The next Barotrauma update is getting closer, but before we get into the upcoming new content, we wanted to write a bit about something else. Tomorrow marks the 2nd anniversary of our Steam release, and looking back at the past year, were once again both amazed and grateful to see how far weve gotten and how many new submariners have joined us on our journey. Thank you to everyone whos been with us and helped the game grow into what it is today!
We feel the game and the community have taken a big leap forwards since the last anniversary: weve introduced some big, long-awaited features such as the explorable outposts, caves, the Abyss monsters from the legacy version, and too many smaller improvements and additions to count. Our player base has also more than doubled in size since last June!
In our new blog post we talk a bit more about our journey so far, including some of the highlights and challenges weve faced during the games development and Early Access period. Take a look here, and have a great weekend!
