B129 Dev Diary #1: Campaign & reworked narration
Hello skippers!
We prepared a first video in a series that will introduce to you the features upcoming in B129. We will keep posting videos like this one every two weeks to keep you up to date with our progress. There is much more exciting news ahead.

[h3]Map improvements[/h3]
We continued to work on the in-game map as we felt that it still needs some polish for the upcoming release. All map skins were upgraded and a new skin was added that maximizes the paper look.
[h3]Campaign[/h3]
This update will introduce a complete campaign consisting of various kinds of missions. It will span through the whole war and will take place all over the Atlantic. You won't be forced to complete the campaign missions, but they will offer useful rewards that won't be possible to obtain otherwise.
[h3]Narration[/h3]
We reworked how the narration happening outside the ship is presented in the game. It's now both more attractive and easier to interact with. What you see right now is a weather station placement mission that is part of the campaign. It also uses this new system to narrate the story.
There are dozens of other, big changes upcoming in this update. Stay safe and see you in the two weeks for more info!
A friendly studio from our country, GameFormatic S.A. decided to port UBOAT to VR platforms! It's a promising project that will allow the game to be played in a completely new way. If you enjoy playing games in VR, consider showing some support to the team behind it and giving hints about your preferences and expectations.
