White peak storm winds
Environmental wind storms are now in the White Peak arena that increase in frequency and for longer toward the end of a match. The red flags indicate incoming winds and their direction, shelter zones behind the pillars are safe zones.
New weapons!
Falchion! Battle Axe! Kanabo! Cleaver! Hatchet!
Keyboard / Mouse
Keyboard and mouse input is now fully supported. You no longer need a gamepad to play Swordy! A keyboard/mouse player can of course join in with other gamepad players too.
Steam Controller
Full native Steam Controller support has been added for Valve Steam Controllers along with Xbox gamepad and PS4 gamepad as Steam Controllers (option within Steam Big Picture Mode).
The Steam Controller, Gamepads and Keyboard/mouse all seamlessly work together, both for multiplayer but also if your gamepad dies (for example) you can instantly pick things up on a different device.
Menu and UI update
The System Menu has been restructured a bit to better split options and settings as they have grown since release. All text in the game is now rendered sharper. UI input prompts and hints dynamically change based on what devices are connected.

- Aim - mouse movement.
- Move - WASD.
- Left action - left click.
- Right action - right click.
- Pickup/drop - Q and E.
- Force pickup (for dual wielding) - CTRL.
- Dash - shift.
