Whoah! Serious Sam is 18 years old


Serious Sam is 18 years old today. It was on March 21st, 2001 that Serious Sam: The First Encounter hit the shelves. Quite literally, as digital distribution was still a distant future back then. We were young, super passionate and, after a successful tech test launched in the summer of 2000, confident that Serious Sam would resonate well with the gaming community. Turns out, we were right. Serious Sam: The First Encounter caused quite a stir in the gaming community, won dozens of awards (including Gamespot's Game of the Year) and laid the foundation of everything Croteam is today. Fast forward 18 years later and Serious Sam got numerous sequels, spin-offs and remasters on most platforms. Hell, we even sent Sam to virtual reality and as with everything else - had tons of fun doing so. Even though he's 18 years old (and legally allowed to buy a beer here in Croatia, finally), Sam's still going strong and we can't wait to take you on another journey of chaos and mayhem with Serious Sam 4. Until then, we'll raise a glass (of aforementioned beer) in Sam's name and celebrate all of you for being Seriously awesome. Whether you've been demolishing hordes of aliens since day one or just joined our community we thank you for supporting us from the bottom of our hearts!
BOOM GOES THE ALIEN!

Croteam's CCO, Davor Hunski, recaps Early Access

After almost 11 months spent in solitude and hard work, The Last Hope's Lead Designer finally emerged from his office. We asked him how does he feel about the game today and he did what he does best - he told us a story. Everything was recorded: "'It was love at first sight' Hunski says, describing the first time he tried on a VR headset. 'I knew I wanted to make a VR game right there and then. Of course, the rest of the team needed convincing and that wasnt a small task.'"

We hate to bother you with things like this while you're working hard to make the universe a safer place, but the new update is out with just a couple of bug fixes that should make your battle against Mental's horde a little more comfortable. Here are the changes:

  • Fixed occasional server listing issue.
  • Fixed issue of the missing last skill point after deleting profile.
If you experience serious issues, you may switch to "previousversion" branch. Here's how: - locate the game in the Steam's "Library" panel - right click and invoke "Properties" - select the "Betas" tab - choose "previousversion" Back to your regularly scheduled pew-pew!

Serious Sam VR: The Last Hope is out now!


Eleven months after entering the Early Access phase, SSVR: The Last Hope is now available as a full release, and it's even better, badder and more epic than we ever imagined! Thanks to the huge support of the gaming community our VR baby duckling grew to be a beautiful, giant, armed-to-the teeth swan with flaming eyes, and we can't wait for everyone to jump in the final version. We also couldn't have done it with your support and feedback – thank you for being the best community and fans any developer could wish for! With today's epic final update The Last Hope introduces randomly generated gameplay, available on five existing and three new levels. This new gameplay option is split to three different modes – Arena, Endless Wave and Daily Challenge.

  • Arena​ ​– Allows players to enjoy endless variety thanks to randomly generated waves of enemies that ensure every playthrough is completely different. Players are challenged with 8 arenas consisting of 4 waves, each playable on 20 difficulties. Beating an arena difficulty awards a weapon upgrade icon.
  • Endless​ ​Wave​ ​–​ ​In this mode players will face an endless wave of enemies, trying to stay alive as long as possible, and get bragging rights over their peers via global leaderboards.
  • Daily​ ​Challenge​ ​–​ ​Endless wave on the arena map of the day, where each day a new set of enemies is served so that everyone faces exactly the same challenge and competes against the rest of the world.
Thanks to the co-op update Sam got a chance to call for help and play through any level with a partner, and with the update 1.0 players will be able to play with either Serious Sam or Serious Sammy. Here's the full changelog. Read it carefully. Or fire up the game and start having fun. Up to you really. ● Added leaderboards for all 3 arena modes. Who can survive Arena the longest? ● Tired of waiting for someone to join your co-op game? Good news! You can now play alone while you wait for someone to join. When your partner joins current wave will restart and you'll be able to play together as normal. Note that for now, even though special co-op difficulty setting is disabled while you're practicing alone, playing alone will default to hard on all difficulty settings other than tourist, which will default to Normal. ● Server search for co-op should now be more efficient at finding available servers. ● Hub now features tooltips that explain what's what. ● Implemented requested interface upgrades. ● Changed parts of logic of the random generation algorithm. ● Added arena score when 4th wave is completed. ● Healing in tourist mode now works correctly. ● Random gameplay now also randomizes music. ● Power-up sliders are better stacked now and can't overlap any more. ● Server list now shows rotating planets. ● Added credits.

Get ready to get Serious - The Skills and Power-Ups update is LIVE!


tl;dr Go and annihilate alien scum using the new Skills and Power-Ups system.


