Employees! We’ve got some super exciting news for you all. As some of you may have just seen in the NewGame+ Showcase, we’re launching our PvP Open Beta Weekend on Thursday 22 January, so you can all take part in some active and highly motivating conflict resolution. Check out our shiny new trailer:
If you’re reading this and you’re a content creator, you’ll be thrilled to know we’re also giving some select creators access 24 hours early on Wednesday 21 January to try out our new PvP mode and share with your audiences. If this sounds like your thing, please do contact us at [email protected] and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can!
How will PvP work, you ask? Well, good thing we’re here to tell you! Our PvP mode is called Free For All, or FFA for short. In FFA, 2-4 players will fight short rounds to be, ahem, the Last Man Sitting (roll credits!). Here is the twist: Each round is fought until only one player remains. Each losing player then gets to choose from a random selection of 5 permanent upgrades, becoming stronger and customizing their lineup while the winner gets nothing but pure bliss and honour. The player who is the first to 5 wins, is the overall winner!

What can I expect help test in this Public Beta? In the previous Open Beta you got to try out the minigun and katana. This time around we are also adding the long gun to the lineup which enables a host of new power-ups to be chosen. In addition to this slick new gun, we are also adding the Hackerman chair ability alongside the Kick Flip and Slam Dunk. Prepare to be quite literally spammed with popups by your opponent. AND to round things up we are enabling three new maps: Human Resources, Organize and High Horse in addition to Cafeteria, Freedom and Oasis!

How do I join the Public Beta? Once it goes live on the 22nd of January, a button on the Last Man Sitting store page will appear for you to join the beta! (Check out our social channels for updates on times!) We’re so excited to see what strategies you develop, what your favourite upgrades are and how you fare against your fellow colleagues and prove once and for all who in your group is the personality hire. Want to keep up with the latest news, community chat and fun? Make sure to follow us on all platforms: X, TikTok, Instagram, FB, BSky & Discord. See you in the office, Team Last Man Sitting
