Hey everyone,

Gameplay
addedI know a lot of you have been excited about getting your hands on the new NPC content and I was working very hard the past few months to get things ready, but unfortunately it will take a bit more time to get the experience feeling right with the least amount of bugs and issues.
addedThings are coming along well though. New character customization options were added to help power the new NPC characters and the very old AI system was completely rebuilt from the ground up to allow for much more complex decision making logic for the various entities in the game. Creature behavior should be more improved, and you will be able to run into other survivors in the world with dynamic goals, handling their own survival, friendliness and willingness to trade and cooperate.
addedThank you for your continued patience and support. The game has evolved quite a bit over the last year with a ton of new features and content and I'm excited to make 2026 an even bigger year for The Last Plague with a proper 1.0 release.
addedHappy holidays and happy new year!

I wanted to follow up on the Q4 update release timeline. As we approach the end of the year I've had to make the tough decision to push the update further back into January given the remaining work and testing required.
