- Medic: Pacific War 0.2.3 - Localization and Lifeline Update - 11 September 2026
Hello, Medics! We've been working hard for the past few weeks to address the most common issues and requests from the community. In addition to fixes and changes, we also have some brand-new content for you. Localization and Lifeline Mission Brief LocalizationWe’re finally able to share a preliminary localization for a few more languages with you. The translations cover dialogs, the UI, collectibles, and the Field Guide in every game mode. 🛑 Please keep in mind that the localization is very much a work in progress, and some languages still require a lot of improvement and may contain placeholder content. Their current versions do not represent the final quality we’re aiming for in the full version of the game. At this point, our priority is to ensure that players from more regions can enjoy the game in some form, even if it’s not perfect. As of this update, Medic: Pacific War is availa…
- Gamescom Recap - 3 September 2026
Hello, Medics! Our team has reached many milestones this year: the release of Medic: Pacific War, major overhauls, updates, and now, to add to the list, our first showcase at Gamescom! While our team couldn't be there in person this year, we worked with our partners, Infernozilla and our publisher, IZilla Games, to get Medic: Pacific War onto the show floor. In preparation, we created the demo build. The build allowed players to play Lifeline mode. This is an intensifying mode where you are required to heal as many soldiers as you can on the battlefield. Players could also use the progression system and challenge points to unlock permanent perks. This mode also has modifiers and level-up that enable the player to take certain advantages within the mission. We've been hearing feedback from Gamescom and are excited to implement it in future updates. With some luck, we hope to make it to s…

- 0.2 Voice Over Update Is Here! - 10 July 2026
Hello Medics! We are over the moon to announce that we have reached the first stop on our roadmap! The 0.2 Voice Over Update (Previously the Challenges Update) is here! Update now for new voice lines, challenges, collectables, visual changes, and fixes. For the full list of changes, take a look below! ⬇️🔊 0.2 Voice Over Update Intel❤️🩹New and Updated Voice Acting We’ve added or re-recorded about 100 lines of dialogue (including Mayers’). This applies to a large portion of the voice acting in the Pearl Harbor campaign chapter, as well as background dialogue on every map and in every mode. The battlefields now convey more pain, tragedy, and despair - without any contrived heroism. This is just the first part of our efforts to get rid of placeholder audio content and overall improve the voice acting in Medic: Pacific War.

- [Devlog] Audio Rework - 7 July 2026
We heard the community and our team are over the moon to finally reveal: The first part of the dialogue rework is done and will be released in the 0.2 update! This rework covers Pearl Harbor and the vast majority of the random voice lines heard on every map and in every game mode. We recorded over 100 new and reworked lines of dialogue with professional voice actors. AI was NOT used at ANY point during the entire process. These one-time dialogues now respond more to what's happening on the battlefield; they aren't completely random. Get a preview of them and enjoy the 3+ minute preview of the reworked audio below.In addition to updating the voice lines, we've introduced new locations and situations where you'll hear them. The battlefields are now much livelier and more immersive. We focused on what’s best about Medic: intensifying the sense of being part of a brutal, overwhelming, and h…
