Game update16 Jan 2025Showdown Update - HotfixGreetings Survivors! Before we left for the winter break, you may have seen us mention that we were looking into a few changes to the Showdown Update that would address some of the feedback we saw from the community after its release. This Hotfix is now available to our players on Steam, and will roll out for console players very soon. While the changes to Base Defense and the introduction of t…

Ever since we released Generation Zero almost six years ago, we’ve been working tirelessly to refine its successes and improve upon its shortcomings. We added new Machines, Bosses, repeatable missions, vehicles, and weapons. To make the world more detailed and even more engaging, we revamped hundreds of locations and reworked the mission flow. On top of all of this, we kept improving the perfor…

Greetings, Survivors! I’m writing this Resistance Report on a Thursday because I’ll be in Oslo tomorrow.

Let’s get right to it: August 2024 Update We’ve received tons of feedback about our last update, released only on Steam so far. The majority of players are seeing incre…
Greetings, Survivors! It is a pleasure to be back and writing the Resistance Report once again. You know I try my best to prioritize them, but sometimes things get hectic all of a sudden and I have to focus on other things. Who am I kidding, things are always hectic, but sometimes more so than others. These last few weeks in particular, though, our devs and I engaged in what is known as the Gre…
Greetings, Survivors! We've just released a hotfix for the August 2024 Update. It contains various crash fixes and solves two display issues relating to the Companion.
