And all that is obviously not all – there will be some new updates for both DDS1 and DDS2 – but we don’t want to spoil too much. Keep your eyes peeled and ears open *wink wink*

Hello Dealers!

As promised, we’re coming to you today with new crashfixes and a batch of additional changes! The main course is the travel crash fix, which you helped us identify and confirm the solution.

From the data you sent we know that this problem was responsible for as much as 79% of crashes. Fixing it should make a BIG difference for stability overall. (Other crash reasons will be dealt with too in future updates.)

Let’s dive straight into Update Notes:

Fixed crash related to NPCs navigation, most frequently observed when travelling, especially via vehicles;
Fixed an issue where the player could be bitten by a snake while quick-travelling;
Fixed an issue that could cause the game to save automatically during quick travel;
Fixed an issue where the player could not move after quick travel;
Added new VO for thugs, policemen and militia;
Added VO for bodyguards;
The trade dialogue option is now the first choice with shopkeepers.

Thank you all for reporting your crashes and testing out the solutions. Your help was invaluable!

Stay tuned, more updates are coming soon!

Heyo Dealers!

First of all, thanks to all our community testers who helped us test the upcoming crash fix. It’s right around the corner, and it should deal with the majority of crashes, making a big difference overall. It’ll come this week, and if everything goes smoothly - maybe even tomorrow! Stay tuned.

We also updated our roadmap that you can see on the game’s store page. Here’s what the team at Byterunners is working on, or has queued up for the next updates.

Hey all!

This is Pawel from True Games Syndicate, the team behind Casino DLC. I thought it’d be nice to show you around our fine establishment near the coast of Isla Sombra. In a series of devlogs like this one, I’ll tell you exactly what Casino DLC is, and how we aimed to make it complementary to the DDS2 experience.

Let’s start with: what happens when you first launch it?

When you install Casino DLC, you’ll see that a new location appeared on the map: the Big Win Oil Rig, which is the host to the Wallet Drainer Casino. It’s a place where not everyone can simply come.


DDS2: Casino DLC comes with a questline that starts with you gaining entry to the casino and ends with you taking over the business, which becomes your cash cow. But before you get there, you’ll have a couple of hours of gameplay before you - not to mention the main attraction, which is chilling out with friends while playing poker.

ONLY THE HOST NEEDS TO HAVE THE DLC INSTALLED to enjoy it with friends. The other two players can just join without buying the DLC.


We designed the Casino primarily as a place to hang out in for DDS2 crews. Now if you just want to spend fun time with your friends, you don’t have to continue doing the usual drug dealing business. You can come to the casino together, take a seat at a table and try to take them to the cleaners.

Our main attraction is a variety of single player / co-op casino games: Texas Hold’em, All-in Poker, Blackjack and Roulette. There are also slot machines if the only competitor you need is Lady Luck. To play, you need to exchange cash for chips, and when you win, you can either cash them, or - if you got Golden Chips - use them to buy exclusive stuff such as decorations for your hideouts.


There are areas that are available from the start, but also a VIP lounge where you need to earn admittance. But, I think this is long enough for the first preview devlog. Stay with us, join the DDS2 Discord (now with its very own Casino corner), and wishlist the DLC so you don’t miss the release.

See ya, dealers!
