Hey all!

Almost half a year after the launch, we are happy to present you 1.1 content update, coupled with Nintendo Switch release. The game is also Steam Deck verified now and should run smoothly on your Steam Decks.

We've added one new boss fight on the second map and some new trinkets that we wanted to see in the final version of the game.

You can check out the Nintendo Switch version here.

Thank you for playing our games!

Another hotfix? Sorry about all the patches, some pretty major bugs keep popping up this update! Hopefully this is the last hotfix for now!

This time, we've fixed an issue where the boss rematches in the Boss Fights mode were completely unplayable, as neither the player nor the boss could hit each other, and the game would softlock at the end of the match.

• Udpated the collider of the "Pipe" object to make it less likely to clip through walls

A decade has passed, and still, they are cursed by a lot of stalkers. No retired fanatics, they say. Deserving a shot when only seen in a scope. When Ward’s order came along with the D4 pact — they agreed to do things that made even the drilled-up Dutiers glance at Perimeter.


Monolith is dead. Though for the majority, its cause lingers while the Wild Island exists. And while Strider is trying to pull his brothers out of hell, Faust… Has his own picture of the future.
