- The Duck Attack event is now live! - 1 April 2026
The ducks have had enough... Armed, organized, and absolutely done with being the prey — they've turned the tables! Expect razor-sharp maneuvers at insane speeds, coordinated formations, and a level of tactical sophistication that, frankly, we did not see coming. You'll face three types of duck soldiers, each with their own unique combat style and weapons. The sound design alone will make you question your life choices. And at the end of it all — the General Shoveler is waiting. To start the event, head to the hunter's cabin in the spring season "Maliye Karasi" and interact with the poster on the wall. Defeat the General and you'll unlock an exclusive camo outfit designed for this event — available only while the event runs, so don't sleep on it. Think that was too easy? If you somehow manage to beat the General at night, there's a pair of boots with the Duck Alliance emblem waiting for…

- Patch 1.0.1.393.1 Now Live! - 28 February 2026
Added New Rare Bird A new rare bird species has been introduced to the fall season at the “Maliye Karasi” hunting grounds.

Weapon Realism Semi-automatic shotguns now feature a malfunction mechanic: when using old ammunition, spent shells may fail to extract and become stuck in the extractor. Interface & Settings Added background music volume control in the main menu. Added Turkish and Chinese language support. Bug Fixes Fixed localization issues.

- Realistic Ballistics: The Move to a Joule-Based System - 13 February 2026
The upcoming patch will include several bug fixes and a transition to a joule-based system for damage calculation. ❓ What's wrong with the old system?The old damage system used pellet velocity and diameter to estimate damage. While this simplified our calculations, it wasn't entirely accurate in assessing the degree of damage and could count serious damage based on the sheer number of pellets, even at long distances.⚖️ What's the difference?The new system is based on the projectile's velocity and mass. This allows it to accurately calculate the momentum and energy of the impact, making it easier to correlate this data with real-world ballistics.🎯 Here's data from a test shot at 25 meters:#3 shot — 258 m/s — 8.47 J#5 shot — 239 m/s — 4.46 J📊 The result: with a relatively small difference in velocity, we get almost a twofold difference in impact energy.💡 What's the advantage of using j…

- FAQ about hunting in the game - 20 January 2026
Q: Are there any ducks in the game? I haven't seen a single one.Searching for ducks can be challenging. We built BULT with a focus on realism to capture the atmosphere of real hunting. If you don't see them, you likely need to adjust your tactics.Action plan for your first harvest:Time: Dawn or Dusk - peak bird activity.Wind: Pay attention to the wind when choosing your hunt day. Hunt into the wind (wind blowing towards your face).Stay still and quiet near water: Find cover and remain in place. Use your binoculars (B). Ducks frequently come to water bodies to rest.Listen: Play with headphones. The first sign of a duck is often its quack or the sound of wings.Q: Ducks fly away before I even see them.This means the ducks have detected you. Thanks to the game's AI, birds possess keen hearing and sight.What to do:Use camouflage: Wear camo clothing suited to the selected season. Stay in cove…

- Game developers anout the game - 6 October 2025
In the fourth quarter of this year BULT will be released on Steam. The game's developers Evgeniy Pashkov and Vladislav Petrov shared how they decided to make a game about hunting in Yakutia, what sets their game apart from other similar simulators, and what makes BULT unique How did you come up with the idea to create and release a hunting game?We were sitting by a campfire after an unsuccessful day of hunting, talking, and jokingly said, "Let's make our own simulator and see how ducks behave and why they won't land on a certain lake." Over many hunting trips, we formed our own vision for such a simulator. We wanted, first and foremost, to make it the way we saw it, so that during the winter off-season, we could enjoy playing it ourselves.This idea eventually evolved first into a prototype and then into a full-fledged game. Although the game was in a pre-alpha stage when we announced it…

We want to thank you deeply for your interest in our project! Every comment and every wishlist means the world to us — your support inspires us to keep moving forward. For a small team like ours, this is especially importantWe’ve named the game Bult. And you might already be wondering: what does it mean? Bult \ is a word from the Yakut language, and it translates as “Hunt”We come from the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) — a region in the very heart of Siberia, where taiga and tundra stretch for thousands of kilometers, where countless rivers and lakes lie, and where hunting is an inseparable part of tradition. For us, this word is more than just a name — it’s a part of our culture and our lifeThis is where we grew up and where we live today. It is also where we find our inspiration for creating this game — recording the sounds of nature and going on expeditions to capture the atmosphere of…
