Hey everyone,
Just wanted to let you all now where we currently are with the gargantuan task of merging our projects together and bringing Zero Cal to the level we want it to be on.
First of all, sorry for the lagging updates regarding our progress concerning Zero Cal's next update - we wanted to make sure that what we promise now we can 100% deliver later on.
You might be aware that after Zero Cal's standalone release, we've started to dissect the game's code to pieces in order to merge the two projects together and bring all the goodies back to the OG version.
All our efforts, blood, sweat and tears are starting to yield tangible results - we now see the light at the end of the tunnel!
Due to the delicate nature of the process, we've decided to compile all the progress into a big steaming pile of a giga update - we're expecting it to be ready for release towards the end of fall, 2022.
What's gonna be in it you ask?
Well, where to start...
Besides all the optimization and under the hood changes, we're going to add:
- Melee weapons: a knife, a bayonet attachment, a machete, a crowbar, a baton, a baseball bat and an axe
- Cross-play PvP with plenty of maps
- UGC (mod) support for PvP maps
- Rebalanced and spiced up combat on all maps
These are only the most eye-candy additions but rest assured, there will be many more! There's a reason we're referring to it as a "giga update". ;)
Oh, one more thing: the PCVR-level graphics won't be affected.
That's it for this super-quick update. We're going to show you sneak peeks and provide you with consistent updates as we get closer to the giga update - watch this space!
Cheers,
- XREAL Games Team -
