Hello everyone!
Something that we have been working on for a long time alongside developing updates has been making Barotrauma available outside Steam as well. As we have seen unexpected successes with our little submarine simulator, year after year, weve been looking into ways to take it to other platforms eventually. Now were ready to make the game available through Epic Games Store in addition to Steam!
The Epic launch will not change anything for players who want to stick to Steam: When you launch Barotrauma for the first time following our EGS release, you will see a prompt asking you to enable crossplay between Steam and Epic. If you do not wish to do so, you can decline, and that will be all. You can also update your preferences at any time in the game settings.
If you enable crossplay, and if we find a lot of new users through Epic, you can look forward to playing with a lot of new people. Hosting and joining servers works seamlessly across these two platforms, so it doesnt matter which platform your friends are on you can play with them just the same, without needing to create a separate account on the other store.
Were excited to be entering a second platform and hope that you are excited too! In the future, updates will be released on both platforms, but due to some technical differences between the two systems, more in-depth involvement such as Unstable testing will only happen in the Steam version.
Check out Barotrauma on Epic Games Store now, and let your friends on Epic know too!
