Hi all,

This update introduces a brand new prestige system. Every 100 levels, you can now choose to prestige. This will reset all in-game stats like your level, high score, balance, but it will not affect your achievement progress in any way. Don't wanna lose your level 500 just to prestige once? Not a worry! You can prestige multiple times in one click, 1 prestige for every 100 levels banked, 10 prestiges maximum. This will make getting the new achievements super handy if you're already level 500.

This update also includes; allowing you to use your cosmetics in Most Wanted, Time Trial #5, the end of the Halloween event, removal of Money Clicker, and balance changes!

Experience the craziest and most experimental time trial yet! You have 80 seconds to collect 5 crystals and reach the end, with the twist of it being pitch black! That's correct. You cannot see the crystals, your ship, or the watcher during green light. So use the red light time wisely, and calculate your next step.

• Prestige System

• Time Trial #5 added

• Money Clicker has been permanently removed

• Updated "How to Play" guide

• Ship skins now unlocked for Most Wanted

• Increased small asteroid points from 25 → 125

• Increased medium asteroid points from 75 → 250

• Increased large asteroid points from 125 → 375

• Classic Normal Ship now moves 33% faster

• Asteroids now move 5% slower

• Heavy Barrel duration increased by 1.5 seconds

• Heavy Barrel cooldown decreased by 10 seconds

• Fast Reflex duration increased by 0.5 seconds

• Fast Reflex cooldown decreased by 3 seconds

• Incinerating Beam cooldown decreased by 25 seconds

• Nuclear Flash cooldown increased by 20 seconds

We’ve listened to your feedback and have been working hard to make Night Swarm even better and we’re still improving!
This update brings tons of exciting new content, biome-specific systems, and deeper combat variety.

• All Companions Reworked!
  Every companion now has their own unique skill, and the old skill slot system has been completely removed.

• Roderic’s Power Expanded
  He now wields 6 skill slots instead of 2, allowing for far more creative builds.

• Forest Biome – Poisonous zones can now appear, forcing players to adapt their routes.

• Ice Biome – Added cold & warmth mechanics, introducing survival-style gameplay.

• Desert Biome – Sandstorms now act as new environmental hazards, and you may even encounter deadly Sand Worms.

• Corrupted Vampire Duels
  1v1 battles are now more dynamic and challenging with improved mechanics and pacing.

🔥 This is our biggest demo update yet, setting the stage for the full release in December.
We’d love to hear your thoughts, jump in, test the new systems, and share your feedback!

We’re thrilled to announce that Night Swarm will officially launch on December 4!

This is just the beginning — the full release will bring new boss variants, deeper progression, and expanded Totem systems, all built on the foundation of your incredible feedback during Next Fest.

What an incredible week it’s been! We want to take a moment to sincerely thank everyone who played Night Swarm during Steam Next Fest.

Seeing so many of you dive into the chaos, experiment with builds, and share your experiences has been truly inspiring for our small team.

Next Fest wasn’t just a demo, it was a dialogue.

We’ve read your comments, watched your playthroughs, and taken your suggestions to heart.

Your feedback drives us to optimize, polish, and push Night Swarm further every single day.

Please keep sharing your thoughts — they truly shape the future of the game.

From the entire Night Swarm team — thank you for your passion, your time, and your support.

We’re building this world together, and your enthusiasm keeps the swarm alive.

Stay tuned, stay sharp, and we’ll see you on December 4.

We've also brought in a new legendary book - The Illuminati's Guide to Empire Optimization. This legendary is available in Japan used book boxes and will provide a 15% bonus to other store's passive income efficiency when activated in the store you're running at the end of the day.

Book posters are framed items that can be placed on the wall just like the paintings. They are available in the Depot Max app in the same category as paintings.
