Patch 1.1 is now Live!
Hey Hellsweepers!
We have some good news for everyone: Hellsweeper VR’s first big update has arrived. This patch includes the much-anticipated adjustments to XP balancing, including a fix for a bug that caused reduced XP gains in co-op mode. Additionally, there's bHaptics support for PCVR, improved co-op fixes, and overall difficulty balancing.
We’ve also added some more accessibility options and added in some QoL adjustments - the beetle will hang back a bit more now!
We’re excited for you to experience these changes and would greatly appreciate your feedback as we continue to improve Hellsweeper VR. If you have any questions about the update, do let us know in the comments below or join our Discord!
