One of our demo players highlighted how difficult it is to play the game on a laptop with just a touchpad and no gamepad/controller or external mouse. We somehow managed to overlook this, so this is now fixed (in both the demo and the full game when it is released on 3rd November - not long!) and you can fully play the game using just the keyboard, keyboard and mouse or a controller.
You can edit the default keys or button mapping in the options screen within the main menu.
Happy hunting Pilot!
Howdy from Camp Swamp Ass,
I'm excited to finally launch 'Hoofobia: Alien Invasion'! This is a huge milestone, and because I'm an indie dev without a massive marketing machine, the launch will start small. That means in the early days, matchmaking might take a little longer than you’re used to, but it also means you'll be one of the first players helping us shape the community and balance of the game itself!

Changes:
- Replaced Police Station with a new one.
- Animatronics are now allowed to Text Chat with Survivors.
- Fixed a Bug Related to the Items, they didn't show the Green outline anymore.
- Fixed a Bug with the Leaderboard that the Profile pictures were massive.
- Some Performance Improvements.






Echoes from the Void is launching soon on November 5th, 2025 and will include two new room cosmetics and for you to enjoy and choose from in the Train Depot. Personalize your journey with the Rootbound Alcove and Dante’s Chambers, both of which you can see for the first time below!
In addition, Echoes from the Void will have new challenges and strategic possibilities with ten powerful new Artifacts to master.
Continue reading for a first look at the Room Cosmetics and Artifacts coming to Monster Train 2 on November 5th, 2025!
Something grows from behind the walls of the Skull Crusher. Vines twist and push into the train.. They are the roots of something unknowable, incomprehensible, beyond the scope of our wildest imaginations. What are they searching for? What whispers from where the roots grow? Perhaps the cosmic horrors of the void were growing beneath our feet this whole time.
Take a seat by the fireplace and immerse yourself in the dark elegance of Dante’s Chambers. With the intricate details and subtle accents, Dante’s personal room is befitting of his character. But who is Dante? Whose skull does he keep on his side table? Do you think he'll be mad if he discovers all of these horrible monsters have been fighting all over his freshly shampooed rugs?
Excited to add some flair to your runs? Both the Rootbound Alcove and Dante's Chambers will both be available in Echoes from the Void for free on November 5th!
Next, please continue reading for a first look at the ten new Artifacts coming soon to Monster Train 2!

The Skull Crusher's manifest, a grim tome bound in the hides of fallen foes, meticulously records every warrior who dares to march against the celestial legions of Heaven. This clanless artifact transforms non-banner units, granting them Deployable.

Through a mysterious, unknown magic, a sliver of the great darkness from which the Titans emerged has been confined within an orb. At the end of the entire battle, this Artifact allows players to purge a card immediately.

An item from Herzal’s past, this artifact has mysteriously made its way into the hands of Hell’s soldiers. During the Deployment Phase, discard any number of cards. Then, this Artifact draws that same number of cards to the player’s hand.

Encased in crystal, a wing from Heaven has long puzzled archivists, who wonder if it belonged to a lost Angel or something more mysterious. This Artifact gives Permafrost to cards that cost three or more Ember.

A distorted mirrored object that distorts and reveals what the holder most fears. The first time each turn you target a friendly unit with a spell, non-move effects also hit all other friendly units on the floor.
A horrid plant emerges from the earth. Each artifact offers a different opportunity to create a permanent copy of a card to your deck. Players will have to roll the dice and decide if they wish to continue and get a potentially higher reward, or take the option before them.
The first option, Lifemother’s Seed, creates a permanent copy of a random non-champion card in your deck.
The second option, Lifemother’s Bloom, creates a permanent copy of a non-champion card in your deck.
The third option, Lifemother’s Remnant, creates a permanent copy of the first non-champion card played each turn.

A relic from the time of the First Armageddon, this artifact only offers selections from your allied clan.

The most mysterious and (perhaps) powerful of the ten newest Artifacts, the Shardsoul grants an extra ember per turn, one more ember during the Deployment Phase, an increase in capacity on each floor, and draws an extra card each turn. An incredible artifact, if you can find it!
With these powerful new artifacts, Echoes from the Void promises to shake up your strategies and test your deckbuilding prowess. Is there an Artifact that you just can't wait to use in a run? Let us know in the #mt2-future-content-chat channel in the official Shiny Shoe Discord server!
We hope you’re as excited as we are for Monster Train 2: Echoes from the Void, the second FREE content update launching on November 5th, 2025! This is the last sneak peek on Steam but, if you want to get a spooky look at the boss designs that never were, please subscribe to our newsletter, which will be sent out on October 31st!
See you on November 5th!
