[Notice] New Content Added After Steam Next Fest



Hello, Survivors.

Today, we’d like to give you a brief overview of the new content that will be added following the Steam Next Fest.

You’ll be able to experience all of the following features in the upcoming global open beta!

Take a look below and get ready—there’s a lot to look forward to.

[h3]▶ Survivor's Companion: Pets Are Here![/h3]

Even in the DARKEST DAYS, a little light can shine through.

Survive the horrors of Sand Creek with a loyal companion by your side! Pets aren’t just cute, they come with unique abilities that help you scavenge for supplies.

This is just the beginning. Expect more unique pets in future updates!

[h3]▶ New Resident, New Quests: Meet Luna Bloody[/h3]

Introducing Luna Bloody, a competitive and diligent new survivor.

Once a teen American Kendo Champion, Luna now wields her sword to protect herself and those around her. Her drive and strength make her a powerful ally in your fight for survival.

A new quest for Luna has also been added. Recruit Luna Bloody and uncover what drives her spirit through her story.

[h3]▶ Improvements to Reward Systems[/h3]
1) Lonetree Tunnel Rewards Rebalanced

Running low on materials for your Shelter and Facilities?
Each section of Lonetree Tunnel now offers valuable materials to help you build and upgrade faster.

[h3]2) Multiplayer Mode Rewards Adjusted[/h3]
Enjoy a more immersive gameplay experience across all multiplayer modes.
Collect Cents, remnants of the old world, in Bielli Island, Pamrein, and Holitore. Cents can be traded for special items.

Conquer Rootland, where elite Survivors battle, and earn reinforcement materials to take your growth to the next level.

[h3]▶ Balance and QoL Improvements.[/h3]
1) Faster Early Game Progression
We’ve shortened early growth times to enhance your early game experience by making it more exciting and rewarding.
Progress through early quests quicker and become a seasoned Survivor… fast enough to make the Masked Group nervous.

[h3]2) New Vehicle Summoning System[/h3]

You can now summon your Vehicle directly from the Garage menu, wherever you are in Sand Creek.
No more traveling to the Exploration Tower or Community, get out fast before the horde closes in.

If you're ever in doubt, summon your Vehicle before you're surrounded by zombies.

※ All features and content described in these development notes are still under active development. Final details may change.


We look forward to seeing you again in the global open beta on April 24.

Thank you!
