Hello Module Makers!
Tonight’s a big moment for us, our brand-new Modulus trailer just premiered in the PC Game Show, and we couldn’t be more stoked to have been featured again. Huge thanks to the PCGS team for inviting us back and giving Modulus another spotlight. Check out the new trailer below!
And now for the part many of you have been waiting for…
A Massive Demo Update is Now Live!
For the first time since April, the Modulus demo has been completely refreshed with new systems, new content, new visuals, and a smoother early-game experience. This update brings the demo in line with the game’s current direction and gives you a much clearer look at what Modulus is becoming ahead of next year’s full release.
Because so much has changed, older demo saves will not work with this version, but we promise the new experience is worth the fresh start. PLUS saves from the updated demo will transfer across to the full game when launched.
Let’s dive in!
