Big Updates in 2026!

Iron Meat · published 28 Dec 2025, 11:39 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

In 2026, Iron Meat is looking forward to at least two major updates. I would like to briefly tell you about one of them today--an update that will introduce several new levels. To be precise, there will be a series of posts detailing this update because there's too much content for just one post.

WARNING! SPOILERS AHEAD!

The new levels will serve as a prequel, revealing events on the Moon during the escape of "Meat" and the beginning of mass infection. You'll even have the opportunity to visit some locations from the original game!

We'll play as Sasha—a specialist in chemical and biological warfare defense—whose mission will be to evacuate personnel from the station. Yes, Sasha isn't the only survivor on the Moon! Although "Meat" spreads rapidly, it has its limits and constraints, so many survivors remain after its attack—and they must be saved!

Yuri becomes the first victim, and it's already too late to help him. But others can still be helped!

In these new levels, you'll encounter not only new enemies but also old "friends." These levels will give you a fresh perspective on the events of the original campaign.

This was a brief introduction; more detailed information about each aspect of the update and the lore behind the game will follow in subsequent posts. I'm sure you'll find it interesting to learn, for example, how exactly the infection by "Meat" occurs and how to avoid it if possible.

The update will also address technical aspects of the project: we're fixing bugs that hinder smooth gameplay, especially controller issues (which are haunting my nightmares).

I wish everyone a happy New Year and Christmas!
