Overview
- Developer Vedinad rolled out the PC update with a new map, playable character, weapon, items, enemies and bosses, plus fresh achievements and challenges.
- The studio says the release began as a modest Halloween patch before expanding in scope during development.
- Late-game FPS sees substantial improvements alongside numerous bug fixes, new advanced settings, and an in-game console opened with F10 for setting dungeon seeds.
- Balance changes address late-game behavior and economy by fixing the cave-hiding exploit, reducing Final Swarm’s max silver multiplier from 16x to 8x, and tightening crowd control after 20 minutes.
- Megabonk maintains strong traction on Steam with an Overwhelmingly Positive rating and an October peak above 117,000 concurrent players, following Vedinad’s withdrawal from The Game Awards’ debut category.
