About the Game
Become a Space Wrangler and take direct control of creatures called "Voidlings" in this action-packed sci-fi 3rd person shooter. Shape them through branching evolution paths and upgrade their abilities to overcome bubonic swarms, pestilent bosses, and reclaim lush planets overrun by corruption.
Shoot, slash, slam, and blast your way through battles. Evade, block, or parry incoming attacks. Sprint, jump, and dash across diverse biomes and planets. Charge and unleash devastating ultimate abilities to defeat the most challenging foes.
Evolve across branching paths to customize your elemental alignment, appearance, playstyle, and abilities. Discover powerful mutated perks that change how each Voidling is played. Craft and pick the right Voidling for each challenge.
Level up your Voidlings and assign attribute points to customize their playstyle: strength, vitality, essence, recuperation, or agility—the choice is yours. Research deep and powerful ability upgrades to improve their capacities.
Cleanse vibrant handcrafted planets oozing with diverse enemies, each posing unique gameplay challenges. Complete missions and survive challenging arenas to find precious resources, research points, eggs and mutagens that are key in your fight against the parasite.
Discover new Voidlings by rescuing and hatching eggs from infested locations. Get lucky and hatch rare natures that empower your Voidlings. Breed to combine natures and attributes for even more power.
Acquire all Voidlings, collect body parts, colors, and eye genes to customize your specimens. Acquire game-changing ability genes and mutated perks to fill your collection.
Use your gene collection to craft unique Voidlings that combine the strength of all your discoveries. Unlock powerful synergies otherwise impossible to overcome ever-increasing Challenges!
Descend into the Abyss and face ever-increasing challenges. After each victory, dive deeper against greater threats for greater rewards, or retreat to safety. Equip Corrupted DNA Catalyzers to push your creatures’ statistics to new heights!

Patch Notes
Build: Release-77959
Bug Fixes
Fixed a crash when pressing "Q" and "E" during the Splicing sequence.
Fixed the last catalyzer being removed when attributing catalyzers before stats on a creature.
Voidpedia - fixed the Evolution Details screen displaying the wrong Size Gene.
Fixed enemies dropping their loot twice when executed by a perk.
Fixed losing control of your creature when the Impending Doom perk triggered.
Fixed skill's VFX rendering issue on Intel integrated graphics (e.g. Kerapin defensive shield).

Fixed several Abyss issues: enemies spawning under the ship, cleansers appearing outside the combat dome, an egg stuck in the ground, and corridors no longer showing up past Abyss level 30.
Changes & Improvements
Default keybindings now follow your OS keyboard layout (AZERTY, QWERTZ, Dvorak and others). Any key you rebound yourself is preserved.
Off-Element damage will now still scale with elemental power at 25% effectiveness instead of 0%, making single element essence builds more viable in the Abyss.

Tweaked kill zone in *Storm Breaker* to allow backtracking in the boss arena when using the rail.
Reduced rendering cost of catalyzer at all settings, added specific optimizations for low settings.
The controller deadzone can now be lowered all the way down to 0% (was 5% minimum).

Potential fix for a crash on Boss spawn
Patch Notes
Build: Release-76956
Bug Fixes
Potential fix for crashes while loading missions on Intel Iris Xe GPUs (especially Subterranean Expedition).
Potential fix for crashes on startup on devices with an NPU.
Potential fix for bosses being one-shot as they spawn, which could break Abyss runs.
Fixed multiple "on damage" perks blocking each other.
Fixed a bug that allowed Morfang to reload after interrupting its primary attack with the reload key.
Fixed Ursek stance switch interaction with the Decaying Matter perk that would result in a loss of power, armor or speed stacks.
Fixed Ursek shield charge armor upgrade that wasn't properly granting armor.
Fixed Anami homing projectile location against the Ancient Warden boss.
Improved teleporting enemy checks to prevent them leaving combat areas or going behind objects they shouldn't, fixing a large variety of flow breakers.
Sealed several spots where players could fall under the map, land in a damaging puddle, or get launched into the sky.
Adjusted Abyss boss arena out-of-bounds zones to prevent bosses from staying stuck outside the play area.
Fixed an overlapping cleansing area in an Abyss level that led to Cleansing bar issues.
The "Reach 50 Abyss depth with a Species" Voidpedia counter now updates correctly (existing progress on this needs to be re-earned. Sorry!).
Changes & Improvements
Bosses can now take damage once they're out of the ground during their spawn attack, and now appear twice as fast in the Abyss when emerging to keep better pacing.
Abyss enemies now have health scaling like in other activities.
Implemented a slow scaling of enemy damage at much deeper depths to keep danger in very deep runs. Enemy damage resist now caps at 50% instead of 80% to limit situations where players deal 1 damage per attack.
Implemented health growth on enemies so players can see their damage properly applied instead of only seeing "1" damage values.
Abyss elite balance: clamped their spawn rate at high Abyss levels, lowered their armor and increased their health, and reduced their healing on bosses and other elites.
Removed the Ascending elite modifier. We may revisit it, but it was currently creating confusion.
Ascended Landscaper health increased from 100 to 250.
Together Strong's cap of 5 stacks has been removed and now properly scales with the full number of minions nearby.
Frenzied perk post-application duration increased from 0.2 to 0.35 to improve effectiveness with slow fire rate, short duration abilities.
Buffed Massive Effect Catalyzer status effect damage multiplier from 100% to 250% to bring it more in line with other Corrupted Catalyzers.
Tweaked some encounter despawn distances to allow long range builds more possibilities in maps where they were short.
You can now splice creatures with a Neutral Element.
Reduced stutters and improved performance across the Abyss and many missions.
Huge thanks to everyone reporting bugs !

Abyss
For this patch, we wanted to act quickly on some of the more frustrating elements of the Abyss.
Our immediate focus was making it faster for you to get to the fun parts, as well as tuning down the infinite scaling of enemy damage resistance to make deep progression both possible and rewarding.
While we are planning wider changes to the game mode, we hope these quick quality-of-life adjustments improve your experience while we work on larger scale changes!
Huge thanks to everyone reporting bugs !

Abyss - Fixed Phasing Elite that would reset bosses spawn phase.

Changes & Improvements
