Sovereign Tower Patch Notes 1.0.10
Victoria and Yorhav story fixes from the August 20 Steam build
Patch 1.0.10 arrives on August 20, 2026 as the latest numbered Steam build for Sovereign Tower, closing two lingering Act 3 narrative bugs that persisted through Patch 1.0.9. Wild Wits and Curve Games published the notes for app 4113940, targeting Victoria’s self-ambush and Yorhav’s assassination — the last two story blockers flagged in Known Issues.

Why 1.0.10 matters
Patch 1.0.9 repaired Victoria trial responses, Rufus loops, Alwena assignment, and the skippable antagonist confrontation — but Yorhav assassination issues remained under testing. Community reports after August 13 confirmed Victoria could still ambush herself under specific conditions, and Yorhav’s death scene could fail to trigger correctly. 1.0.10 targets exactly those two remaining story blockers.
The game remains solo-only on Steam for Windows, Linux, and SteamOS, with Steam Deck Verified status unchanged. No new chapter, map, multiplayer mode, or price change ships with this build. The introductory discount period ended on August 20, so check the current Steam store price if you have not purchased yet.
Bug fixes
Victoria self-ambush
Under certain save states, Victoria could ambush herself — a narrative paradox where the character triggered her own confrontation event. The fix prevents this self-referential trigger so Victoria’s ambush sequence plays correctly with the intended antagonist. If you were mid-branch when you updated, reload from a recent autosave and re-enter the scene.
Yorhav assassination death
Yorhav would not die correctly during his assassination sequence. This bug persisted through 1.0.9 where official notes listed it as “under testing.” Version 1.0.10 resolves the issue so the assassination outcome fires as designed. Players stuck on the Yohav and Enberg branch can now complete the storyline — see Yohav and Enberg for routing notes. If you had already moved past the assassination on an older save, you may not notice the fix unless you rewind via the Demon or start a New Game Plus run.
What to re-verify on your save
| Area | Action after updating |
|---|---|
| Victoria ambush | Reload autosave before the ambush trigger |
| Yorhav assassination | Re-enter the assassination sequence |
| Act 3 endings | Confirm both story gates unlock correctly |
