Update 3.1.0 — Steam Achievements

Vertal Strike · published 23 Aug 2026, 16:52 UTC · build 24892805

All news Players around this date Read on Steam

Achievements

Five Steam achievements are live: First Deploy, Century (100 kills), Ten Thousand (10,000 score), Veteran (10 hours played) and Captain (top rank). Progress you already have counts — long-time players unlock theirs on the first login after updating.

Menu

The home screen now shows how many operators are online before you queue.
The deploy panel has been rebalanced — the DEPLOY button is properly sized and the dead space is gone.
The highlight sweep on primary buttons is actually visible now instead of a dark smudge.

Fixes

The PLAYTIME stat in Barracks under-reported by 60x, which also made the 10 HOURS DEPLOYED milestone unreachable. Both are fixed.

Privacy

There is now a proper privacy policy at vertalstrike.com/privacy, linked from Settings and the store page.
