dynamic weather effects such as rain and snow1.
The game also brings an innovative change in character and item creation through procedural models. Every character in the world, including players, NPCs, and pets, as well as in-game items like weapons and armor, will be uniquely generated by an algorithm, adding a new dimension of originality to the game.
Additionally, the GUI is set for a revamp, and the developer plans to reintroduce elements like experience, leveling, and skill trees to this version.

cuwo is an open server implementation for Cube World, written in Python and C++. For years, it was only possible to host PvP servers. But since few days, "matpow2" has finally found the solution, and now it is possible to host stable PvE servers.

- Cross-platform support (Linux, Windows, Mac OS X, FreeBSD, what have you)
- NPCs and mobs, just as in the regular server
- File/console logging
- MOTD message

- IRC bot
- PvP script
- DDoS prevention
- Lower CPU requirements than normal server
- Optimizations in C++
- ... and much more!

- Improves global security of the server list
- No more problem to use our embedded content on external websites that use also HTTPS

]]>Two days ago, Wollay uploaded a new Cube World song on his Soundcloud account. As he didn't posted anything about the game since June 2014, everyone started to get excited.
Yesterday, a complete guide to install and run Cube World on Linux was also posted on Reddit : https://www.reddit.com/r/CubeWorld/comments/3nmwgv/how_to_installrun_cube_world_on_linux/
Finally, few hours ago, Wollay uploaded another Cube World song on Soundcloud.

But we invite you to read the nice article about Cube World from Kotaku that might give you still some hope : http://kotaku.com/despite-23-months-without-updates-cube-world-devs-say-1717034639]]>
Two websites, not related, have published a very close release date for Cube World.
The first website, Gamezilla.pl, show a release date for the second trimester 2015 for Cube World as you can see on the screenshot below :
The second website, gamepressure.com, show a release date for July 2015 (two years after the last update) for Cube World :
Should we believe this? The problem is that Wollay did not post a single tweet about Cube World since June 2014.
But the good news is that the wait to be fixed about this will not be long. Cross your finger!!

Still tweaking the quest system. It'll be less MMO-style and more focused on exploration and finding cool locations. pic.twitter.com/2RLaE8fQ66

Last information about the quest system
- Removing markers from the map, so players need to find the way themselves. But there will be signs.
- Quest items will be put in a special inventory bag which is shared between players in multiplayer mode.
- If you find an enemy with a '!', attack him and you'll get the quest! No need to find a quest giver first.
- There won't be quest givers. The quests are just there and you need to discover them. However NPCs will give hints.

I'm currently reworking some aspects of Cube World to improve the game experience. I'm planning to include them in the next update, but I still need some time to test them. Here is an overview:
- Maximum power is now scaled to 20 (from 100). Effectively, your strength won't be affected, just the numbers are scaled and items are available for a wider level range.
- Each land now has a power level which determines the average power of creatures and dungeons. That way, players can choose difficulty by themselves.
- The size of lands has been decreased. The average size is now 20x20 tiles (was 64x64). This enables players to explore new lands more quickly and also results in closer cities.
- Naming and coloring of creatures and dungeons is now analog to items: For example, a blue "Undead +18" means that he has power level 18 and is likely to drop +18 items of blue quality. In contrast to before, players can now precisely see the power of creatures.
- Dungeon missions aren't generated daily anymore and aren't adapted to the player level. Instead, players can see on the map if a dungeon has been cleared or not (indicated by a skull icon). A dungeon is cleared by defeating the boss and will remain empty for a couple of days.
- I'm working on underworld caverns: The idea is to have a network of caverns below the overworld with secret entrances at the surface. The underworld will be inhabited by various monsters of varying power and will add another exploration factor to the game. Currently I'm experimenting with nice-looking entrances (it's tricky to get them right).
Besides that I'm working on a better forum/comments solution, but currently the next update has priority.
