Gloria Victis Weekly Update | State of War Returns August 19, Latest Changelog

Warriors!

The banners are rising once again.

We're excited to announce that State of War will officially return to Gloria Victis on August 19, 2026!

For veterans, this marks the return of one of the most requested features in Gloria Victis. For newer players, this will be your first opportunity to put your guild to the ultimate test.

Guilds will challenge their rivals, attack enemy Guild Islands, defend their own strongholds, earn Technology Points, and prove their strength through preparation, tactics, and teamwork.

But August 19 is only the beginning.

State of War Will Continue to Evolve

The version of State of War we're introducing will serve as the foundation for the feature moving forward.

Once real battles begin, we'll closely monitor how the system performs and listen to feedback from participating guilds.

Balance, mechanics, rewards, and other elements may be adjusted based on what we learn from the community and live battles.

Battle Sizes

The initial battle sizes should also be considered a starting point.

We'll be monitoring server performance, battle flow, balance, and the overall experience. Based on what we learn, battle sizes may be increased or adjusted in future updates.

We want State of War to evolve alongside the community.

State of War begins August 19.

**Prepare **your guild. **Fortify **your castle. **Study **your enemies.

How We're Building Gloria Victis

Our focus for Gloria Victis is on developing the game steadily and sustainably, prioritizing updates that meaningfully improve the experience rather than rushing features simply to fill a schedule.

Some updates will take time.

Our development efforts remain focused on stability, important fixes, quality-of-life improvements, and meaningful additions to the game.

State of War represents this approach. Rather than considering the feature finished the moment it releases, we'll learn from real battles and continue improving it based on player experiences and feedback.

We may not always have something massive to announce every week, but development continues behind the scenes.

When we introduce new content and systems, we want them to have a meaningful place in Gloria Victis and continue improving alongside the community.

Latest Changelog

Alongside State of War development, we've implemented several fixes and Guild Island improvements.

Fixes

Fixed an edge-case issue involving Guild Island Bastions that could cause them to instantly consume all available resources.
Fixed an issue causing Furnaces to disappear from Guild Islands. Missing Furnaces have also been restored.
Fixed the /home command so that using it will no longer display the command in chat.

Guild Island Updates

Level 5 and 6 Fortifications are now unlocked!

Guilds can now upgrade the following structures up to Level 6:

Walls
Towers
Gatehouses
Bastions

New Battle Sizes

Three additional battle sizes are also being introduced, each with its own available fortification and economy points:

15 Defenders vs. 18 Attackers
25 Defenders vs. 30 Attackers
35 Defenders vs. 42 Attackers

No changes have been made to existing battle sizes or their current fortification and economy point values.

We'll continue monitoring battle flow, balance, server performance, and community feedback when State of War goes live.
