Random Weapon Shops - These shops offer weapons for a lower price, but the weapon is only revealed once you buy it. Random Item Shops (1 of each type) - These shops are similar to the Random Weapon shops, but instead of only weapons they offer 1 random item of each type: a Weapon, an Ability, and a Charm.

Howdy, gunslingers. There’s a new patch in town. In our continuous efforts to improve West of Dead we’re happy to present Update 1.11.6.2. Featuring a variety of tweaks, improvements and squashed bugs. In case you missed it: Check out the Bone Orchard Update, which among other things introduced this strange fella. Also, please don’t hesitate to leave us a review on the store page to let us know what you think of the game! Adios. *tips hats and stoically rides off into the sunset* Update 1.11.6.2 Changelog Fixed a bug where “fog of war” on the minimap would return to already visited areas if the player resumed a run. The Bloat (The exploding creature) now gives more warning when aggro'd, so hopefully will be avoidable at the bottom of ladders. The Window Snipers (Turret Traps) in the Town have had some work done: A light has been added to make them more obvious. They can now be locked on…
- Meet Frank the Zombie! - 8 February 2021
Hey everyone, So, we have been busy updating the game with the Bone Orchard Update and we also have some other fun stuff happening. We created a cool marketing campaign with Pringles where we created the character Frank the zombie! He has been on a bit of journey, escaping the game live on a Twitch stream with UK streamer Leahviathan! And while Frank has loved being in the real world, he is getting ready to get back into the game - because you know, West of Dead is better than the real world... ;) Frank will become a permanent part of Purgatory from this Wednesday when he returns to the game. Anyways, if you are curious, this is how Frank escaped. Also, would you like to win a West of Dead t-shirt? We have 20 to give away and you can find out how to win one on Twitter!

- Wayfarin Update, Available Now! - 5 August 2020
Hey Outaws! Here comes another big one, we've been listening, watching and counting (through the magic of analytics) as you've all played, and have made a patch that focuses on Balance, Tuning and a few 'High Demand' features. v. 0.10.0 - Patch 3 - Wayfarin, Balance Improvements We've looked at the entire balance of West of Dead, from top to bottom, and have implemented a lot of changes to smooth out difficulty spikes and generally allow a more steady sense of progression. Overall Balance: • Enemy health scaling with level difficulty has been reduced, to make them feel less 'tanky' later on. • "Hard-Path" Levels (The Bayou, Canyon, Graveyard, War) have their enemy difficulty slightly reduced, but still higher than the "Easy-Path" Level Redesigns: • New Level Layouts - Some more maze-like, others more uniform, from now on, players will (in some levels) be able to better find the exit, or…
- v. 0.9.23 Patch - More Quick and More Dead - 29 July 2020
Thanks to our community of players, we've been able to pull the 'More Quick and More Dead' patch together, which addresses some high demand features and improvements such as key bindings for PC, cover movement and Charms balancing! We hope you enjoy it, and continue to enjoy West of Dead. Thanks for your feedback! Quality of life improvements We've focused on making the game more accessible, smoother and easier to control and to smooth off 'snags' that interrupt game flow: PC Only Customisable Controls! We've added Customisable controls for Keyboard and Mouse. Sticky Cover - We've looked at the difficulty that some people have had getting around corners of cover. This is now easier, and the cover is also generally a little more 'sticky'. If that sounds like it's going to be harder to exit cover in a hurry - we have replaced the dive out of cover with a new *slide* which can instantly be…
- Sure Shot Patch - 1 July 2020
v0.9.19.1 The Sure Shot update Quality of Life: Aiming with firearms and darkness! We have completely re-thought the aiming algorithm with the goal of allowing you to 'aim' into the dark when you want to. From now on, you will shoot at the target you are most aiming at, whether it is lit or in darkness. The difference between the two is that lit enemies have auto lock applied (highlight and aim assist), whereas enemies in the dark will have no auto lock applied whatsoever. The main difference is that lit enemies will no longer 'gobble up' your aim if you intend to shoot at a target in the shadows. Note, we have kept the ability aiming algorithm the same, so that we can get this change in early, rather than wait for that. This change was heavily inspired by your insightful feedback. Thank you! Fixes: Injustice can now be truly banished! The pillars in the injustice arena are now vulnerab…
- Patch Notes for v0.9.18 - 23 June 2020
v0.9.18" Major changes: - The player will no longer aim at enemies through walls - The player will no longer aim through the barricade when closed - Favours no longer have levels - these served no clear purpose - Adjusted sin cost of items. These were too expensive and meant that you had to do *lots* of runs before you could unlock many of the items. The amount of sin you can get at later levels has been reduced slightly, meaning that unsuccessful runs count more than before (in proportion). Minor tweaks: - Cover regen feels less nasty if it pushes you back. - Happens more suddenly - less time thinking you should use it when you cant. - Fewer rib cages lying around :wink: We hope you enjoy this first Quality of Life patch, more is to come! A big thanks to all our players for the incredible feedback and issue reporting.v0.9.18"
