🧟 Major Update Live – New Map, Performance Boost, Tesla Tower & More
Outlaws,
this update is a big one.
With the latest update for Dreadmark Outlaws, we’re not only adding new content, but also laying the technical foundation for what’s coming next.
🌄 New Map – A New Battlefield Awaits
A brand-new map is now available.
Explore a fresh environment filled with atmosphere, new routes, and tactical opportunities. Whether you prefer solo, co-op, or PvP — this map will challenge you in new ways.
⚙️ Performance Overhaul – Smoother Than Ever
We’ve made major performance improvements across all maps:
Optimized GameThread
Reduced draw calls and CPU load
Improved frame pacing stability
Optimizations for lower-end systems & Steam Deck
In addition, we’ve now implemented a Screen Space option.
👉 If you experience performance issues with Lumen, you can switch to Screen Space and still maintain solid visual quality — with significantly better performance.
And we’re not stopping here — performance will remain a core focus going forward.
🧟 New Zombies – The Threat Grows
The undead are evolving.
New zombie variants are now part of the game — each with unique behavior and increased danger. Stay alert… or get overwhelmed.
⚡ New Tesla Tower (Tower Defense Mode)
A new defensive option is now available:
Tesla Tower
Deals electric damage
Especially effective against fast enemies
Adds new tactical options to your defense
Perfect for holding chokepoints when things get intense.
💥 Preparing for the Upcoming Destruction Update
This update also includes important technical improvements under the hood.
These changes lay the foundation for our upcoming Destruction Update, which will bring significantly more chaos to the battlefield.
🔫 The Frontier Keeps Evolving
This update pushes Dreadmark Outlaws forward in a big way — both in gameplay and technical quality.
We will continue improving performance, adding new content, and preparing bigger features.
