Last month we reported that Slay the Spire was leaving Steam Early Access this month, and now it has done just that and given us a launch trailer to celebrate the occasion as well.
What's more is we also get a blog post talking in more depth about the v1.0 release, revealing that the team are breaking from weekly updates to shift their efforts into other things like releases on different platforms, promising the game will be "available to as many people as possible!"
More content will be coming though, as PC-specific features are on their way that couldn't be fit into the launch update, with some more mysterious content that they didn't want to spoil. The team also thanks fans for their dedication over the three years the game has been in development, and share some patch notes with us all, which you can find below the launch trailer.
Have you been playing it in Early Access, or are you just jumping in for the first time now?
