Monster Slayers - Small Update (v1.5.3)
Monster Slayers Patch Notes — December 6, 2025
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
Hello Monster Slayers!
Thanks so much for the warm reception to the return of Monster Slayers. I have uploaded a small update (v1.5.3) that fixes several issues (some long-standing):
LEVEL SAVE SYSTEM: Previously, there was a serious bug that can happen due to how the level is saved between plays. If you exit an encounter, the level save sequence is triggered before you resolve it, so it was possible to get stuck with no way forward, or end up with 3 companions. I have fixed the level save logic to perform as expected now.
FULLSCREEN TOGGLE CRASH: I have added additional checks for texture surfaces when toggling between fullscreen and windowed mode, so it should happen smoothly now without crashing.
CARDS REBALANCE: Many of the older cards gained additional AP costs when they were upgraded (which makes it a worse card in some cases), but I have rebalanced it so that they retain the original AP cost. Accordingly, the sources of AP gains have been scaled back slightly to compensate. The standard "Improvise" card has also been rebalanced to no longer have a card draw option, but instead gain a strengthened Block/Attack value. Barbarian cards were pretty bad in general, and their costs have been dialed back to make them competitive again.
DRAGON UPGRADES: The Dragon upgrades (+10 HP & extra Armor) were not functioning properly, and this has been fixed.
Do let me know in the comments or technical issues thread if you come across anything else that needs fixing! Wishing all of you a very happy Monster Slaying ahead.
