🚨Infestation Update🚨

Infestation has spread to the vaults, rooms are infected, mutated enemies are crawling out of them, and a new boss is guarding weapon blueprints worth fighting for. The v1.3.0 Infestation Update is out now.

Watch the Infestation trailer:

Survive the Infestation

Infected rooms bring a new objective: shoot every Infestation Bulb to stop the spread before it overruns the ship. Two new infested enemies spawn from these rooms, and they don't always stay put; sometimes they breach containment and hunt you down elsewhere.

Face Zubica

A new boss takes flight with deadly spores, fast aerial strikes, and infected blobs. Beat her and claim the blueprints for the infected weapon.

New infected weapon

An experimental rifle with a rapid three-round burst. High-impact rounds infect whatever they hit, and the integrated scope plus digital ammo counter keep you sharp in the chaos.

Infection element

The new Infection element turns the infestation into your weapon. Infected enemies burst into spores that spread to everything nearby, chaining into more infections. It runs on the same three-tier system as the other elements, the rest you'll discover in the field.
