Elites Unleashed Update

Elite enemies, more loot and updated engine!

The Wasteland Just Turned Deadlier

We’ve got a fresh update for you – Elites Unleashed! 🥳 While Act II still needs a bit more time in the oven, we didn’t want to leave you empty-handed.

This update brings one of the most requested features straight from our community poll: elite enemies and more loot! It was the second most upvoted feature, and now it’s finally here for you to take on.

Elite Enemies & More Loot

Most of you have probably wrapped up Act I by now, leaving the wasteland a little too quiet while waiting for Act II. Well, that calm is finally over… get ready for elite enemies!

Elites spawn just like regular enemies, but you’ll recognize them by their red star icon hovering above. Don’t underestimate them, auto-resolve won’t work here, and you’ll need to bring plenty of defense cards to survive their heavy attacks.

Of course, the danger comes with rewards. Elites carry exclusive loot, including unique items you won’t find anywhere else. Some are dropped directly by elites, while others wait inside the new elite cubes, glowing with a distinct border. Gear up, claim your prizes, and prove yourself as the hero the wasteland fears once more.

Jamaal

Whispers in the wasteland speak of a new arrival at the Mind Metropolis Tavern. He’s no ordinary drifter and has a keen interest in Elite Tokens. If you’ve managed to get your hands on any, he’s more than willing to trade them for a generous pile of coins… and he hints there may be something far more valuable in store down the line.

Updated Engine, New Skins & More Fixes

We’ve prepared another special thank-you gift for all our early access supporters: Code: augift01

(The code can be redeemed until August 31)

Redeem it, enjoy, and know that your support keeps this apocalypse alive. ❤️

But that’s not all, this update brings more than just new content. We’ve upgraded the game engine for better stability, added fresh main menu skins each with their own unique sound loop, and fixed a few more remaining bugs (including The Man Job side quest). Step back in, explore what’s new, and keep surviving.

Act II Progress

Our new Shelter system is nearly ready! 🛠️

We’ve recently finished integrating the shop and upgrade mechanics, giving you the ability to push your cubes further – improving production efficiency, boosting stats, and making your underground base stronger.

We’re taking a little extra time to polish everything so it launches in a stable, bug-free state.

Right now, our focus is on the Communicator, a tool you can access anytime to keep tabs on your shelter while you’re away. From checking on production and scavenging expeditions, to spotting threats before they hit your walls – it’ll keep you connected

Once that’s done, we’ll dive into the final Act II quests. The last step before we’re ready to launch Act II!

Stay tuned for more updates, and thanks for being part of this journey. 🙏

We hope you enjoy the Elites Unleashed update! 😇

If we haven’t responded to your feedback yet, please bear with us a little longer. Thank you for your patience 🤍
