Indie game publisher Dreamhaven and developer Moonshot Games have launched a new update for their spacefaring crew-based first-person shooter, Wildgate. The focus will be on changing a few items in the game, including an overhaul of the progression system, a new ship and perks, and the addition of more weapons and equipment. We have more details below as the content is now live.

Wildgate – Progression Update

A rehauled progression system has arrived! Experiment with even more playstyles by unlocking new weapons and equipment through Starlogs. Current and returning players will keep already unlocked items through previous progression systems.Starlogs will replace several older progression systems, and everything you've already earned will remain. So if you've unlocked items through previous systems, you'll keep them. Veteran players may notice that many Starlog pages are already partially, or fully, completed when they log in.

Starlogs (Progression 2.0): Replacing several older progression systems, Starlogs give players more agency over the rewards they earn and make rewards more visible.
Battle Scout Ship: With 100 health and a fast turning speed, the Battle Scout gives crews a nimble option built for agility and precision maneuvering. In addition to its handling profile, the Battle Scout features prospector catapults on either side, opening up a wider variety of tactical possibilities, from aggressive boarding plays to rapid repositioning during fights.
Perks: Perks give players more ways to adjust prospectors, offering expanded approaches to the game and more ways to switch up preferred playstyles.
New Weapons: Wreak more havoc in the Reach with the foam gun, rocket launcher, and hand cannon.
New Equipment: Try the repulsor or plasma grenade to knock enemies back and deal more damage.
Micro Points of Interest (POIs): Found in Treasure Hunt and Explore mode, these compact points of interest create more opportunities for discovery, skirmishes, and quick tactical decisions during runs.
