A major Lethal Company update has been released

The creator of the cooperative horror game about collectors of various junk on dangerous planets had been out of touch with the public for a long time, although his creation became a real hit shortly after its release. The last patch for Lethal Company was released in the fall of last year — and ever since then, Zeekerss has been toiling over the next game improvement. Now, finally, update v80 has been released, in which the heroes will not only face new dangers but also find themselves in transformed locations. Let's tell you all about it in detail.

The update is currently in test mode — to install it, you need to open the beta versions menu in the Steam client by right-clicking on the game's name. Then you'll be able to appreciate all the changes. First of all, this concerns the moon March — it has been completely reworked: the appearance and performance have been improved, and the fireflies have been moved. On the surface of this unwelcoming world, travelers will encounter previously unseen dangers. Parasitic plants can infect characters even when they are indoors — now you need to watch your step more carefully. Additionally, a land stingray may be lying below — it won't cause many problems, as it's a timid creature, but heroes risk slipping on its slime.

In the thickets, predators await the careless traveler — a puma and the returning fox-kidnapper. According to Zeekerss, he wasn't so much trying to add something new to his project as to fix errors, in order to focus on releasing content in the future rather than solving problems. Among the main changes, we note the display on the observer's screen of what teammates see, as well as an inventory upgrade — tools no longer take up space in it. The developer hasn't neglected the behavior of AI-controlled monsters either — they've become more agile and smarter.
