We've dropped some awesome new content for our 4.3 update, but before we get into that, some news about our new upcoming map, The Manor. Originally, we gave Q2 2024 (April - June) as the expected release date for the map. We need to delay its release until September 2024. To be transparent about why: during early playtesting, we found that April (possessed by Azazel), and the map itself, weren't working the way we had hoped. In general, it didn't feel scary enough, so we went back to the drawing board and we're now implementing some major improvements. We know the delay will come as a disappointment to some of you, and we're genuinely sorry. That said, we never put out content unless we are proud of it. We're going to take the time we need to get the map right. We've always wanted to get our yearly map releases closer to the Halloween period, which we will now be able. Please remember that we never charge for new content. We love DEVOUR, and we want to be able to continue making quality content for it. However, sometimes these things take more time than expected. We're working super hard on the game and will continue to do so for the forseeable future. We're releasing a teaser trailer for the map soon, so keep an eye out! Now, onto what's included in 4.3 - there's a lot to keep you busy over the summer! Extra Perk Slot We recently shared a perks feedback form with the community and we'd like to thank everyone who took the time to fill it in. There were so many useful thoughts and amazing ideas shared. As a result, we've overhauled the system, introduced some great new perks, and added a second perk slot, so players can equip two perks at the same time (a much requested feature in the feedback). Note that all perks are split into 2 categories. You can only pick a single perk from each category. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37243634/dd3bbf5977624c2b0b01e9eda91da2955de43d7c.gif New Perks {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37243634/83854ea2950e6c4c85c56aa1310908e699856c30.jpg INSPIRED: Ritual items are highlighted for 10 seconds after increasing map progress KEYMASTER: Keys are highlighted through walls PATIENT: UV charge regenerates 125% faster when in hiding spots TEAMWORK: UV charge depletes 25% slower when within 5 meters of any alive player STAY BACK: Movement speed of Azazel's minions is decreased by 50% when last player alive (co-op only) Weekly Challenges Regular challenges have been a popular request for a while now, and we've been hard at work implementing something that we hope will give you even more reason to jump into a DEVOUR run! Challenges reset every Wednesday (UTC time). Each challenge is tied to a specific map and difficulty, with one for each difficulty mode. Challenges can only be completed once. You'll be granted a large chunk of EXP for completing a challenge and finishing a map (win or lose). If you leave a game early, you'll lose all challenge progress you gained during that game and won't gain any EXP.

The competition is now closed, and over the past few days the development team has been voting for their favourite entry. We'd like to thank everyone who entered their work. The entire team has been really impressed with the quality of the entries and it's no exaggeration to say we enjoyed every single piece and all the imaginative, original ideas you came up with. For that reason, it's been very difficult for the developers to choose a favourite! That said, we're really pleased to reveal that saithefool is the winner of the competition with this incredible piece: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37243634/dcc2e7d415e62f4d423ada079b1e2f8cb321d677.png And although these pieces won't be featured in the game, here are the 4 amazing runners up, in no particular order: kamma98: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37243634/1603acb2a50f5befdcd4a70e959f8ee87e579948.png zuma_reyan: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37243634/9e2f5f8d754096843e0e792b9903aa2447fee167.png poshe: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37243634/4eaec3c3deeaf728851afc930720060dbd67d516.png obliviousowlsdomain: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37243634/43bceb83ccdd099ffbca30caa66d232793be455b.png Once again, a huge thank you to all the talented artists who entered the competition this year.

In our upcoming new map The Manor, you'll confront the cruel heartbreak that drove cult member April North to make a terrifying blood pact with the demon Azazel. The house and its grounds are plagued by an atmosphere of relentless grief and reminders of a lost love. You'll need to gather together pieces of the past before April can rest, but she won't make it easy. With Azazel's terrifying power coursing through her, she will haunt your every move and stop at nothing in her goal to snatch back what was taken from her. As with our first map, The Farmhouse, The Manor is a blend of indoor and outdoor areas, so you won't just be spending your time inside the manor itself, but its grounds also. As the whisper of gateways to another realm hangs in the cold air, gaze upon the ashen remains of a garden wedding that never took place, before turning your attention to a crypt that invites only the brave of heart to enter..

We know many of you are wondering when the map will release, and as we previously stated, it's still on target for Q2 - probably closer to the start of that time frame. As always, we'll drop the trailer a week or so in advance with confirmation of the release date and time. We can also confirm that the official floormap of The Manor will be added to the Supporter's Edition shortly before the map releases. As always, thank you all for your continued support! We can't wait to invite you to The Manor..

