Patch Notes for Save the World v23.40 - Collection Book Updated, Wargames Week 4 & 5 and more

The v23.40 update in Save the World brings the fourth and fifth weeks of Wargames! We’ve also updated the Collection Book to make it a bit easier to acquire Heroes and weapons.

Wargames Week 4: Hexed

Week 4 of Wargames begins Thursday, February 16, 2023. In this edition of Wargames, Commanders have been hit with a vicious curse that drains their Health. Cure this curse or prepare for the worst!

Wargames Week 5: Invasion

Wargames’ Week 5 begins Thursday, February 23, 2023. This is not a drill — Week 5 is an alien attack! UFOs will be unleashing laser blasts onto your base, so watch out.

Collection Book Updates

The following changes have been made to the Collection Book:

  • All Llama cardpack items other than Mythic Heroes can now be acquired with Flux. (Mythic Heroes from Event Llamas still require a Hero Voucher)
  • Items available in the Shop for Gold can be researched for Vouchers if they’re only available at Legendary/Mythic rarities, and with Flux otherwise.
  • Items acquired from Quests can be researched for Vouchers if they’re only available at Legendary/Mythic rarities, and with Flux otherwise.
  • Founder/Starter Pack items, Birthday Heroes, and Mythic Weapons should be the only items unavailable for research/recruitment.

Sources descriptions for each item have also been updated to fix organisation and naming.
