Yotunz!
The seventh Early Access update is here to test your combat skills in the Infested Depths. Equip yourself with a new weapon, skill, mask, and new armor to fight hordes of new Mutant enemies. What are you waiting for, Yotun?
Check out the full changelog below.
New Mutation: Furious Stance
Any name that starts with “Furious” is going to spell trouble for somebody. Use this mutation to make your attacks even deadlier and generally become more powerful. The exact characteristics that get a boost will depend on the elemental type of the Furious Stance.
Without pain, without sacrifice, trolls would have nothing - Shaman Vordagg
New Symbiont: Switch Hammer (Toughness)
After using the Switch Hammer, we think you’ll agree that sometimes extreme blunt force trauma is the best way to settle an argument. When slicing, stabbing, and burning just doesn’t get the job done, put the Switch Hammer to work and see how quickly the problem solves itself.
My soul is like flesh rended by a machine, like a machine consumed by flesh - Gobbok
New NPC: Spawner
Located on the ground floor of the village, Spawner will allow you to spend your precious Veri on passive perks that will help you survive longer in the depths of Durnar.

New Enemy: Stroller
Don’t let the name fool you, there’s nothing casual or relaxed about this enemy from the deep forest. And while he may be a bit slow and lumbering, all he needs is for you to get within striking distance of his whip-like tongue to make you seriously reconsider your decision to take him on.
New Enemy: Parasyte
Part of Parasyte’s strategy seems to be distracting and confusing opponents with his bizarre anatomy but don’t fall into that trap. Instead, worry about the massive claw coming straight at your head at lightning speed and think about how you can break down his defense before he breaks through your skull.
New Enemy: Heaver
Distance attacks with flames might not be fair but Mother Nature doesn’t care what you think. Dodge Heaver’s red balls of pain and look for an opening to slash his legs a few times before rolling out again. Careful, though—he can cut you down at close distance too.
