Starship Troopers: Extermination News

[h2]Troopers![/h2]

As we approach the holiday season, the Federation and Offworld extend our warmest wishes to all troopers — our brave and dedicated troopers. Whether you’re battling the Arachnid threat on the icy tundras of Boreas, securing outposts on the harsh sands of Valaka, or enjoying some well-earned leave with your squadmates, we hope this season brings you moments of peace, joy, and plenty of bug splatter.

This past year, your efforts in defending humanity have been nothing short of extraordinary. Together, we’ve stood firm against overwhelming odds, built towering fortifications, and sent countless Arachnids back to the pits from which they crawled. The Federation salutes you for your service and sacrifice.

To give our Research and Development crew a chance to recharge their batteries (and polish their Morita rifles), Offworld will be closed for the holiday from December 23rd, 2024 to January 5th, 2024. Support services will be limited during this time, but rest assured, we’re already preparing new operations, updates, and challenges for the year ahead.

[h3]Double XP Weekend and Winter Sale[/h3]

In the meantime, keep your squads tight, your aim steady, and your resolve stronger than ever. The bugs don’t rest, and neither should our vigilance. To assist in your journey with the Federation we will be enabling DOUBLE XP from December 20th, 2024, 10 AM PT (GMT-7) til December 23rd, 2024, 10 AM PT (GMT-7).

Additionally, if you know of any wanting to earn their citizenship let them know they can gear up for the long winter offensive by bringing them to enlist in the war against the bugs! During the Steam Winter Sale, Starship Troopers: Extermination will be available at a massive 60% OFF. The sale runs from December 19th at 10 AM PT (GMT-7) to January 2nd at 10 AM PT (GMT-7). Don’t miss your chance to serve the Federation!


Thank you all for being part of this incredible journey with us—we’ll see you back in action in 2025 as we continue to fight against the bug menace!

Update 1.1.2a will be available for troopers to download now! This PC-only patch is a collection of performance optimization improvements and bug fixes. This will not impact console players, so cross-play functionality should work as intended.

Due to some changes on the backend, this update will reset all settings to default for PC players. Please note any graphics, audio, or accessibility settings you may have set, as they will need to be re-applied once the game has been updated.
