{{ii}} Spiral Knights includes an outdated 32-bit Java version. Installing 64-bit Java manually is necessary.

Essential improvements

Replace Java version

Spiral Knights includes an outdated 32-bit Java version. Installing 64-bit Java manually is necessary.
Spiral Knights benefits from using the latest version of Java. Using 64-bit Java on 64-bit operating systems is strongly recommended.[1]

Notes

  1. File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/99900/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (99900) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
