Eclesiar comes to Steam on 1 October — earn Playtime Gems

Eclesiar is scheduled to launch on Steam on 1 October 2026. To celebrate, we’re introducing Playtime Gems, a special event that rewards players using the Steam desktop client.

Play on Steam, collect bound gems

From 1 to 15 October, each full hour of eligible Eclesiar playtime recorded by Steam earns 1 bound gem. You can claim up to 5 bound gems per day, with a maximum of 60 rewarded hours across the event — 60 bound gems in total.

Open the Playtime Gems event in the Steam client to check your progress and claim your rewards. Steam’s playtime count may take a few minutes to update. This promotion is Steam only; time played in a browser or on mobile does not count.

Add Eclesiar to your Steam wishlist and join us on launch day!

An upcoming limit for the public API

We’re also preparing a change for developers using our documented public API. Requests authenticated with public API keys will be limited to 50,000 per account, per server day. All keys belonging to the same account share that allowance. Once it is reached, further public API key requests will return HTTP 429 until the next server day. Regular gameplay requests made through your account session are unaffected.

We’ve seen some integrations repeatedly fetch data as though the API were their own database. Please cache responses, save the data your project needs in your own database, and refresh it at sensible intervals. That helps keep the API responsive for everyone building with Eclesiar data.

This limit is upcoming. We’re sharing it now so developers have time to adjust. See you on Steam on 1 October!
