📡 New Transmission from the Headquarters
ERA management message:
Pioneers,
🚀 Update Incoming – Release on November 7th!
We’re excited to announce that on November 7th, 2025, we’ll be releasing an update for Occupy Mars!
This is one of the most important milestones in the game’s development – especially for the co-op mode, which has been our main focus in recent months.
🔧 What’s New
🧑🚀 Co-op Mode:
numerous stability and synchronization fixes,
new content – additional buildings and technologies available in co-op,
new features, including:
an in-game chat,
private lobbies and improved friend joining system.
This update takes co-op gameplay to a whole new level, making teamwork and base building on Mars more enjoyable than ever before. However, some buildings and vehicles are still missing in this co-op update, we will add them as soon as they are ready.
🧍 Single Player Improvements
We haven’t forgotten about solo pioneers! 👩🚀
While reworking the co-op systems, we also introduced several improvements and new features for the single-player experience (some of them are available also in coop):
ability to choose which blueprints to unlock when progressing through the tech tree,
new driving model for small vehicles (including mid-air control),
new technologies and resource containers,
and a long list of smaller, but highly requested quality-of-life improvements.
❤️ Thank You
We know it took some time — but we made it and co-op is finally going to the default Steam branch!
This update wouldn’t have been possible without our amazing community: all the players who helped us test the co-op mode, reported issues, and shared their feedback.
We truly appreciate your patience, dedication, and support.
Your contribution has been invaluable in shaping the future of Occupy Mars. 🙏
🪐 What’s Next
After this release, we’ll be heading toward our final major milestone – delivering the remaining promised content and preparing the game for full release.
Remember to visit our social media, DISCORD and Steam Community
Keep your fingers crossed, and see you on Mars!
Stay tuned, Colonists!
