The latest Fiesta patch is now live! It introduces a multitude of exciting new guild features, including guild storage, a guild ranking system, and the much-anticipated guild academy!

Players can now share their in-game currency and valuable items with other guildmates using a new guild storage feature, making transferring items between characters and friends even easier.

The guild academy has also opened its doors, giving new players an easy and exciting way to get involved in the Fiesta community. Every guild now has its very own guild academy, and players below level 40 can join up and start earning points for their guildmates simply by leveling up. Every Thursday each guild’s point total will be tallied, and the top seven guilds will receive a powerful buff for the entirety of the next week!

All the guild academy members’ hard work won’t go unrewarded - academy members earn items and in-game currency from guild storage every time they level up, and after graduating from the guild academy at level 40, their names will be forever recorded in the guild’s hall of fame!

The guild academy master at the head of each academy also receives cool new abilities, including the option to warp to any other academy member’s location and a distinctive visual aura.

Whether you’re a brand new Fiesta player looking to join a guild and get more involved in the Fiesta community or a seasoned veteran ready to boost your guild to the next level, the latest Fiesta patch offers something for you.

October 16th is National Boss Day - the best holiday of the year! To celebrate, Outspark is offering gamers a chance to show their bosses just how much they care. Players around the world are invited to come together in the free-to-play MMORPGs Fiesta and Secret of the Solstice and celebrate the one universal constant: Love for our bosses!

National Boss Day comes but once a year, and Outspark has gone all-out to allow the lowly workers of the world the opportunity to finally reward their boss’ hard work and dedication with much-deserved greeting cards, gifts, and magic fireballs to the head.

Log into Fiesta and Secret of the Solstice today and join in the National Boss Day festivities by repaying the bosses for all their help in the last year. The Outspark Game Masters will be spawning progressively more difficult bosses - and handing out progressively better rewards as players slay their way up the corporate ladder.

The celebration continues through the weekend, so there’s still plenty of time to express your love for your boss!

Beginning this Friday, October 17th, suit up and join your fellow mercenaries in the second Blackshot Closed Beta Test! You experienced the heat of battle in the first Closed Beta - but there’s more where that came from!
