Estimated Downtime

3 hours and 45 minutes

Notes

• Standard weekly maintenance 

• World Boss Push Rewards will be distributed

Key Points

• Reminder: The server will be down for 2 to 3 hours longer than usual to accommodate the NFT migration.

• Reminder: NFT Heroes should be unstaked before the server reset on November 6th.

  • The server will reset at approximately 1pm PST (9pm UTC).

  • Unstaking requests should be made at least 48 hours in advance.

  • If you intend to sell your NFT before the migration, your unstaking request likely won’t be approved in time.

• All NFT holders will need to link their Kongregate account to their Passport wallet.

  • This can be done at https://zkevm.thebitverse.io/

  • These steps have been added to the FAQ.

  • This will be required to use the Claim Hero process after the migration has finished

We would once again like to remind you that our migration to the new zkEVM network will be taking place as part of our weekly server reset this Thursday starting at approximately 1pm PST (9pm UTC). Due to the complexity of this update, please allow for 2 to 3 additional hours of maintenance while the team works to implement the migration.

Also, please remember that NFT Heroes should be fully unstaked before we begin with the weekly reset. If you haven’t unstaked your Bitverse NFT Hero before, we recommend this video guide from a member of our official Content Creator program, bitverse_andy!

To ensure your unstaking request is processed by the time this migration begins, we recommend submitting your request at least 48 hours before the server reset begins. Any NFT Heroes that are still staked during the reset will need to follow our Claim Hero process to be returned to their proper owner. This process may take several days depending on the volume of Claim Hero requests we receive.

We plan to have all requests completed before we begin the migration, however, if you intend to unstake and sell your NFT before the migration begins it is highly unlikely we will be able to process your request quickly enough due to the large volume of requests we have already received. In this situation, you should plan to migrate the NFT to a Passport wallet first, then sell the NFT to the interested buyer afterwards.

Previously, we mentioned that you will need to link your new Passport wallet to your Kongregate account as a part of this migration. We have clarified what steps you will need to take to complete this in our FAQs.

This step will be necessary for the Claim Hero process, so you will need to complete this step even if you are unable to access your current Ethereum wallet. Furthermore, if you intend to make use of the Claim Hero process, it is vital that your Kongregate account and your Passport wallet have the exact same email associated and verified. This is the only way we can verify ownership without access to the original wallet.

To be prepared for next week’s migration, we suggest linking your Passport wallet to your Kongregate account as soon as possible. You can do this via the Account page on https://zkevm.thebitverse.io/.

New/Updated FAQs:

• How do I unstake my NFT hero? \[New]

• How do I link my Kongregate account to my Passport wallet? \[Updated]

• Why don’t I see my NFT Hero in my Inventory once my Kongregate account is linked to my Passport wallet? \[New]

• How do I claim my NFT Hero? \[New]

• How do I change my Kongregate to Passport linkage if I make a mistake? \[New]

Servers will be down for maintenance tomorrow 11/4/25 @ 6AM PST. for a ~3hr downtime window for this update. See the patch notes below.

Greetings, Auraxians! The 13th Anniversary of PlanetSide 2 is just around the corner, and we’re celebrating in style! Get ready for a wealth of new themed content, a full Infiltrator rework, new implants and the introduction of animated camouflages!

After four phases of testing, we’re excited to present the reworked Infiltrator class! Throughout the process, we’ve made adjustments based on your feedback from the PTS, and we hope you’ll enjoy the changes and new features.

However, we understand that live server conditions — especially during large-scale battles involving hundreds of players — may feel different from the PTS experience. That’s why we invite you to take part in our feedback survey about the new features.

Your feedback is incredibly important to us, and we’re ready to make further adjustments based on in-game statistics and survey results!

