The Wilderness Wardrobe Update Is Now Live!



We’re excited to announce that our latest update is now live! This release focuses on refining your gameplay experience with a range of quality-of-life changes, bug fixes, and some key balancing adjustments.

Welcome New Players!
A warm welcome to all our new players who’ve recently joined the community! We’re thrilled to have you on board. Demo mode is now back online, so if you’re looking to explore the game with friends, it’s a great (and free) way to get a feel for everything we have to offer.

Balancing & Improvements

Abandoned Ranger

• The Abandoned Ranger objective has now been added to Normal games. Previously, this was only available in Custom games.
  
• We’ve rebalanced the sabotaging mechanics. Signal Boosters that have been sabotaged will now require players to gather a small number of resources to repair them.
  

Wild Spirit

• To prevent exploits, the Wild Spirit ability can no longer be used immediately in front of entrances or buildings. However, be aware that a transformed bear might still block these entrances!
  
• Traitor Items
  

Traitor Crates

• The spawn rate of energy drinks in Traitor Crates has been increased.
  

Objectives & Armory

• We’ve increased the difficulty of the Smoke Signal, Repair, and Stockpile objectives.
  
• The probability of different items, including guns, spawning in armory crates has also been adjusted.
  
• Cosmetics
  

Cosmetics

• New cosmetics are now available in-store for September, along with additions to our permanent Store collection.
  

Notable Bug Fixes 

• Fixed various issues with snowshoes, ensuring they are consumed correctly and updating their description to reflect that they leave no snow trail. 
  
• Corrected an issue where Traitors were unable to open bunkers with Traitor Credits. 
  
• The Ally role description has been updated to correctly state that the Ally Player can take on multiple roles, not just survivor. 
  
• Corrected the sickle skin's range, ensuring it matches the default sickle.

Hey Survivors!

They Beware Lamps update is now live!



This update focuses primarily on quality-of-life changes, balancing and bug fixes as we continue work on reworking custom games.

Balance Changes

Abandoned Ranger

• Based on feedback from the community, we reviewed and rebalanced the animal waves for the Abandoned Ranger objective. There is now updated logic for how many and what type of animal will spawn based on the state (sabotaged vs not sabotaged) and how many survivors are still alive.
  

Some notable bug fixes

• Fixed an issue where animal waves would not begin after a signal tower was sabotaged. Now, animal waves will spawn for one minute if the signal tower is reactivated via sabotage.
  
• Fixed an issue with the Abandoned Ranger objective where animal spawn radius for the signal towers; previously the radius was very small, so animal waves would only spawn if you were very, very close to the signal tower.
  
• Fixed an issue in Custom Games where the game settings may become desynchronized across players if the host changed the setting in the lobby. This would have caused players to see different objectives and roles from the host. This may have also caused loading issues where some players may have experienced a ‘hang’ while loading into the match.
  
• Fixed an issue in Custom Games where the match may fail to load if the host modified the animal health values.
  

Cosmetics

As always, you will see new cosmetics in-store for the months of July and August!
