Running out of weapons? Time to bring out the big guns.

The free demo is landing on October 13th, and we'd love for you to give it a try and add the game to your wishlist on Steam—it really means a lot to us![/p][p]👉 Steam Page: [/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p]During the last playtest, some of you said the weapon variety felt a little… limited. Fair point. So we went back to the workshop and re-forged the arsenal.

Check out the latest gameplay video! [/p][p][/p][p]And here's more good news: XenoHaven will also be part of Steam Next Fest this October. Download the demo, experiment with the new weapons, and let us know what kind of chaos you can create.[/p][p] [/p][p]Thanks for sticking with us—we can't wait to hear what you think![/p]

Two and a Half Years in Development – XenoHaven Has Evolved!

[p]Hello, pioneers! I'm the developer of the sandbox survival RPG XenoHaven.[/p][p]Since our first trailer in February 2023, the game has been under development for over two and a half years, and we're excited to share what's changed.[/p][p] [/p][p]🔗 XenoHaven Steam page:[/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p]🔗 Watch the video here [/p][p][/p][p]Over the past months, we've completely overhauled the art to make the world feel truly alien.

Bosses drop unique weapons, from soul-summoning staves to energy-infused swords, making progression and combat more rewarding.[/p][p] [/p][p]We've also refined economy and crafting systems, allowing you to build production lines, trade with merchants, farm food, and run restaurants to maximize resources and strategy.[/p][p] [/p][p]If you haven't yet, wishlist XenoHaven on Steam to stay updated on our upcoming free demo and future tests.[/p][p]Your feedback is invaluable to us as we continue to improve and expand the game.[/p][p] [/p][p]We can't wait for you to experience the world we've been building—thank you for your support![/p][p] [/p][h3]Follow our community to get the latest information![/h3][p]💬Discord: https://discord.gg/p8jHhK7QH2[/p][p]🔗X: https://x.com/XenoHaven01[/p][p]🔗Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/xenohaven.bsky.social[/p][p][/p]

Took a Month Off… and Ended Up Adding a Dungeon Loot System!

[p]Hello everyone![/p][p]I’m the developer of XenoHaven, a sandbox survival RPG currently in development. If you’re a fan of sandbox survival experiences, please consider adding the game to your Wishlist—your support really helps us a lot! 💖[/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p]It’s been about a month since our last dev log update. During this time, besides continuing to optimize the game and fix bugs, we’ve also been working on implementing some new ideas. You can watch the video here , or scroll down for screenshots and details. [/p][p][/p][h2]🕹️ New Feature: Dungeon Exploration[/h2][p]Previously, we talked about the new Demon Servants System, which focused on strengthening your Demon Servants. However, one problem remained: while Demon Servants are powerful, the player character often feels fragile—many times, your Demon Servants are still fighting even after you’re already dead.[/p][p]To address this, we wanted players themselves to grow stronger through progression. That’s why we decided to add dungeon exploration![/p][p]● You can now craft and place staircases to open passages leading underground.[/p][p]● Some regions on the world map may also generate staircases that take you into underground zones of that biome.[/p][p]● Inside dungeons, you can mine resources with your pickaxe, fight monsters for materials, and even challenge dungeon bosses.[/p][p]Defeating bosses rewards you with random-quality accessories that improve your stats or grant special ability effects.[/p][p][/p][h2]💍 Accessory System[/h2][p]Accessories come in two categories: special accessories (1 slot) and general accessories (4 slots).[/p][p]● Special accessories offer unique power boosts.[/p][p]● General accessories include a wide range of buffs and effects.[/p][p]Accessories can be obtained from:[/p][p]● Dungeon boss drops[/p][p]● Treasure chests in the wild[/p][p]● Bio-Lab genetic patches, which can also be equipped in general accessory slots.[/p][p][/p][h2]🌍 New Biomes & Map Updates[/h2][p]Open the map and you’ll notice some changes! We’ve added more biome environments, including:[/p][p]● The eerie and sinister Demon Forest[/p][p]● The desolate and dangerous Volcano biome[/p][p]We also refined the way map tiles represent different features:[/p][p]● Desert tiles with houses indicate a village[/p][p]● Desert tiles with flags indicate bandit/rebel camps[/p][p][/p][h2]🎨 UI Improvements[/h2][p]Some of you may also notice slight changes in the UI. This is an area where we’ve received lots of feedback, and while it’s impossible to satisfy everyone’s preferences, we’ll continue to refine the interface step by step. Please keep sharing your thoughts with us—we really value your input![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]That’s all for this dev log![/p][p]If you’re interested in XenoHaven, don’t forget to add it to your Wishlist. And if you have any feedback or ideas, feel free to join our community and share your thoughts.[/p][p]Thanks again for your support—we’ll see you in the next update! 👋[/p][h3]Follow our community to get the latest information![/h3][p]💬Discord: https://discord.gg/p8jHhK7QH2[/p][p]🔗X: https://x.com/XenoHaven01[/p][p]🔗Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/xenohaven.bsky.social[/p][p][/p]

Mod your demon servants… or yourself? 👀

[p]Hi everyone! I'm the developer of XenoHaven, a sandbox survival RPG currently in development.[/p][p]Steam page: [/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p]In our last devlog, we showed how you can “swap heads” for your demon servants by crafting new ones in the Bio Lab. But that’s just the beginning.[/p][p] [/p][p]The Bio Lab can do much more — like creating powerful skill serums using genetic materials collected from various alien creatures. These serums can give your demon servants all kinds of buffs and new abilities to help them survive the world of XenoHaven.[/p][p] [/p][p]🎥 Watch the new devlog video here [/p][p][/p][p][/p]
