Dysterra Full Release – Play for Free!

Thank you for your patience.
Dysterra has finally completed its long period of refinement and is now transitioning to its official release.
Here are the key changes of the full release of Dysterra.

Update schedule
  • Europe: Apr 17th, 2025, 2:00 AM to 7:00 AM (CET)
  • America: Apr 16th, 2025, 5:00 PM to 10:00 PM (PST)

Dysterra Goes Free-to-Play!

Dysterra is going free-to-play very soon! We understand that you may have many questions about this change, so we’d like to take this opportunity to explain the details.
With the transition to free-to-play, we are also introducing the Founder’s Pack DLC.
All players who have previously purchased Dysterra will receive this DLC for free.
The Founder’s Pack DLC includes the following benefits:
  • 3,000TP for Terra Shop (only for new purchaser)
  • Access to official servers
  • Ability to claim daily/weekly rewards
  • Listed on the global rankings
  • Content unlocks in specific areas of single-player mode

Players who are using the free version will need to purchase the Founder’s Pack DLC to access these features.

If you're new to the game, we recommend getting familiar with the mechanics through single-player mode or custom servers. Once you're ready to earn TP (Terrasite Points), you can join the official servers.
Existing players can either play on custom servers to enjoy the game with free players or join the official servers to compete and earn TP.
We deeply appreciate those who supported Dysterra early on by purchasing and playing the game.🚀

Time-Limited Skins Introduced

All currently available skins, as well as future skins, will now be time-limited.
However, any skins you have already purchased will remain permanent and will not be affected by this change.
To celebrate the official launch, we are introducing the "Orbis Container - Skull Silver Skins"! 🎉


Ranking System Change
PvP and PvE rankings will now be separated.
Weekly rewards will also be divided into two categories, ensuring that players can compete more fairly based on their preferred playstyle.
All previous rankings before this update will be reset.

Environmental Changes
Longer Nights 🌙
The nights on Ararat Island will now last longer.

Rain Returns
After a long dry spell, rain will finally make a comeback.

More Dynamic Temperature Changes 🌡️
Each region’s temperature will now fluctuate more noticeably depending on the time of day.
  • At night, it will get colder.
  • Rain will make temperatures drop even further.
  • In open areas like the Gamma Zone, where there are no trees to block sunlight, daytime will feel hotter.
Survival Adjustments
Players can counter harsh weather conditions by equipping armor, using pills, or injections.

Armor’s environmental resistance has been significantly increased, making it a more effective way to withstand extreme temperatures.

Weapon & Armor Changes

The crafting bench has always been a reliable companion, producing equipment with consistent performance. However, this will now change.
From now on, weapons, melee weapons, and armor crafted at the bench will have varying stats each time they are made.
  • Weapon Grades Introduced
    Survivors can check a weapon's performance based on its grade.
  • Weapon Stat Changes in the Journal
    You can track how weapons evolve by checking your Journal.

Additionally, the durability enhancement system has been revamped to strengthen overall stats, not just durability.
  • Higher-Grade Gear = Better Enhancements
    Strengthening high-quality equipment will provide greater stat boosts compared to upgrading
    standard gear. So, if possible, focus on enhancing higher-grade equipment for the best results!
    🔧💥


Gun Recoil Adjustments

Assault rifles and submachine guns have been the dominant weapon choices in the game. To encourage more diverse weapon usage, we have completely redesigned gun recoil mechanics.
  • Sniper rifles & designated marksman rifles (DMRs)📈
    Significantly reduced recoil, making them easier to handle and more viable in combat.
  • Submachine guns (SMGs)📉
    Increased recoil, making it harder to hit distant targets.

These changes aim to create a more balanced and varied gunplay experience! 🎯

New Lighting Feature Added

With longer and darker nights, we’ve added a new Searchlight to help players illuminate their surroundings more effectively.
  • You can manually aim the light where you want it to shine.
  • By holding the interaction key, you can adjust the direction of the beam, allowing for near full-range coverage in any direction.

Perfect for base defense, night raids, or simply lighting up the dark wilderness! 💡🌌


Terrafire Cycle Adjustments

With the enhancement of weapons and armor, the Terrafire cycle will now be extended.
  • PvE Server Changes 🌍
    Initial Duration: 4 months (120 days)
    Minimum Duration: 3 months (90 days)
    Maximum Duration: 6 months (180 days)
  • PvP Servers 🔥
    No changes – the existing cycle will remain the same.

Patch Notes: v0.6.28

As the weather warms up, we hope you have a pleasant spring ahead.

Some of you may have noticed strange behavior from monsters, including bears, in recent times. Thanks to the relentless efforts of Orbis scientists, the cause has finally been identified. The Orbis Security Bureau has deployed a bio-form vaccine across Ararat Island while simultaneously upgrading the software of robotic units. As a result, the unusual anomalies you’ve encountered have been significantly improved.

We’ll have more exciting news about Dysterra to share with you soon.
If you have ideas to improve the game or have discovered any bugs, please report them on our Discord server!
