Effective June 12, 2015, Spiral Knights will no longer accept payments through UltimatePay. The vendor is discontinuing this platform for online payments. If you have credits or a balance on your UltimatePay payment methods, please be sure to use them before June 12. We will not be able to process any UltimatePay payments after that date.

We know that many of you rely on UltimatePay to make purchases in our game. The team is working to implement a new payment method which will offer similar payment options. We will let you know when this new option is ready to use.

Today's patch features the release of more Rank Missions! This patch includes five new Rank 10-2 missions that unravel some long standing mysteries while weaving new tales and adventures. These missions must be played in order.

Rank 10-2

After strange interference is detected deep within Firestorm Citadel, the Vanguards embark on a series of missions that will have them returning to old stomping grounds and beyond. Reunite with old friends and foes alike and discover a new charge for the future of the Spiral Order.

Hello knights,

Right now if you are seeing a "session expired" message when trying to get back into the game, you will need to wait 10 minutes for attempting to log back in. If you try to log back in before that time, it will reset the timer and you'll have to wait again. Bogus, dude!

You will get this message if you force-quit the game, so make sure to log out properly!

The devs are looking into it. Thanks for your patience while this gets sorted out.
