Hey Atirans, how's your summer?Thank you for checking out the game and new Weapons Update, whether you're a new or returning player.It's time for most of us Swedes to head out on July vacation, so it will be a little quieter for a month now.While we're away, we wanted to leave this post for y'all with a proper peek behind the scenes on what the plan is for rest of 2026.How did it go launching the Weapons Update?While there were some initial speedbumps, the majority of players seem to agree that this is a huge W update, making the game feel better than ever. It feels fresh for returning players, and new players are hyped for crazy weapons and more ships. The move toward more permanent loot, modules, and weapon progression seems to have landed well overall, and it’s clearly the direction many of you were hoping for.The Module and Blueprint system is the biggest thing we've added, and is s…
- Update Hotfix 9 - v0.7.15.11 - 9 July 2026
July 9, 2026 Improvements Boarding Blitz damage increased Bug Fixes Fixed an issue where loot that rolled a high rarity could land on an item that only exists at low rarity, downgrading the drop to standard. This caused far more standard items than intended at higher challenge ratings, you should now see fewer standard drops and more items at their intended rarity. Fixed Ship Minigun spinning animation playing when not firing Fixed Boarding Blitz explosion not centered on the target ship Fixed med-stim and other stackable consumables so they stack correctly when picked up Single destination missions now give rewards in line with Salvage missions
- Update Hotfix 8 - v0.7.15.10 - 9 July 2026

The status effect now lasts longer (4 → 8 seconds) and activation chances have been significantly improved across the board, encouraging stack buildup. Damage has been decreased per stack on all Corrosion Modules. We fixed a visual issue where the reported damage of corrosion modules was half of what they actually did. Shotgun Center Pellet: Shotgun weapons now always fire one pellet directly at the center of your aim for more consistent and satisfying feedback. Additional bullets: Added the amount of damage reduction they caused into the description. Previously this was hidden information.

- Weapons Update Hotfix 6 - Reducing Difficulty and Deadzone Settings - v0.7.15.8 - 3 July 2026
Weapons Update Hotfix 6 - Reducing Difficulty and Deadzone Settings - v0.7.15.8Over the week since we launched the Weapons Update, we have been monitoring which modules and status effects may be too powerful or too weak, and one thing that stood out is that the Corrosion status effect is vastly more powerful than we originally intended. For that reason we are bringing it in line with the other effects, at the same time as we are buffing some of the weaked effects and the base weapon damage of on foot weapons. Deadzone settings for controllers have been added, we know many players have been waiting for this.Thank you for leaving your feedback on combat difficulty after the Weapons update dropped, we will continue to monitor but we hope this improves your experience during objectives that spawn waves of ground enemies.For those who feel Ingots should be refunded when an older, already upg…