Hello friends and VR lovers. After Arcadia that pushed Serious Sam VR: The Last Hope to the verge of being finished, it's finally time for Croteam VR to show you the great Skills and Power-Ups system that we have been working on since day one. For the first time in series history Sam is not limited by his weapon handling skills and is able to annihilate even bigger alien armies thanks to the all new Skills and Power-Ups update. With this update general Stone gains access to a skill tree that allows him to unlock passive and active abilities which players can buy alongside weapons and ammo in the shop. Skill points are unlocked by completing planets. Higher difficulty levels bring even more points that players can use to set up their skill inventory to better match their play style. Lay waste on your enemies with tactical orbital lasers and plasma cannons, slow down time, create holographic decoys, release swarms of flying quadcopters, unleash an army of spiders, place minigun turret defenses or simply create giant explosions! The Skills and Power-Ups update includes options to improve and upgrade weapons by finishing perfect runs. Players can gain one weapon upgrade per difficulty per planet, and unlock even more by playing future content that is yet to come. What are you waiting for? Jump in and play!

Unlock weapon upgrades by completing perfect runs (one per difficulty per planet). Find a few more in the skill tree. Inverse kinematics! Various minor visual and gameplay fixes, lots of stability fixes and optimizations. If you experience serious issues (no pun intended), you may switch to "previousversion" branch.

Arcadia Update is now available!


Arcadia planet is now available for all Serious Sam VR: The Last Hope owners on Steam. This new update brings us another step closer to our ultimate goal, which is the full release of the game on Steam. We still have a lot of cool stuff in store for The Last Hope, but more on that later. With the Arcadia Update landing on Early Access, SSVR: The Last Hope continues its journey towards full release on Steam. This time Sam “Serious” Stone will visit Arcadia Minor, and its four different locations – Sea Breeze, Meadow of Death, The Lost Valley and The Final Breath – equal parts green and lush as they are gray and desolate. As is tradition, Sam has got some new toys like the devastating cannon that will help him annihilate all comers. On Arcadia Minor Sam will face four new enemies, and a huge Earth Giant boss which looks to crush all that stand before him. Do you have what it takes to stop this colossal beast? Along with the aforementioned fresh new content, the Arcadia Update offers the usual amount of adjustments, tweaks and improvements, all based on community feedback. The most important one is the reworked save system which now allows you to continue a wave where you left-off in a previous session. That means you no longer need to go through a planet in a single sitting. Hooray! You can check out the full changelog here: http://steamcommunity.com/app/465240/discussions/0/1291817837639442603/

Arcadia Update release date revealed


tl;dr – Arcadia update is scheduled for release in the first week of June 2017.


As you all probably know, the Croteam VR team has been hard at work on the big Arcadia update for Serious Sam VR: The Last Hope. This new update is all but done, and while there is some polishing left to do, we’re so confident that we can officially announce the release window which will be the first week of June – real soon now. Arcadia is equally green and lush as it is gray and desolate. It hides a danger unlike any other that you’ve seen before, so Sam has got to use every single one of his big guns to battle against tons of enemies – five of them new! Of course, Arcadia will be released with full co-op support, because blasting alien scum to bits is always more rewarding with friends. What’s that? Will Arcadia be the final update to TLH, you ask? Why no, no it won’t. We’ve got some cool new surprises in store for you, but you’ll have to wait for more info on that. :) In the meantime, how about a guessing game? Which new weapon will help Mr. Stone in his Arcadia adventures? Which one would you like to see in all it’s VR glory?

Arcadia Update is coming soon!


Coordinates have been set and BC Saratoga is now en route to planet Arcadia. ETA – soon! (Gameplay is shaping up real nice and we'll have more details to share next week.)

Valtos Update is now available!


Hi everyone, we have some great news to share today! Croteam VR has just released another huge update to Serious Sam VR: The Last Hope that sends you to a brand new planet infested by those pesky aliens that need to be blown to bits. The update features a new planet – Valtos – featuring four different locations/maps including

  • The Swamp,
  • Ancient Breeze,
  • The Old Forest and
  • Green Dream
Also featured in the Valtos Update are six different enemies including Kalopsy, Siren, Swamp Monster, Air Trooper, Technopolyp and Air Sniper Trooper. After dealing with them Sam will have to fight toe to toe with the Swamp Hive boss, as scary as it is slimy. To help him in his mission, General Stone's arsenal got even deadlier with new additions including a bow with piercing/explosive arrows and the deadly Devastator. Valtos Update also includes many different tweaks, fixes and optimizations such as vastly improved precision for the default sword projectile casting mode and improved shield energy display. Full change log is available on Steam Discussion Forums, where you can always get in touch with us to let us know your ideas. HF and thank you for supporting this Early Access title and Croteam VR!

Serious Wednesday update

Good news everybody! We’re announcing quite a few things today so it might be a good idea to grab a cup of coffee while you’re reading this. Before we get started, there is a slightly longer version of this post if you're interested in how and why we did things in VR. http://www.croteam.com/serious-wednesday-update/ TL; DR - Thank you for being awesome!

