About the Game
Contain is a first-person cooperative tactical shooter, but if you like you can play as a Lone Wolf. There is an organization that directs many task forces that are trying to control objects of supernatural origin that have fallen from space. The story centers on a special task force.

Pistol damages increased.

Hello everyone!
As we mentioned before, updates will now take a bit more time unless they are urgent hotfixes. Here are the details of this small update;
Visuals & Immersion
End Game Experience: Completely overhauled the end-of-match flow. Instead of just cutting to a black screen on mission completion, successful squads are now brought together into a cinematic lineup! Exclusive to completing the mission, you will now see your character and your teammates standing side-by-side alongside the final scoreboard, complete with new victory animations.

Low GIF quality is due to Steam file size limits.
Dev Note: We are currently working on unique animations and visual distinctions for "Win" vs. "Lose" states, which will be implemented in an upcoming update.
Shadow Quality: We have adjusted the baseline shadow settings for better visual consistency. The option to turn shadows completely "Off" has been renamed to "Low" and is slightly more demanding on hardware. If you are playing on "Epic," the shadow quality remains unchanged.
Dev Note: Turning shadows completely off didn't do our lighting system justice. We've set "Low" as the new baseline to ensure the atmosphere remains intact for everyone.
Gameplay & Balance
Knockdown Safety: Implemented a 1-second input lockout immediately after being knocked down to prevent unintentional Stimpack usage while firing.
EchoSurge Balance: Corrected the Anomaly Computer loading time from 10 seconds to 50 seconds to align with the intended design.
Animation & Fixes
Mission Complete Sequences: Fixed an issue where the mission complete cinematic sequence would fail to trigger for players who were too far away from the objective.
Grenades: Fixed a bug where the "cancel throw" animation (putting the pin back in) would incorrectly play on clients after a successful throw.
HUB: Fixed an issue where the player's weapon would unintentionally lower when reaching the far end of the deployment zone.
Audio
Heartbeat Audio: Removed an unnecessary heartbeat sound that was playing during the loading screen and the final sequence of the Loose Ends map.
Fixed an issue where breathing and heartbeat sound effects would persist after death or while spectating.
Fixed an issue where the fire mode switch sound was audible to all players in the match.
UI & Localization
Interaction UI: Fixed an issue where only one interaction line could display at a time.
UI: Enabled the ESC key to close various pop-up menus.
Localization: Added missing Chinese translations from Crowdin.
Dev Note: Thanks to everyone who got involved in the changes and new wording translations from our China Community.
We know you’re also waiting for the Roadmap. Instead of rushing out a placeholder, we want to ensure our timeline is as accurate and realistic as possible. Our plan is to release an estimated roadmap within the next week. This will outline the new content and improvements planned for each quarter of 2026.
If the update does not appear, please re-launch your Steam Client.

Hello everyone!
Here are the current patch details;
Difficulty settings now save automatically, even if the "Start" button is not pressed.
Added a "Return to Hub" button for the Host, allowing the entire lobby to transition back to the hub together.
Fixed a bug where the USP-H pistol magazine check would cause the character to "A-pose" in third-person view.
Resolved text overflow and clipping issues where translated text exceeded UI boundaries in various languages.
Corrected broken social media links in the Main Menu.
Fixed the reported locations where players get stuck in the environments.
Redesigned the specific location reported by the players in the Underground facility (Loose Ends Operation) to improve flow and visibility. This adjustment ensures players have more room to maneuver while managing the Anomaly, preventing accidental softlocks during the encounter.
If you happen to encounter these bugs again, please send us a report.
Note: We were planning to include all missing and changed localizations in this patch, but they will be added in later patches.
If the update does not appear, please exit and re-open your Steam Client.

If you happen to encounter these bugs again, please send us a report.

Audio

Added sound effects for collecting DataCores.
Added sound effects for the Loose Ends Bunker Door opening sequence.
UI
Localization: Fixed text-overflow issues where translated text was cut off or exceeded UI bounds in certain languages.

Hello everyone!
Development Update: Patch Strategy
As you may notice, instead of releasing rapid back-to-back fixes, we have started to collect multiple issues to resolve them in a single patch. This helps us ensure the stability of each update.
However, this does not mean that game-breaking issues will be left waiting. There will be hot fixes for them, so most critical bugs will still be prioritized and deployed as quickly as possible.
PS. For today, we may deploy another patch.
You may also notice that some issues persist. Our team is working hard to resolve them, but we need more data to reproduce certain bugs. We have noticed that some problems appear to be individual cases. We are currently investigating the causes so we can patch those accordingly as well.
Here are the current patch details;
Fixes
We have identified the cause of the recoil issue, and our tests show it is now resolved.
If you happen to encounter this bug again, please send us a report with a detailed description. This helps us track down the root cause much faster so we can implement a permanent fix.
"x/y player is ready" UI now accounts for leaving/joining players.
Fixed Toggle Crouch, Sprint, and Aim not loading from settings when switching maps.
Fixed the incorrect difficulty icon on Score Screen.
QoL
Mission Selection Screen difficulty doesn't change while switching between tabs.
Added "Leave Squad" button to Score screen in case people want to leave the lobby after the game, without waiting for the host.
This patch also includes several under-the-hood structural changes and fixes to improve the game's foundation.
If the update does not appear, please exit and re-open your Steam Client.

Gameplay
- In Echo Surge, the Husk horde spawn count and how often they will be have been reworked. So now that depends on the player count and the selected difficulty.
Maps
- Some layout and design changes were made in Echo Surge, Too Late, and District 8 mission maps. (Community Request)
- Anomaly room sequence fixed in Too Late mission. Players can't jump in the room if the Sequence has not been triggered, so they won't get stuck inside. (This anomaly sequence still triggers randomly)
