Hi, friends!

Hotfix #10 is here. In this one, we fixed a few particularly noticeable oddities (like those soldiers in front of the Town Hall), made streamer mode a bit clearer, improved the Casebook UI — and patched up a number of quest and geometry issues. And yes… we fixed Georgiy’s mouth. He now has an excellent mouth.

Patch Notes:

(Finally!) The soldiers in front of the Town Hall that everyone kept screenshotting no longer stand knee-deep in the steps.
Added a prompt on first launch asking whether you want to enable or disable Streamer Mode (which hides nudity).
Slightly adjusted the quest reset tutorial.
Karminsky no longer disappears on Day 9 (if he’s already gone in your save, restart the day).
Kira no longer shows up on Day 10 if the hospital is closed.
Synced Daniil’s footstep audio in one of the endings.
Improved the Casebook’s usability, specifically:
- Added an option to hide unnecessary hints in the Casebook when you open diagnosis descriptions.
- Added strikethrough for symptoms in the diagnosis list.
- Removed the locking of a symptom group in the Casebook if you checked it under the microscope and it turned out to be healthy.
Map markers: near Maria (in the waking-up quest), and at the Stillwater for saving the bull after you’ve already saved said bull.
Slightly adjusted resetting for patient Petrel.
Fixed another hole at the Train Graveyard (you could fall in and get stuck).
FIXED GEORGIY’S MOUTH MATERIAL. HE NOW HAS AN EXCELLENT MOUTH.

Community25 Jun 2026Pain, Difficulty, Shabnak, and Other Topics: A Pathologic 3 UpdateHello everyone! This is Alexander Souslov, producer at Ice-Pick Lodge and game designer of Pathologic 3. The studio has been quiet for a while. We needed a moment to catch our breath. The team had no New Year holidays, and frankly, no vacations at all while working on the game's updates. But we weren't silent because we were lounging on a beach, eating watermelons and baursaks (if you've never…In-game event17 Mar 2026Update #6Hi, friends! Update #6 is out. This time we tuned several noticeable things at once: improved a bunch of Mind Palaces , made the interface more flexible (all the way up to toggling the HUD with a single button), added more menu sounds — and yes, we updated the door sound when leaving the Polyhedron ! On top of that, there’s a batch of logic, visual, and performance fixes, including improvements…In-game event2 Mar 2026Update #5Hi, friends! Update #5 is here. We continue to methodically knock the weirdness out of the game: broken decrees and busted quests, doors that shouldn’t be open, districts you suddenly can’t enter, and other adventures in system logic. And we’ve finally admitted the obvious: there’s nowhere to put the pistol and the Prototype, so they now honestly sit in their proper slots. Changes: · Glued the…
