Biggest SERUM Update Since Early Access Launch

Game Island, in partnership with Toplitz Productions are pleased to announce that the latest update for their single-player immersive story-driven survival adventure game SERUM is now available and formulates the game’s biggest content update so far.

Since its launch on PC early access in May, developer Game Island has expanded and enhanced the game’s features and resources available to players across five previous patches. Its latest content update with patch 6 represents one of its largest content drops and adds 23 steam achievements for players to acquire as they loot, craft, recycle and take down various mutated nasties during the course of their games. A custom difficulty mode also arrives in patch 6 allowing players to select the desired competitive level of challenge in their gameplay. Additionally, this latest update gives players another formidable tool to utilize in their survival capabilities with the addition of combat traps, which were previously hinted at in the early access roadmap.

Combined with the previous freestanding absorbers and updated trap placement system provided in patch 5, the combat traps (slashing, piercing and blunt force variants) aim to give players another tactical approach in their quest for survival from the menagerie of mutated beasts that roam Serum’s dark and challenging world.

Developer Game Island has also included a comprehensive list of new fixes and improvements across several areas of the game including inventory, storage, quests and visuals. Additionally, performance improvements through optimization have been a big focus since patch 5.

Last but not least patch 6 also adds additional language support in addition to the 9 languages the game currently supports.

Beyond this latest content update, Serum’s early access roadmap includes plans to bring a 4-player co-op mode later on this year as well as a challenging new level for survivors to explore in the form of a canyon biome, with new mutated adversaries and more revelations about the mutagen that form the basis of the game’s main story and questline.

Further details on SERUM including its early access roadmap of planned content can be found on the games official Steam page, and through its regular diary on social media, revealing more about the world, crafting, and macabre dangers that players will encounter.

SERUM is available now on PC Early Access on Steam.

A Serum Ultimate Edition is also available to buy on Steam and includes a Serum story codex, Serum digital cocktail book and Serum official guide. The Serum Guide Edition includes the official guide and provides expert insights and strategies.
