- Early access launched on October 20th.
- 8 Updates have been released since early access launched.
- 50+ Bug fixes/quality of life features implemented.
What's next?
Immediate: 1-2 more smaller updates are still to be released before the end of 2022.
Short term: First major update is coming in Q1 of 2023 (Details of what that update will contain will be revealed at a later date)
This update introduces new decor, construction items and a new scare trap to use in your haunted house attractions as well as further bug fixes and quality of life updates. Here's a sneak peak at some of those new items and scare traps:
