Hey Gungeoneers,
First, the sad news; the Supply Drop Update as a whole needs a little more time to cook before we're ready for a full release, and with the upcoming holidays, this realistically means we won't be ready for launch until January.
While we're disappointed to report this, we also have some good news... the majority of the Supply Drop is ready to go, so we're releasing these portions on the public beta branch today. If you'd like to start playing with these right now, you can switch to the beta easily in Steam by right clicking Enter the Gungeon, going to Properties, opening the Betas tab, and choosing "beta_public" from the dropdown. Steam should automatically start downloading the beta version. If you are reading this message, it should be live!
Anyone who has been following the development of the Supply Drop Update closely knows that it has, sadly, been progressing more slowly than we would have liked or predicted. As always, we apologize for this and thank you for your enthusiasm and continued patience while we finish up the remaining work on the update. Specifically, while the update is nearly complete, a few things that are planned for the update require further testing and polish. Secondly, the update text is still being localized, and the current timeline sets its completion at early January. For this reason, the beta is in English only. You can play the update in any other language- but you will see the message “String Not Found” for any update content.
We really hate to have to delay the update further, so we are doing this beta as a way to get fans playing it as soon as possible. We really hope you enjoy it.
So... what's in the beta?!
Ever thought it was weird that the Mines only had 2 bosses? Us too! The Mine Flayer has emerged from the deep to torment your mind with his sinister bell.
*Well, Key Bullet Kin... you'll have to hunt them down before they escape if you want to collect their shiny key-shaped corpses!
This is probably our most requested feature. You can now save between floors and resume your run at a later time. Just speak with the red button located at all floor exits, tell him you'd like to save and hop into the cryochamber.
Looking for a challenge? Free Daisuke and you'll have access to the Challenge Mode run modifer, which provides random restrictions and modifications as you progress through the Gungeon. The deeper you go the more modifiers you'll have to contend with; we wish you luck!
Doug peddles exotic goods from around the galaxy; rescue him and gain access to his traveling emporium. Some of the best equipment in Gungeon can be purchased from him, roughly half of his inventory is available in the beta.
Explore some of the 100+ new rooms, unlock 20+ new guns/items, and challenge several new enemies.
(or what is NOT in the beta, but will be included in the full Supply Drop Update.)
The full Supply Drop release next month will include pasts for both secret characters, alternate Bullet/Robot costumes and an additional ~13 guns/items… along with a few secrets. Naturally, we will also continue to tweak, polish, and balance the beta content for the full release. Oh yeah, and other languages- including simplified Chinese!
You can freely switch to the beta and continue from your current save, and when the final version is released next month, you can switch back to the main branch and continue your progress. While we do not anticipate save issues, as with any beta we must advise that you make a backup of your saves before you switch to the beta branch! For reference, they are located here:

The Gungeon: Enter the Gungeon – a constantly evolving bullet hell fortress that elegantly blends meticulously hand-designed rooms within a procedurally-generated labyrinth bent on destroying all that enter its walls. But beware – the Gungeon responds to even the most modest victory against its sentries and traps by raising the stakes and the challenges found within!
The Cult of the Gundead: The Gungeon isn’t just traps and chasms – calm your nerves and steady your aim as you face down the gun-totting Cult of the Gundead. These disciples of the gun will stop at nothing to put down the heroes in their tracks and employ any tactics necessary to defend their temple.
The Gungeoneers: Choose between one of several unlikely heroes, each burdened by a deep regret and in search of a way to change their past, no matter the cost. Filled with equal parts courage and desperation, these adventurers won’t hesitate to dive across flaming walls, roll through a wall of bullets, or take cover behind whatever is around to make it to their goal alive!
The Guns: Discover and unlock scores of uniquely fantastic guns to annihilate all that oppose you in the Gungeon – each carrying their own unique tactics and ammunition. Unleash everything from the tried and true medley of missiles, lasers, and cannonballs to the bizarrely effective volley of rainbows, fish, foam darts, and bees! Yep, bees.
