- ⚠️ Important Notice About Future Updates 🇨🇺 - 7 March 2026
⚠️ IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM THE DEVELOPERSHello everyone. 👋We want to share an important and honest message with the community regarding the development of the game.As some of you may know, the project is being developed from Cuba 🇨🇺, and unfortunately the current situation in the country is making development more difficult than usual.Recently we have been experiencing very long electricity outages, sometimes lasting 10 to 12 hours or even more per day. ⚡Because of these power cuts, there are many moments during the day when we simply cannot work on the game, which directly affects the speed at which we can develop updates.For this reason, future updates may temporarily become less frequent.However, we want to reassure everyone that:📢 Development of the game will continue. 📢 We will keep sharing announcements and progress updates. 📢 Whenever possible, we will inform you about upcom…

- 🩸🌑 THE APOCALYPSE IS ABOUT TO GET DARKER 🌑🩸 - 6 March 2026
🩸🌑 A NEW DIRECTION FOR OUTBREAKWe want to share something important with the community.Over the past weeks we have been re-evaluating the direction of the game, thinking carefully about how to improve the experience, how to make the world feel more authentic, and most importantly how to make Outbreak stand out in a genre that already has many games.After many discussions, tests, and ideas, we made a clear decision:🩸 OUTBREAK WILL BECOME DARKER, MORE BRUTAL, AND MORE INTENSE.The apocalypse in many games often feels cinematic, heroic, or even stylized.But if something like this truly happened, the world would not be heroic.It would be:⚠️ Chaotic ⚠️ Violent ⚠️ Desperate ⚠️ Emotionally heavyAnd that is exactly the side we want to explore.We want players to feel the weight of a collapsed world, where every decision matters and survival is never guaranteed.☣️ A MORE RAW AND REALISTIC APOCA…
