Greetings mortal! We are back with a third major Content Update and there's a lot new stuff for all of you to enjoy, explore and exterminate!
This update brings in a brand new level called The Hollow - a forest choked with ancient trees and forgotten ruins. Delve into the heart of the long-corrupted woods and discover the new Trinket of Deflection, an Artifact that summons an arcane shield. Activate the Trinket of Deflection in emergencies to ward off enemy projectiles or go on the offensive and unleash bullets, bones, and blood. But beware the Lurker, a new aquatic abomination waiting in the depths.

Weapon & Enemy Balance
- Changed the Retcher's attacks slightly: primary attack cysts can now attach to surfaces and act as proximity mines. Players can shoot their own cysts to detonate them. Secondary attack cysts now bounce.

- Reworked the Executioner’s charge and turning speeds
- Wretches now give 15 health instead of 20 when the Life Siphon is used
Known Issues
- There may be rare instances of faces that are completely black or have weird lighting going on; this is a byproduct of a new map compiler we’re using. These issues will be solved for the release version.
