We are proud to announce that Spiral Knights is now available as one of the first ever free to play games on Steam! At this time we would like to extend a great big welcome to all the new Knights that we are sure to see from this partnership. Welcome to the Clockworks!

Steam users who play Spiral Knights will find their Steam friends already added to their friends list in game as well as other special offers exclusive to Steam players.

The Clockworks have just revealed a new, perilous boss stratum for Tier 1 Knights to challenge, The Gloaming Wildwoods. However, new recruits should take heed - this dense forest is home to a fearsome creature known as the Snarbolax.

Said to be a massive beast draped in living shadows, this dark predator enjoys toying with its prey before delivering the final blow. It is advised that only Knights who have mastered Tier 1 take on this formidable beast as those who have entered unprepared have never returned!

Got a new sword that you want to level up fast? Looking for a little boost? The Heat Amplifier is now available from the Upgrade Merchant, which grants users an additional 20% heat collected in the Clockworks for 48 hours!

Maximize your adventure by purchasing a Heat Amplifier today!

The Strangers have been hard at work making Haven a more welcoming place for the recent influx of knights, and so several new amenities are now available in the Town Square: an Auction House, and an Advanced Training Hall!

The Auction House is a new and efficient way for knights to buy and sell materials, recipes and other items, while the Advanced Training Hall can be used to brush up on important adventuring skills, or to test out new weapons. Go take a look at them in the Haven Town Square today!

The response to the Rose Regalia Energy Bonus has been fantastic so far, and so we've decided to extend it for one more weekend! Until Monday, May 9th at 3 PM PDT, purchase at least $9.95 worth of Crystal Energy and receive a free piece of the Rose Regalia costume set. There are three chapeaus and three tabards in all, so this is your last chance to collect all six!

Thank you to everyone who's participated in the Bonus so far. Have a great weekend in the Clockworks!
