Hello everyone!
The next major Scum's Errand update is near release introducing the Roguelike Journey. As we worked on this update, we also felt that boss fights needed a significant overhaul, leading to the addition of two brand-new bosses and a completely redesigned arena built specifically for these encounters.
Anurix, the Lich King
Once the High Sorcerer of the Sunken City, Anurix commands the battlefield through necromancy. He raises skeletal servants to overwhelm players and won't hesitate to sacrifice his own minions to restore his strength. If you focus only on him, don't be surprised when his army grows out of control.
Hadrophagus, the Blind Hunter
A relentless predator driven by a demonic parasite that claimed his mummified corpse after death. Blind, but far from helpless, Hadrophagus hunts by sensing blood and life itself. He uses blood magic to trap his prey before closing the distance with brutal melee attacks.
Boss encounters now take place in a brand-new arena designed specifically for these fights.
Compared to the previous level, this arena is much more open, giving players more room to dodge, reposition, and fully engage with each boss's mechanics without constantly fighting the environment.
To celebrate, Scum's Errand will be 25% OFF on launch day. If you've been waiting to pick it up, this will be the best opportunity, as the game's price will increase after the update to reflect all the new content.
Everything we've showcased in our recent development articles—including the new roguelike progression, bosses, and other improvements—will be available on August 3rd.
See you on August 3rd!
