Backrooms Society - 0.6.91Hello everyone! It has been 3 years since the early access launch of Backrooms Society. I want to thank all of you and celebrate the progress the game has made since its release back in 2023.

Chop them down and bring Midsummer offerings to the large Maypole in The Hub in exchange for one of six new anniversary and Midsummer-themed cosmetics. • Added new and improved match-burning effects.• Improved hiding spots in Level 2.6 Planned Expedition. Entities will no longer be able to see or hear players once they enter a hidey hole, making them less likely to remain outside the hiding spot for extended periods of time.

- Backrooms Society 0.6.81 - 20 January 2026
Backrooms Society - 0.6.81• Added an alternate crouch/slide key (Default key "C") - In case you prefer to keep sprint on "Hold" and crouch bound to "Ctrl" it can make sliding a bit difficult since you need to be sprinting to trigger a slide by crouching.• Fixed incorrect info prompts for the new options added in v0.6.8If you already had your crouch key changed to "C" you might have to adjust or reset your keybinds.
- Backrooms Society 0.6.8 - 19 January 2026

(Try to avoid switching items rapidly when playing at high latency, as there may still be other instances of this issue)• Fixed a crafting duplication exploit.• Removed jack-o’-lanterns from Metro level entrances.• Adjusted item description text bounds to prevent overlapping with longer text entries. P.S. The christmas event will stick around until the end of january.

That said, I’m still hard at work on the next update, and it’s getting closer to completion every day. Thank you all for your patience and the love you’ve shown for the game.