• Increased delay between decloaking and firing

• Cloaked players are now more visible and audible at close range 

• Stalker Cloak no longer allows infinite stealth while moving 

• Increased delay between decloaking and firing 

• Cloak effectiveness decreases significantly at close distances 

• A deployable scout drone can be equipped as a tool and be controlled by the Infiltrator

• It can mark enemies for allies within a limited range

  • Advanced Sensors System (Tier 6): Spotted enemies remain marked even if they cloak

• Hanging Munition Ability: Allows the drone to deploy any grenade available to the Infiltrator class

• The Infiltrator remains stationary and vulnerable while piloting the drone 

• The Drone has a limited battery, low health, and emits detectable audio/visual cues

• The drone cannot be used in conjunction with cloaking abilities

• Based on player feedback from PTS, C4 can not be attached to the Recon Drone

• New Observer Implant for the Engineer class. By equipping this implant, Spitfire turrets can now spot cloaked Infiltrators and attack them. Ignores the Avoidance implant

• New Infiltrator Implant – Remote Hacking Effect: This implant enables the Infiltrator to use the Recon Drone to hack enemy turrets and terminals

  • Recommended Workaround:
    We suggest assigning separate keybindings for “Hacking/Interacting” and “Exit Vehicle” to improve gameplay comfort

• New Engineer Implant – Sharing Is Caring
  Effect: Upon activation, the Engineer’s entire personal shield is depleted, redistributing its energy to nearby squad members within a limited radius.
  Result: Affected allies temporarily gain bonus shield capacity that exceeds their normal maximum (up to a defined cap)

• New Combat Medic Implant – Hospitaller
  Effect: While reviving a fallen ally, the Combat Medic’s personal shield capacity is increased

A new scope glint mechanic has been added to provide counterplay against long-range, hidden snipers.

• Trigger: Visible only when aiming down sights with optics of 6x zoom or higher

• Effect: Creates a bright reflection (glint) visible to enemies in line of sight

This encourages snipers to reposition more frequently and take more deliberate shots, while maintaining the lethality of precision weapons

Players have the option to disable Scope Glint effect on allied players (same faction) in the game settings

Based on player feedback and the enhanced spotting capabilities of the Reckon Drone, we have made the following adjustments to Infiltrator spotting tools:

The number of Motion Spotters a player can carry has been adjusted:
Changed from: 2 / 3 / 3 / 4 / 5
To: 1 / 1 / 1 / 2 / 3

Number of Darts Capacity Changes:

• Recon Detect Device 04: from 3 to 2

• Recon Detect Device 05: from 4 to 2

• Recon Detect Device 06: from 5 to 3

Detection Range Changes:

• Old Range (meters): 25 / 30 / 35 / 40 / 45 / 50

• New Range (meters): 20 / 20 / 25 / 30 / 35 / 40

The Spitfire Auto - Turret directive will now be counted when using Spitfire turrets, Observer turrets, and Prime directive turrets.

Unfortunately, at this time we have limited control over the conditions for triggering and rotating Biolab Alerts and the Koltyr continent. As a result, we’ve decided to postpone their return to future updates.
Thank you for your feedback and understanding!

Yes, you read that right!

Hey everyone
I am super excited to finally announce the release date for Fields of Fortune.

The game will enter Early Access on February 12 2026.

Without Early Access, the game would have been released at the earliest in Q4 2026. Now you have the chance to jump in earlier and give feedback while the game continues to grow.

Why Early Access?

The game is already fully playable. Currently you have around 25 hours of content until you reach the fully automated farm (depending on RNG ːsteamhappyː).

With Early Access, I also want to deliver further major updates and improve the game based on your feedback.

The main reason for starting Early Access is you. Your feedback will go directly into the game to make Fields of Fortune even better.

Try the demo, test the new features, and tell me what you think :)

Don’t forget to wishlist and follow to stay up to date and be part of the journey :)

Seasons will be an additional update that implements a highscore system in the game. Everyone can participate in this competition. There will be special and unique rewards. More details will follow later ;)

Upcoming Updates:

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug where the money on the match summary screen wouldn’t increment properly.

• Fixed a bug where switching characters didn’t fully swap all clothing, causing arms to disappear and the character to look out of place.

• Fixed a bug where the screen would go black in the lobby when another player joined.

Changes

• Removed the sound effect coming from the lights near each tent.

Balancing

• Adjusted ghost aggression on Average difficulty.

• Reduced item prices in the store.

• Slight adjustments to the colour of the highlighters and markers in the sketchbook theme.

• Fixed a visual issue where overmarked (pink) targets would not fade in/out correctly on color systems.

