Hello everyone!
Today we want to discuss the next steps in our development, what you can expect to see in future updates, and some other notable news.
It’s been a long time since we’ve publicly said anything about future goals and updates for the game. The time has finally come to change this. For more details about the update, you can view the Devlog on our YouTube channel:

The 11.0 Update[/h2]
Our next major update will be 11.0. With it comes a multitude of gameplay-, interface- and content additions. The main focus of the update is a complete weapon overhaul. It will feature, not only model changes, but also the entire system circulating it. This means that it will influence how the weapons control, how their attachments operate, and how they will interact with the game.
This rework also means that some current weapons will be removed. The change is nothing to be sad about as multiple new weapons will take their place. Despite this being the main focus, there will be other additions, and bug fixes. For now, we will be keeping that a secret.
[h2]New Official Websites[/h2]Along with this post, comes the release of our brand new websites. Previously, we had only one website that was severely outdated, and lacked important functionality. Let’s talk about what each website does.
The “Main” site is where you can find general information about the game, like public updates and other news. You can also find links to all of our official media including the twitch, YouTube, wiki, Patreon etc.
We’ve also added a new “Support” site. This site is completely dedicated to support. There you can directly search for support articles; view the FAQ; find information on game bans and how to appeal; see the status of our game servers; and how to contact us. Regarding ban appeals, we will only be processing those sent through the website, and will no longer be handling them via email.
If you find any bugs or room for improvement, please let us know by sending an email to

Support Site: https://support.scpslgame.com/[h2]Patreon Update[/h2]For three years Patreon has been our only source of income. Maintaining a, relatively, popular multiplayer game is difficult, and an expensive exercise for a small studio like ours. We’d like to take a moment to thank all current, and former, Patreon supporters for helping us to cover development costs. Without you new updates would not have been possible.
Our Patreon page has recently been updated. Most importantly, it has been renamed to “Northwood Studios”. Descriptions, screenshots, and the disclaimer section have also received some changes. Rewards will, however, remain unchanged.
Moving forward, we are committed to sharing more information on the Patreon site itself. We will be attempting to post updates at least once a month, providing you with additional information and some cool sneak peeks about 11.0. Soon, a new post covering a lot of details about the weapons overhaul will be released to all Scientist-tier, and higher, Patreon supporters.
[h2]Goodbye![/h2]Have a great day, and thank you, once again, for supporting Northwood Studios and SCP: Secret Laboratory!
