Hello everyone!
The Unto the Breach update is now almost here, so let’s take one last look at what’s coming.
PvP overhaul
The PvP mode in Barotrauma has been given a complete overhaul:
- Two new mission types: Outpost Deathmatch and King of the Hull.
- Both teams can freely choose which sub they wish to do battle on.
- Use the new Perk Points to pick submarine upgrades, better weaponry, talents or other benefits to help your crew in the fight. Perk Points are also available in Mission Mode.
- New items to help you breach and board the enemy vessel: Harpoon ammunition for turrets, the Boarding Pod and the Timed Detonator.
- Multiple options to customize the PvP gameplay to your liking, and various improvements throughout.
Alien ruin improvements
- New modules, traps, and puzzles.
- Rebalanced gene splicing system.
- New craftable dementonite items.
- New events to encourage exploration and uncover the mysteries of the ancients.
Three new husks
Unto the Breach introduces three brand new, high-danger husk enemies: the Exosuit Husk, Husk Prowler and Husk Chimera. Stay sharp and shoot fast!
And more
The update adds a total of 36 new outpost modules – be sure to take a good look around next time you dock to find more layout variation. Most of the new module variants were submitted by “NotWendy”, a long-time player. Big thanks! There are also a couple of entirely new module types, and a few new events.
Finally, the update includes a long list of bugfixes, improvements and optimizations. Read more about the Unto the Breach update now on our blog, and be ready for the release next week!
