About 18,000 of you follow this game on Steam, but only 4,800 of you follow Brigador Killers. This may explain why we infrequently get asked something along the lines of "Are you making another game?". Well good news: Stellar Jockeys is making another game and it's a direct sequel to this one.

[dynamiclink href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/903930/Brigador_Killers/"][/dynamiclink]

Technically this news broke all the way back in 2019, though due to the attention received from MandaloreGaming in 2020, Stellar Jockeys shifted to adding more content to Brigador: Up-Armored Edition. That's why you ended up with the Blood Anniversary Update and the Grave to the Rave Update. Afterwards, development returned to Brigador Killers mid-2022, though this post is not going to recount everything that's happened since then (you are welcome to read the back catalog of monthly news posts). Here are the broad strokes.

An alpha build of Brigador Killers is available on Itch.io

If you are the sort of person who understands the realities of video game development, knows how buggy games that are still in development can be and yet still wants to support a developer, then you can buy a copy of the alpha build on Itch.io. Please read this short article before doing so.

Purchasing a copy of the game on Itch will eventually grant you a Steam key when it releases on here - Itch even has the functionality for it.

The Itch build was last updated in March 2024 and is due an update soon. The current state of the game looks much closer to this recent development footage.

Please note the build is Windows-only for the time being, with Linux planned.

There's a second audiobook

It's titled Brigador Killers: Pilgrim and you can listen to the first half of it entirely for free on YouTube.

The book is a direct sequel to the events of the first book, and takes place between the Brigador and Brigador Killers games. Ryan Cooper once again voices Brad Buckmaster's writing. You can buy the full audiobook on Itch or the text version from the Stellar Jockeys merchandise store as an epub/pdf. Kindle and Audible variants are also available.

Makeup And Vanity Set has made a whole bunch of music

MAVS also returns for BK and Stellar Jockeys has uploaded a few songs already to YouTube that are in this playlist. This is the first track that was put out.

This is only a taste of what MAVS has made - at least two albums' worth of music has been composed for Brigador Killers.

As for Brigador: Up-Armored Edition...

Stellar Jockeys considers its first game to be feature complete. There is no intention to add any new additional content to a game that is now almost a decade old. That said, if Brigador Killers does very well, then this game may get a quality of life pass. Brigador is an old game, and nowadays it can act a little strange with current generation gamepads, or 4K ultrawide monitors, to say nothing about new operating systems deprecating things the game needs to run. Stellar Jockeys very much wants its games to be playable for the foreseeable future.

Anything else?

More Brigador miniatures are coming to the merch store. The 1/144 scale pewter minis have done tremendously well so five more packs will be joining the existing eleven model packs. Here's a sneak look at them already assembled and painted:
