:crate:August Crates Have Arrived!:crate:

Wow, it seems like summer just started, unfortunately it's already August!?
No worries because my siblings have stocked some sizzling new crate sets, adding some more heat to our summer fun!

In all my millennia, I've never seen evil look so good! Look deviously delicious with Zaz La or schemingly handsome with Xogud Split. If you're feeling a bit sweeter, you can always go for the rare set Strawberry Delight making it's second and final return in this month's crate!


Zaz La: By Nebulae
Xogud Split: By Nebulae
Strawberry Delight: By Q t e a p o n

Thank you to our Item Tech, Elithiya for uploading!

Hurry on over to OMG Imports to get yours today!

Development Updates

As always, make sure to clear your cache first if the website looks wonky or doesn't show the updates.
If that doesn't resolve the issue, please contact our devs or make a bug report.

Home Page Update:
Our home page got a small layout update with the fun, new carousel!
No, you can't ride it, but you can watch the pretty pictures go by.

This new feature will have previews and links to all the hot gossip around Voltra, after I report on them of course!
Thanks Fozzy & Vii

Forum Update:
The new guy really hit the ground running!

Sadly, we did not add a new camel emoji to our ever growing Voltra emoji collection...
but we don't have too!


So what does this mean?

Now you can do things
🅛🅘🅚🅔 🅣🅗🅘🅢
OR
𝓣𝓗𝓘𝓢, 𝓞𝓞𝓞 𝓕𝓐𝓝𝓒𝓨!

Isn't this update 🔥💯🔥!?
Thanks Hazer

Shops Update:
The minor bug that made some colors appear as doubles in shops has been fixed!
(If you notice any colors missing from shop items after this fix, please inform us here.
Thanks Hazer

No worries, it should be back shortly after we do some debugging!

Official Voltra Item Museum!



Just in case you missed my spectacular interview with Bernard, I wanted to mention our brand-spanking-new, Official Voltra Item Museum!

It is staff run and acts as a catalog for all non-common items (ie. Crates, Events, etc). So, check out all the pretty items and figure out which ones you want to quest for next. :bernard_happy:

That's a wrap! Hopefully all these fun updates hold you over for the rest of the week.
After all, it is🐪 day and that means you're already half way there - I'm sure you can make it!
