Official announcements, patch notes, and server updates — tracked so you don't have to.

Dedicated Server & Market Reopening

The long-awaited dedicated server migration is here. Steam Market expected to reopen with new listing limits: 4 slots per player, 8-hour cooldown per slot. Duped items will be cross-checked and removed. Anti-cheat detection strengthened.

This follows the June 7 postponement of the "Relay Server" update, after internal testing showed relays alone couldn't handle 400K+ concurrent players.

Steam Market Temporarily Closed

Listing new items on the Steam Market was disabled at 12:00 AM PDT. Trade Ship menu removed from the game. Existing purchases and listing cancellations remain functional. The closure is aimed at curbing bot-driven traffic.

Chest Error Hotfix & Update Postponement

Chest spawn bug fixed. Chest acquisition requests are now held and delivered in stacks to reduce server load. The planned "Relay Server Addition" update was postponed — team announced they are building a dedicated server from scratch instead.

Item Reset & Market Trading Policy Change (Ver 1.00.07)

Massive overhaul: Cube functions restored, Trade Ship locked until Cube Level 10. Only Legendary-grade equipment and above can be traded on the Market. Equipment at levels 25–90 and all "Type B" gear deleted. 6 DLC costumes to be given free as compensation.

Emergency Update — Steam Server Outage (Ver 1.00.05)

Cube features (Alchemy, Crafting, etc.) temporarily disabled due to Steam server outage. Priest and Slayer bug fixes included.
