Solo developer Zeekerss hasn't released official patch notes, but said the update isn't fully finished. They even admitted that the redesigned movement speed up and down slopes—a change that is driving some players mad—will be less severe in the next iteration. The evil butler and missile-launching mechs, however, seem to be working mostly as intended.

Zeekerss saidthat they'd like to release more substantial updates that surprise players."I really want content updates to Lethal Company to feel like I broke into an alien zoo and released all the animals," they said.Sign up to get the best content of the week, and great gaming deals, as picked by the editors.
