Content Update 3 is Now Live for Everyone!

A few days back, we launched a surprise Content Update #3 into public beta testing for you to try out and the results have been promising so far! That means there's no reason to wait any longer and we're pushing the update to the main branch now as well.

We'd like to thank everyone who participated in the beta testing, your feedback and support have been invaluable!

The whole Change Log can be found below this article - the only difference compared to the previous article is that we have corrected additional audio issues.

And if you have not seen the trailer that we've released on the occasion of releasing the update, it's time do so now:

It's also important to say that we're getting closer and closer to the full launch! It may come sooner than you think - we will have more info for you in the near future, make sure you wishlist and follow the game here on Steam so you don't miss it!

If you have any questions regarding HYPERVIOLENT, don't hesitate to ask them here on Steam or on the Fulqrum Publishing's Discord server where you can ask the lead developer, Daniel, directly.
