Descenders News

One of the most requested features of Descenders has always been a level editor where users can build their own levels to share with friends, and thanks to the amazing efforts of Mayhem and the modding corner of the Discord, you can now build your own levels, import them and share them with others!



You'll have to get to grips with Unity and some 3D Modelling software like Blender, but the results are amazing and we're so excited to see what people start to build. A few cool looking maps are already shaping up, like this one from Chicken666!



We'd love to keep supporting modding if enough people are interested in it, so this is your invitation to get stuck in and involved! The modding section has all the details you'll need to start importing and building maps as well as some helpful advice, streams and guides to building the map of your dreams.

Let us know how you get on, help other users build and get involved and get playing some custom maps - we can't wait to see what you dream up!

1.0 is finally here! We're so excited to share the complete Descenders experience with you and we cannot wait to see you share it with your friends!

First off, a big thank you so much to all the folks who've been watching the game progress since we first launched into Early Access - your kindness, your passion for the game and your sick runs have been keeping our fires lit and pushed us through, we could not have done this without you!

So, what's new?



MULTIPLAYER IS HERE!
Find other players from around the world in the new hub and career modes, or join up with some friends in a casual lobby! Race down the steepest tracks, chill out at the skate park or play a game of hide and seek, the nine worlds are now all yours to play with however you and your friends want to!

NEW WORLDS
Mastered Peaks? Got that Volcano run down? Then it's time to jump into the FOUR NEW WORLDS complete with their own boss jumps! These are testing environments with some difficult obstacles, so make sure to bring your A-game! You can even get practising in the BRAND NEW HUB!

MORE GEAR
It's time for a new colour scheme. Trust us. Maybe even a new handlebar companion, complete with totally not annoying noises. Perhaps a community built item (shoutout to the amazing designers in our Discord whose items made the cut
To celebrate all this new hotness, Descenders will be 25% for a whole week! There's never been a better time to grab some friends and jump in!

We're excited to ride alongside you and see you all at the bottom. This has been a wild ride for us, and we're glad you're right there with us.

Descenders is Now Available on Steam and is 25% off!*

Descenders is extreme downhill freeriding for the modern era, with procedurally generated worlds, and where mistakes have real consequences. Will you lead your team to glory and become the next legendary Descender?

After 15 months, and more than half a dozen major updates, Descenders is ready to leave Early Access. Thanks so much for taking this journey with us, and prepare yourselves for what the full Descenders experience has in store for you!

Here's what you can expect when The Multiplayer Update drops on May 7.



Imagine this: You boot up Descenders, into the brand new central hub (more on this below). All of a sudden, a bike goes flying by... then another... and another!

When you boot up Descenders, and anytime you go back to the main lobby, your hub will be filled with other players. You can ride around with them, check out high scores, explore the outskirts of the hub, whatever you like.

When you dash off into a Career session, you won't be alone either. You'll encounter random riders, playing the same seed as you in real-time. There are no collisions so you can't smash into each other, but you can race through the world and explore together.





If you're not a fan of stranger danger, you can choose to start a Casual Lobby with friends. Invite your friends via Steam, and they can join up with you, and race through any of the worlds in the game.

It's up to you whether you race, explore, compete for score, mess around together, see if you can line up 7 riders and jump over all of them...

How you play Descenders with your friends is up to you!



Was five worlds not enough for you? How about four brand new worlds you've never played before?

Introducing CareerPlus Mode. When you've collected enough Rep, you'll unlock this mode which essentially gives you a whole new Career to play through, complete with four new worlds.

Check out the gifs for a sneak peek. And speaking of new areas...





Whenever you boot up the game or finish a run, you'll be booted into the new central hub area. It's much, much bigger than the original hub, and features a bunch of really cool areas to explore.

You can still find The Shed, and your team's tent, but you'll also find other useful areas, like a giant leaderboard that updates to show your best scores.



New music! New options! New sounds! New items! New bikes! New achievements! Play as a man or woman! New everything!

When the 1.0 Update hits on May 7, Descenders is going to feel like a very different game -- and we can't wait to share it with you.

See you all next week!

Love
