An Enormous Update: The Complete Game-Changer

Lethal Company is one of the cooperative games that has attracted the most attention in recent months, particularly thanks to streamers. The principle is simple: as a team, you will have to collect as many objects as possible in an area infested by monsters. You will then have to earn as much money as possible to continue your increasingly difficult missions and potentially face these creatures. In addition to its perfect gameplay for multiplayer, its zany humor really appealed to players, Lethal Company is terribly funny and fun.

With a record of more than 240,000 simultaneous players on Steam, the games were played at breakneck speed. Very quickly the game developer, Zeekerss, implemented dozens of updates. Now, it's the turn of the fiftieth to arrive, and with such a symbolic number we must mark the occasion with an update never seen before.

Lethal Company celebrates its patch 50

Zeekerss has been teasing for several months now this famous update 50. He also promised new skins and new maps. A few days ago, the patch arrived and the creator didn't lie: it's never been seen before and it changes everything as there are so many new features. Among the most important new features, we find:

• – spike traps, which must be avoided like turrets
• – The “Old Birds” of robots which can quickly become dangerous
• – Tulip snakes, which attack in groups by flying around you
• – The butler: a harmless creature, except when you find yourself alone facing it
• – Some new moons like Artifice or Embryo, which contain many dangers

Still on the new side, the new promised appearances are also there, in addition to a knife that can be used to defend yourself. In terms of accessories, you may be lucky enough to come across a disco ball to set the mood or an Easter egg for a nice surprise, or not. All the details can be found on the Steam page of the game to discover these new features.

An update against speedrunners?

In addition to new features, patch 50 improves or corrects many things. For example, the shovel is heavier, and the Bunker spiders are more numerous and faster. On the other hand, elements like the crouch sprint, which allowed you to run without making noise, have been fixed, which is a problem for some speedrunners. “I know this kind of change can seem hostile to speedrunnersbut they bypass the design and mechanics of Lethal Company, requiring no skill or strategy”, reacted Zeekerss. On the other hand, he wanted to leave the jet pack as is, elected the gadget “the most eccentric” of the moment by the players.
