The full release of Shotgun Farmers will contain brand new content, such as the new map Oceanside, the new WatermeLMG gun, the new Cocussion Grenade, and lots of new cosmetics!

Early access players will not need to purchase the game again. It will update in your Steam library on the day of release – you don’t need to do anything else! Make sure to tune in to our Launch Day Live Stream Party right here on Steam! More details to follow in the Discord!

You can still grab Shotgun Farmers in Early Access and be part of the original community!

P.S. the next gun is almost ready!

I simply cannot believe it's already been 1 year since Shotgun Farmers came out on Early Access. I'd like to give my sincerest thanks to each and every one of you that has supported the game so far, helped us find bugs, helped come up with funny new ideas, and helped to share the game with the world.

If you play this week you'll be able to unlock the exclusive Anniversary badge, hat, and shovel skin! You won't be able to unlock them after June 10th.

We're not done yet! There's still plenty more content coming to Shotgun Farmers. Remember that you can help us decide on new things over at the Shotgun Farmers Discord

Thank you for making this game and this community great. See you on the farm!
