Good news everyone,

A new major update, Patch 2026.3.4.1.4 is now available.

  • Switched the game's realistic vegetation to stylized vegetation.
  • Added the new playable species, Megalania!
  • Improved the ambient sound managers and made a better audio experience for surround sound speaker setups.
  • Improved the playback and reliability of creature footsteps.
  • Removed some lower quality footstep sounds.
  • Added new claw attack sounds for some creatures.
  • Fixed some bugs.
  • Made some optimizations.
  • Other various changes and improvements.
  • Updated the Unity Engine version to 6.3.10f1.
