Exciting update for Easy Red 2! We’re introducing an optional Lua-based Scripting System that lets you completely customize your missions:
Create new game modes, design unique mission objectives (like destroying a target or triggering explosions), and fine-tune AI and soldier behaviors—all while working alongside the default Mission Editor. Whether you’re editing scripts in-game or using your favorite external editor, this system gives you unprecedented control over every mission phase and AI action.
This system have been added in the game, but it's currently very early and not finalized at all. There are still many functions that needs to be added, especially in order to properly handle inventories, UI elements and custom sounds. We will also provide new Mission-Editor tool to acquire IDs of vehicles, items, squads, world positions and more, in order to properly use them in your scripts.
However much of it can be used to start prototyping some new experiences! Once ready this system will of course be used for vanilla missions as well to create a more dynamic and less repetitive gameplay!
You can start making your script by taking a look to Easy Red 2 Scripting system docs.
Feel free to try the system as it is and to join the Discord Server where we have dedicated channel to report problems with the system, suggest new scripting features and share your scripts so other members of the community can use them in their missions!
Finally we are in the very last stages of the making of the Shanghai-Nanking DLC, where we are currently setting up last missions and testing them to ensure to bring the highest quality as possible.
This DLC will bring 2 maps (with around 100 new map props) and several missions on them, various vehicles and weapons, more than 70 clothing pieces and the new China faction!
You can wishlist the DLC now here!

We don't have a very precise release date yet on any platform, but we expect it to be available on Steam between 3 and 6 weeks!
We have been working with Sony to ensure the game build complies with PlayStation's quality guidelines. Not only is the build 100% ready, but it also strictly adheres to all the requirements for release on PlayStation.
The approval process is revealing being a bit more tricky than expected so hopefully we'll be able to bring good news about this very soon!

In case you didn't know we have defined a precise roadmap for the next months of development and you can read it here.
We keep improving all features of the base game and as always we will be going on listening to suggestions from people inside the Steam Discussions and the Discord server.
Thank you all,
Marco
