Hello everyone!

It’s time to reveal the biggest change in the upcoming update: a complete overhaul of the PvP game mode. This game mode has not received any attention from us in a long time, so now we wanted to bring it up to par with the rest of the game.

Two new mission types The PvP overhaul introduces two brand new mission types: Outpost Deathmatch and King of the Hull.

• In Outpost Deathmatch, two teams battle inside one of two purpose-built outposts. The first team to reach a set amount of kills gets the win.

The next update is now about a month away, so it’s time to take a closer look at what’s new on Europa this time. We’ll cover the “big thing” in the update in our next post, and this time, let’s take a look at…

The update will also include brand new events that will encourage exploration and give you more information on the mysterious beings behind the ruins.

Exploring the ruins will also be more rewarding. Dementonite can now be used to craft more experimental items, like gravity-affecting ammunition for your submarine. The gene splicing system is also r... Read more

v1.5.9.2

- Fixed an exploit that allowed clients to crash servers when hosting through SteamP2P.
- Fixed crashing when loading a save in which a character has a deconstruct order and an item marked for deconstruction is outside hulls.

Hello everyone!

We’ve been back at our desks for a few weeks now, and it’s time to turn our eyes towards the second major update of 2024.

This next update is going to be in the oven for a while longer, but remember that you can try out all the upcoming features and changes in the Unstable version as they roll out for playtesting throughout the next couple of months.

Coming in October
Just like last autumn with the Treacherous Tides update, we’ll again be overhauling and fleshing out a game mode which hasn’t received a lot of attention in recent years. Can you guess which one it will be this time?

In addition to this overhaul, you can look forward to improvements to alien ruins, new additions in the Velonaceps calyx depa... Read more
