Necesse News

Hey everyone!

Necesse Version 0.32: The Forgotten Depths update is now live!

Along with the update, Necesse is also on a 35% discount here on Steam. So make sure to pick it up if you have been waiting :D

We hope you all enjoyed the teaser trailer showed during the Triple-i showcase. If you didn't catch it, you can check it out here:

Now let's take a look at the update!
This update completes the Plains biome with a new deep cave. If you're playing on an old world, make sure you go to a deep cave you haven't been to before to get the new generation.
In the cave you can find new enemies, new loot and gear, and a new boss for you to defeat :)



The economy and how you make big money in Necesse have been reworked. All settler shops now have stock and a limited amount of coins that regenerate. So to make a lot of money, you now have to hire the new Trader settler that's been introduced. They can sell items for you, that you place in the new Shipping Chest.
The Pawnbroker is no longer recruitable, so consider yourself lucky if you have one already :D
And then a bunch of other changes you can check out below!



It's now possible to automate your settler expeditions like explorer expeditions, mining trips and fishing trips. This is done through a mission board that you get from a new journal challenge reward.



The void dungeon is now more dangerous with the introduction of some unique traps. Some of them are pretty funny, so I don't want you to get spoiled and not discover them for yourselves. Here is a small teaser though:



Some of the other features in this update include:

• NPC village settlers will now get angry if you destroy their village.
  
• NPC villages will now respawn their settlers after a while if they were killed or recruited.
  
• Deep snow caves now spawn with icicles that can fall from the ceiling.
  
• Mage enchants costs are now further reduced by their happiness.
  
• Pawnbrokers now spawn in NPC villages and can no longer be recruited.
  
• Buffed Carapace Dagger slightly again.
  
• A ton of fixes to issues reported by you!
  

You can read the full changelog below.

As always, we will keep a close eye on issues and balancing and push out updates as needed :)

Enjoy the update everyone!

It’s going to be a big day for Necesse, make sure you don’t miss it 😉

Hey everyone!

We hope you’ve all had some time to enjoy the new plains caves and maybe fend off a couple of the new settlement raids.

Alongside the update, we’d also like to share an updated version of our 2025 Roadmap.



As you can see on the Roadmap below, we’ve pushed Environmental Hazards to content update 0.32 and decided to add Creative Mode in its own update, later this summer. Other than that, the timeline is pretty much the same as the old Roadmap.

As always, thank you so much for your ongoing support.

Small hotfix for a bunch of issues reported and translation updates as well :)
Thank you for all the feedback!

Changes:
- Settlers guarding a position will now no longer change after having attacked a target.
- Fixed Ruby Shields getting destroyed by owner if not part of a team.
- Fixed trapped settlers not being able to be recruited without cost.
- Fixed settlers trying to equip and use summons they don't have enough slots for.
- Fixed raid music stopping before the raid is over.
- Fixed settler Void Staff aiming.
- Updated community translations (thank you translators!)

Servers need to get updated as well to fix most of these issues.

Until next time!

Hey everyone!
Thank you for all the feedback and bug reports since the update yesterday. I've been pushing out smaller hotfixes for some of the critical issues, but some changes require a new version not to have desync in multiplayer, etc. This is that :)

Changes so far:
Settlers will now talk to you if they're angry at someone else.
The Stylist will now also sell the Elder cosmetic set.
Fixed possible crash when another player was using the new boots on another level.
Fixed being able to cancel netted buff.
Fixed crash when attacking other players with beam weapons.
Fixed possible freeze when a lot of settlers are harvesting/chopping at the same time.
Fixed possible crash when reading Brutes Battleaxe tooltip in item icons.
Fixed melee damage modifier being too high on Runic Helmet.
Fixed Ruby Dragon summons hitting neutral and other mobs when they shouldn't.
Fixed settlers getting knocked down while on a mission making them stuck in that mission.
Fixed rare crash when spawning a raid at very specific settlement loadouts.
Fixed crash when loading an old save with an active raid.
Fixed Runic Boulder and a few other multi tiles place preview.
Fixed the game not launching properly on MacOS.
Fixed Chieftains arena sometimes spawning with missing walls when close to water.
Updated community translations (thank you for helping out!).

You can of course always choose an older version by right clicking Necesse in Steam -> Properties -> Betas.

Until next time!
