Agents!
We wanted to thank you for your continued love and support! Your feedback and suggestions have been key in helping us improve the game as we approach the official launch in 2025. We’re excited to share the latest updates and improvements based on your feedback. Please let us know through Discord or Steam if you have any questions, feedback, or suggestions.
With this update, we are retiring "Blackout Protocol" and hope for your continued support as we work to bring Section 13 to the best possible version. Unfortunately, all player save files will reset and the game will require a Steam game update to enjoy the new and improved Section 13.