Been some time since the last update, but promise I'm still cracking away at Deadlocked bit by bit! So here's what I've been working on (shortened into a few lines)

• Boss Rush Mode: Challenge your skills and beat 3 progressively stronger versions of Abso-Unit in this increasingly difficult survival mode. This one won't be easy ːmediconː

• Endless Mode: Want just to grind out some scrap and kill a bunch of robots? Endless Mode is now available and ready to play! Turn up that music and get crackin ːcgrazzː

Charge up to 6 rocket-powered rounds with the quick boom! The fastest way to get rid of your robo ops

Blast enemies with two guns instead of one! Fast way to get the job done

Turn enemies into pixels with this gamified shotgun

Fires 3 bullets at once and looks like a dragon... what else can you really say?

Defeat Abso-Unit and take control of an army of explosive mini-robots with the newly added Abso-Launcher!

Takes good care of his homies when they're low on health! Give yourself another chance with Plus-One +

Looking at those sweet, sweet upgrades, but never enough scrap? Scrappy makes most of the bolts and gets you an extra 1-6 scrap every time scrap is collected... talk about resourceful!

• New VFX and clearer combat readability

• Slight tweaks to environments and UI improvements

• Improved hit feedback and general targeting

• Easier distinction between player, enemies, and projectiles

• Tightened up enemy animations for better readability and feedback

• Fixed UI Compatibility

• Fixed Controller aiming sensitivity

• Reworked progression flow and difficulty curve

• Adjusted weapon and enemy balance for smoother pacing

• Improved reward scaling and resource drops

• Fixed various UI scaling and resolution issues

• Optimized performance

• Major bug fixes for controller input, ability interactions, and physics glitches

• New smexy audio

I'll be focusing on solidifying the features this update has implemented, but also looking at implementing features that would expand on character customization ːsteamthumbsupː

That being said, I will continue adding weapons and pets, and hopefully, once the foundation is done, I can move on to working on the next arena/boss fight ːcgrazzːːcgrazzːːcgrazzː

Hey everyone! Hope you had good weekend.

New update is here with some improvements, balance changes, and bug fixes.

-New Radial Menu (Default Q key) — pressing it now opens a quick radial menu instead of just cycling through weapons. You can switch between Equipment and Consumables, making it much easier to quickly heal, eat, or pick the right weapon in combat.

-Scientist #4 quest updated — now the quest marker points to the portal instead of directly to the Arctic Military Base (to avoid confusion).

-Car engine sound improved — it’s still a work in progress, but should sound a bit better for now. I plan to replace it later with a more dynamic system (with gear shifts and more variety).

-“Store All” in storage now skips weapons — no more accidentally storing your guns!

-Fixed Story Notes Challenge and Steam Achievement not triggering correctly.

-Default vehicle storage increased — now 80 slots by default, and 100 with the storage upgrade.

-Water Storages are now refillable! They slowly refill a bit after each rain (not fully, but it helps).

-Hunger re-balance — your character now survives a bit longer without food, so you can focus more on exploration instead of constant eating.

-Day cycle slightly slowed down — days last longer.

-Fixed several floating objects above ground.

-Fixed inaccessible garden soil inside barns.

-Fixed a few collision and localization issues.

-Fixed infinite UI toggle bug (Inventory, Map, Journal) that happened when holding keys.

-Improved resolution settings when using 4K monitors.

-After cleaning/renovating house areas, drinking a water bottle now correctly gives back an empty bottle.

-Fixed repairing ladders, lab panels, etc. — now crafting resources are actually consumed (no more free repairs).

-Improved vehicle paint color loading — your paint and skin now load properly after reloading the game (no need to reapply in the shop).

-Mushrooms and Grilled Mushrooms now display the correct hunger restoration percentage in their descriptions.

-Sleeping Tent is now properly called “Sleeping Tent” in the world, not “Bed.”

I’m continuing work on more improvements, bigger content updates coming soon.

Thanks again for being part of this journey — your support and feedback keep this project alive and moving forward every day.

Our new predator Terror Bird is now in the world of Primal Survival!

We’ve begun work on a forest-themed new map! Denser foliage, different prey species and new exploration zones are in development.

This giant bird could appear in arid lands and in forested regions.

Fast, deadly and fiercely aggressive.

When you spot it you’ll want to flee… but it’s faster than you.