  • Serious Sam VR: The Last Hope “Shanti” update is now finished and will become available right after internal testing. The update will include the new planet (Shanti), new weapons (one melee and one long ranged weapon), new feature (Sam’s personal shield) and a very scary new boss. Boo!
  • Yes, there will be SSVR: The Second Encounter and Serious Sam 3 VR: BFE!
  • Yes, there will be The Talos Principle VR!
  • Yes, Serious Sam 4 is still happening and our core team remains hard at work on this, while two much smaller VR teams will continue to grow and work on more VR projects.
  • No, we haven’t forgotten our “flat” games. We’re announcing Serious Sam Fusion 2017, a FREE update for all owners of Serious Sam games, both flat and VR versions. This update will be rolled out gradually, starting with The First Encounter, and then The Second Encounter and Serious Sam 3: BFE.
  • Serious Sam Fusion 2017 update will bring a common workshop for cross-game mods support, as well as enable multiplayer between “flat” and VR versions of games, among other things. So, if you have Serious Sam VR: The First Encounter and your friend has The First Encounter HD, you can connect and play coop or versus with one another – using Fusion 2017.
Here’s the complete list of Serious Fusion 2017 update features that will become available in ALL of the games, for free:
  • All games now support SteamOS/Linux/OSX!
  • Split-screen!
  • 64bit executables
  • Support for Vulkan API (DirectX9 is now being removed; so long and thanks for all the bugs)
  • Multithreaded rendering
  • The new “lightweight” savegame system; savegames are now saved much faster, are very small and stored in the Steam cloud, and savegames still work even if a level is changed in a patch, or if a mod is updated
  • Full support for all controllers including Steam controller, PS4 gamepads, all older DInput joysticks
  • Proper multimonitor support
  • Borderless window support
  • Customizable sound outputs
  • Proper 3D audio using a proprietary sound-mixer (the same approach as used in the old Classics games)
  • Improved physics engine with better handling of character movement
  • Texture streaming in all games

Coop is coming (and more cool stuff)!

Good news, everybody! Cooperative game mode is coming to Serious Sam VR: The Last Hope! When we started this adventure together, we promised to listen to your feedback and requests. And out of many requests, this one stood out: bring coop to SSVR! We listened, implemented and tested, and today we can confirm that we have an internal build that's coming along nicely and the patch should be out soon, bringing coop to the game! Thanks to your awesome response, we were able to bring even more devs to the Croteam VR, our internal department for all things VR, and those things are getting bigger and bigger. We have plans for many more surprises, but first things first. Team is hard at work on implementing the skill tree and bringing Captain Sam to Shaanti, a gorgeous planet extremely abundant in resources. This planet's biodiversity rivals that of Earth but recent research suggests its inhabitants may be extinct. OR ARE THEY? As always, we'd like to get the coop mode out and running as soon as possible, and this being the Early Access title means we can do just that! Standard disclaimer applies, tho: expect bugs, mayhem, even more Mental's minions and fun (not necessarily in that order).

Have you ever wondered what it's really like to be Serious Sam? Have you ever wanted to fight Mental's alien hordes with your own two hands? Well, now you can! Step into the shoes of the Earth Defense Force's greatest hero in this unique VR simulation based on Sam Stone's own log files from his time as captain of the Battlecruiser Saratoga. Experience the missions that turned Captain Stone into the legend that he is today.

Key Features at Early Access Launch:


  • Tons of enemies – Hordes of attacking enemies have always been a trademark of the Serious Sam series, and Serious Sam: The Last Hope continues to deliver countless terrors in just one scene, harnessing the serious power of the Serious Engine 4.5.
  • Tons of guns – Dual-wield miniguns, tommy guns, heavy lasers, shotguns, and an assortment of other guns. Oh, and chainsaws, too! More then 10 different weapons, including the rocket launcher, will be available from the beginning of Early Access, and Sam's lethal armory will be regularly expanded in future updates.
  • Planet-hopping action – Battle across treacherous Egyptian sands, in the pitch-dark under ancient ruins, and on the surface of Pladeon, the long-abandoned heart of a great industrial civilization. Early Access starts with two planets, each with four different locations, while more of Sam's adventures across the galaxy will become available in future updates.
  • Dick's back, too! - Featuring the voice of Serious Sam, John. J. Dick, dropping one-liners as you drop enemies.
  • Cry for Mummy – Defeat Mental's most powerful servants, starting with the Unholy Space Mummy of Gamma Pegasi, a huge, terrifying, undead monstrosity brought to life with dark magic - as dangerous as it is smelly! And that's just the first boss.
  • Hyper-immersive realism – Graphics so good that if you die in the simulation, you die in the real world!*
    *Might or might not be entirely true. But we tested it and we're pretty sure it works the other way around.

Updated Features since Early Access Launch:


  • New Planet: Valtos - 4th planet (Valtos) with four different locations, two new weapons, 6 new enemies and 1 new boss.
  • New Planet: Shaanti - 3rd planet (Shaanti) with four different locations and five difficulty settings 3 new game mechanics, 9 new enemies and 1 new boss.
  • Oculus Touch Support - Full support for Oculus Rift and Oculus Touch on SteamVR.
  • Mixed Reality Setup Wizard - https://youtu.be/c_An0vxvPnk
  • nVidia VR SLI - Full support for nVidia VR SLI.
  • Coop Mode - Play campaign with your friend online.
  • More Difficulty Settings - Two new difficulty settings: Tourist and Serious (both in single player and coop mode).
  • Localization - Added Chinese text.
