The studio promises free post-launch support focused on faster early pacing with deeper endgame challenges.

Overview

  • Evil Empire outlined two major updates for April and early May after publishing a Spring 2026 roadmap on February 16.
  • Flaming Horses is available now as a new tool that summons a charging herd and leaves a burning trail.
  • The April Breathless update targets a quicker first hour with tougher early biomes and adjusted boss difficulty, preceded by a public beta near the end of March.
  • New systems in Breathless include a Freeze element with a slingshot weapon, lock-in arena fights, and weapon/tool affixes, plus a higher difficulty option and new medallions.
  • The May Endgame update is planned to add Nyamtur risk-reward trials, a parkour mode, a Palace biome rework, and challenge modes such as Speed Run and Daily Awakening, with contents still subject to change.
