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.

[h2]Client Performance Improvements (PC Only)[/h2]

• Optimized Bug UnBurrow effects for PC.
  
• Optimized Shell casings on PC.

The Federation has issued a new directive asking all active Troopers to consider nominating Starship Troopers: Extermination for the Innovative Gameplay award in this year's Steam Awards!

Earlier this year, we unleashed the revolutionary Carnage System in Starship Troopers: Extermination. Gone are the days when Bug corpses vanished without a trace. Now, every Bug you destroy remains on the battlefield indefinitely, creating an ever-growing graveyard of your victories — and challenges.

These piled-up corpses aren’t just for show. They alter the terrain, blocking paths and creating new routes for the enemy. Bugs can now swarm areas they couldn’t reach before, even breaching your base. This is the kind of war where the environment itself is your greatest ally — or your deadliest foe.

But fear not, Troopers! These fallen Bugs are more than obstacles — they’re opportunities. Climb the carcasses to gain the high ground, establish sniper nests, and turn their defeat into your tactical advantage. When the battlefield becomes too cluttered, clear it with high-tier explosives or brute force through melee strikes. No matter the situation, you’ll have the tools to adapt and overcome.

The Carnage System ensures every engagement is intense, unpredictable, and unique every time you deploy. So, what are you waiting for? Consider nominating us for the Innovative Gameplay award in the name of Federation!


If you haven't already, you can get Starship Troopers: Extermination for 40% off from November 27th, 10 AM PT (GMT-7) to December 4th, 10 AM PT (GMT-7),
