Now's the time to get back into ShatterRush: Multiplayer Gauntlet Mode, a Full Movement Rework, Matchmaking - v0.9.8 is now live!

If you haven't tried the game in a while, now's the perfect time to jump in. We've really listened to your feedback, with nearly every aspect of the game modified since our Steam demo launch. I'm keen to know what you think!

Here's ALL 94 PATCH NOTES since we launched the Steam Demo 2 months ago:

v0.9.8 (4 Dec)

  • CosmeticLearn Menu addedPress Tab/Menu in the Gauntlet, which opens a menu filled with videos and info on how to learn ShatterRush's movement system.
  • Marked Mode added - this is a modifier that if a player gets too far ahead, they'll be marked for everyone in the match, but they also get a bonus for every elimination. This is designed to give newer players a better chance in multiplayer, but also provide extra challenge to top-tier players who are far ahead of the rest of the lobby.

  • CosmeticTutorialan actual tutorial has been added! You'll only see this if you uninstall and reinstall, but it's finally here...

v0.9.7.6 (30 Nov)

  • All operator weapons now have positional audio!

  • CosmeticWallruns are far less "sticky"you can now press an opposite direction to exit a wallrun, should make it feel alot nice to use!
  • Mimic reworked, now has fantastic lighting, jump pads and a bigger distance between each side. Should make it alot easier to traverse, and less motion-sick inducing.

  • AMR mag size dropped from 5->3. It is the most popular weapon in the game, and it is pretty unfair to fight against. This should make it nicer to use.

  • Run speed reduced from 950->925, and Wallrun Speed reduced from 1450->1400. Just slight adjustments so the game isn't too fast for new players.

  • Username scrambling added, useful for streamers and content creators!

v0.9.7.5 (28 Nov)

  • A global matchmaking system designed to get you into a game as fast as possible. You can also matchmake and run the gauntlet at the same time! This should make low population periods much more tolerable.

  • CosmeticBeginning audio overhaulall sounds will now modify their volume if they aren't visible, and most sounds are positional (working to apply this change to all sounds for the next patch).
  • Other FixesFixed slide issue that appears on controllers (thanks @Shiny for pointing this out at 1:28) https://youtu.be/LC-ByvDZ-KA?si=AxQcSYKQtbWu2W5q&t=88)
  • Fixed leaderboard fetching problem, you should now always have valid leaderboards in the Gauntlet Match info in the server browser should now be much more accurate
