LURK Empusa Update is available now

Watch on YouTube

It's been a while - but over the last few months, I've been hard at work on a massive free content update for Lurk.

Today, it's finally here: The Empusa Update.

The biggest addition from this update is the new area to explore: The Crypt. Countless sarcophagi line the tomb where light does not reach - and now that the Eclipse has fouled the lands with its demonic influence, a powerful, horrific evil has awoken in its depths: The Wraith. This new area - and its ghostly inhabitant - are, in my opinion, the most terrifying parts of Lurk you can encounter now.

The Empusa update adds the following features:

  • New area to explore: The Mausoleum/Crypt

  • New unique monster: The Wraith

  • First person animations for arms and legs

  • New intro cinematic

  • Most buildings can be entered and explored now

  • Steam Deck Verified / Controller improvements

  • Broad graphical improvements

  • Lots of Quality of life improvements

  • Tons of bug fixes, balancing, and other additional content
