Artifact is set to release its first major update on Thursday, bringing with it a considerable amount of improvements. The first is chat, the second card emotes, and the third a color-blind mode. That's not all however, with many surprises held back by Valve. Here's the Tweets below, with confirmation also provided that there'll be another update next week, and a further after the Christmas break. 

Another feature this week: color blind accessibility options. We've added optional suit icons to all colored cards. We've also added a color blind saturation setting to help make green and red easier to distinguish. This impacts cards, the HUD, and the deck builder. pic.twitter.com/EvlNbZF3pk

Update coming this week. One feature is chat. Possess your cards and make them speak, send custom messages, or invite your opponent to a traditional Steam Chat. Make your heroes say voice lines. One click opt-in to custom messages from non-friends. One click blocking. pic.twitter.com/1eWeHWxsOK
