Three years ago, you spoke—and the Void listened. Devlog #18 unveils one of the two new characters coming with the full release. This is a very special one, as it was chosen by you, the community, in one of our Discord community events, as the most voted character to join the ranks of the Void Hunters… The Samurai!
Alongside this long-awaited Void Hunter, you will also gain access to ALL remaining Artifact Powers for all weapons and characters, and today we will show you a little glimpse of a couple new ones you can expect! Let’s dive in!
This one’s for YOU.
Back in 2022, hundreds of you voted to bring this disciplined warrior into our world—a tribute to the passion that shapes Soulstone Survivors. While it’s been a while since we last had one of these community events, the Samurai stands as a timeless testament to your voice. Sharp, swift, fiery and sometimes ghostly, he’s finally unsheathing his katanas!
As usual, The Samurai is also coming with 3 new character specific skills and 8 brand new weapon skills. His playstyle resolves around slicing, cutting, stabbing and sometimes cursing his enemies with a new negative effect, Condemned, which is consumed by critical strikes to drastically amplify the damage caused!
We have envisioned the Samurai as a character that is both very good with blades but also spiritual, maintaining a certain connection to the ghostly realms of the occult, being able to tap into the manifestation of his own rage spirit to fight for him. Check it out!

The release update will bring a ton of new content to the game, including all remaining Artifact Powers for all characters and weapons in the game! So today we wanted to show you a couple of cool new artifact powers you can expect to see soon.
First, a little glimpse at the Death Knight’s Dragonflight, calling in an ancient bone dragon to lay waste to enemies in a line, leaving a powerful damaging area in its wake:
The Engineer is also joining the party, with his new Plasma Sentry, which pours flame into nearby enemies causing massive damage and debuffing them with different effects:
Can you guess what the Artifact Powers will be for the other remaining characters??
The Samurai is more than a character—he’s a monument to your impact on this journey. Though community votes are paused, your feedback still guides us daily. The Samurai is cool and all but who do you think this other shadowy figure could be?…
There is still a lot we haven't talked about coming to the game, and if you are curious… you might want to follow the game to check out our devlog next week… we will show another little sneak peek of something pretty cool we have been working on for months! As always thank you for your amazing support and we hope you are excited as we are for the full release!
