- Update on future language support - 30 May 2026
Hello! Here's an update on future language support. All of these are taking a little bit longer than initially expected, due to these not using the Latin alphabet (which requires some extra work on font support and some extra care in picking new fonts for these languages) and translators needing to spend some extra time on edits + keeping up with text changes in the recently released balance patch. Nonetheless these languages have been in the works and have been making steady progress, here's an update from the translators for each one currently in the works: Japanese公式日本語翻訳八割ほど終わっています！お楽しみに！RussianДорогие фанаты, русский перевод идёт полным ходом, большая часть текстов уже готова и находится на вычитке. Мы с командой разработчиков также активно работаем над локализацией шрифтов, чтобы гонять котиков в приключения было ещё и красиво. Надеемся порадовать вас переводом ближе к концу июня.…
- The first big Mewgenics update is great news for Mages, with a wealth of balance changes - 23 May 2026
It's been a long time in the oven, but Mewgenics update 1.1 is finally live. The cat-collecting strategy game has followed beautifully in the steps of its older sibling, The Binding of Isaac. It managed to win my heart despite me not particularly caring for its gross-out tendencies, offering a tightly designed blend of positional combat in the vein of Into The Breach and Tactical Breach Wizards. After carefully studying and testing potential changes, developers Tyler Glaiel and Edmund McMillen have just deployed their first big overhaul, filled with a wide range of class balancing and other adjustments.

- Mewgenics' biggest patch yet is on the way with a huge balance overhaul, changes to the breeding system, and 'Hitler's suicide can no longer miss', which is a relief - 29 April 2026
Mewgenics is easily my favourite game of 2026 so far—in fact, I gave it 92% in our review . I love its emergent storytelling, its chaotic build-crafting, and its incredible depth. What I wouldn't claim, however, is that it's perfectly balanced... Read more.

- Mewgenics' latest update makes one of its most unpredictable fights a bit fairer, and includes maybe the best patch note of all time: 'Fixed case where a non-binary cat with dwarfism would crash the game if playing in Brazilian Portuguese' - 18 March 2026
The stream of post-launch patches for Mewgenics has been pretty constant since its release last month. With a game this big and full of overlapping systems, unleashing it on the general public was always going to reveal an explosion of bugs and issues, and it seems like developers Edmund McMillen and Tyler Glaiel have been busy trying to catch them all...