Here at DEVOUR, we're celebrating spooky season with our yearly Halloween Event, which will run until November 6th at 9am PST. In this update, we're also thrilled to bring you a brand new emote system, a new playable character, new outfits, and more. We've also listened to player feedback asking for more to work towards and unlock in the game. Read on for more details! The Manor Before we explore the current update, we want to reassure players that we're still hard at work on our upcoming new map The Manor, due Spring 2024. If you haven't seen the concept art for demonic April, check it out now in our recent news post! We'll publish more news as soon as we can with a look at what we've been working on for the map's environment. We can't wait to show you more. Without further ado, let's check out update 4.2 - it's a big one! Kai's Halloween Outfit To unlock this amazing, unique cosmetic for Kai, you need to beat any map on hard or nightmare while playing as him. If you miss out, you'll also be able to purchase the outfit after the Halloween event has ended. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37243634/3d52f3888001f01531e73bc2d6e70c57631e23f5.jpg Pumpkin Robe Unlock this awesomely spooky robe by finding the 50 creepy Halloween pumpkins hidden across all 5 maps. Once unlocked, you'll still be able to wear the robe after the Halloween event has ended. After all, pumpkins are for life, not just for Halloween! Note: Players who already unlocked the robe during last year's Halloween Event might need to find the 10 pumpkins on the new Slaughterhouse map to retain ownership of it (we understand that this is frustrating - from next year onward you won't have to do this anymore). {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37243634/09559b6bb2b26cfde9eb63945a297680c5d23af3.jpg XP Boost Many players enjoy DEVOUR over the Halloween period, so we're enabling a 1.5x EXP boost for the duration of the Halloween Event. Time to grind those cult ranks! New Playable Character - Frank Morello Introducing Frank Morello, DEVOUR's newest playable character. A New York native, Frank is a former fisherman and baseball fanatic who left the big apple behind to join the cult in the hope it would bring the power and fortune he craved. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37243634/91199fb1c983a6d259448bf9643624450b5ee702.jpg Emote System We know the character emotes are popular with players, so our devs have been hard at work implementing a brand new emote system, with 35 emotes we think you're going to love. 9 of these emotes are character unique, and can be unlocked by beating any map on Hard difficulty with that character. The rest can be unlocked by spending Ritual Tokens, or by purchasing them as a cosmetic. To find them, go to the Outfits section when in a Lobby, and click on the new Emotes tab. We hope to add more of these in future. Note: We've also added a Classic Emote Behaviour gameplay setting, which allows you to use the game's 4 original emotes without changing the camera angle. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37243634/0...Our Next Map: Exciting New Info! Plus Halloween Event DetailsJul 14, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsWe know many of you have been waiting for some solid information on our next map - so here it is! Please also check out the rest of the post for info on our upcoming 4.2 Halloween update, which will include some awesome new features and content. The Manor We've been hard at work brainstorming the major written, artistic and gameplay elements for a map we're calling The Manor. With The Slaughterhouse, we pushed the gore factor in a way we had never done before, and we've been thrilled to see the positive response players have had to its bloody themes and claustrophobic feel. With The Manor, we are challenging ourselves again. The map will feature April as the demon, evil crows as her minions, and will be set in a Victorian-era manor house (and its gardens) in England, UK. We're working on creating a haunted, ghostly feel, which is something we've long wanted to do properly. We can also confirm that players will likely be moving around in a way that's completely different to our previous maps. We don't have a firm idea yet of when the map will release, but it will likely be the first quarter of 2024. We know this might feel like a long wait, but as a small indie studio we do our best to put out new maps of a high quality as quickly as we can. We really appreciate your support and understanding! Without further ado, please check out our concept art for demonic April and her crow minions: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37243634/06e42d4c664abc1e29625f4dbb43fe505459f0b4.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37243634/5fb20c921ce8440d4fce2993d2cf6bb123b866de.png 4.2 Halloween Update - Due September 28th Halloween is our favourite holiday of the year! We can confirm that our annual event will take place again, running from 10am PST on September 28th until 10am PST on November 2nd. During the event there will be pumpkin collecting across the maps, a new character-specific Halloween outfit to unlock, and the usual XP boost. The Halloween update will also include lots of other exciting stuff: A new playable character called Frank (who we know you're going to love!) A whole new, revamped in-game emote system, along with a variety of unique, unlockable emotes A prestigious golden robe that can be unlocked for each playable character by beating any map on Nightmare difficulty, plus new associated achievements Purchasable pet crow A whole range of fun, new purchasable outfits Full details to come when 4.2 drops in September. For now, take a look at a couple of teaser images for the update: Say hi to Frank Morello: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37243634/dcd58591ed09f68283e2ea70c65fa7cbbc1a1e65.png Emote wheel: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37243634/009142438d9ad30f020a38dd8da6b55becb860a8.jpg As ever, thanks for your fantastic support.

We've finally had time to dig into our backlog since The Slaughterhouse update and we're pleased to bring you a number of the most highly requested features and fixes, as well as a new purchasable outfit for Sam (bonus points for those who recognise where it draws its inspiration from!) We can also confirm that work on the next DEVOUR map is well underway, and that the team is really excited about its direction. We'll share more info about our schedule for the map when we have a clearer idea of it ourselves. Please see below for a look at Sam's awesome new outfit, and a detailed change log. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37243634/620d11a3be6087fb6d3545e6127fc7b2c429c6ae.png Full 4.1 change log: New purchasable 'Victory' outfit for Sam Players can vote to skip ending cut-scenes Game will pause in single-player when the menu is opened New button for hosts in the menu to "Exit to Lobby" (instead of exiting back to the main menu) When opening a locked door with a key for the first time, an unlock sound will play Keys are now greyed out in the list once used (all maps) Single player can now use text chat (useful for making notes for yourself whilst playing) Added camera shake to the elevator during the intro on The Asylum Improved performance for hosts when opening/closing doors.

Please note that this is by design! We wanted to really challenge you with this map. That being said, we're seeing most people can complete the game on Normal mode after practicing for a little while. If you are still finding it hard, feel free to pop in to our Discord server where the community will be more than happy to share some tips! The late game max speed of boars has been reduced by 15%. Their early game starting speed has been increased by 15%. Ultimately, this means they have less of a differential in speed across the course of a game. The curve by which Nathan increases his speed has been smoothed. In practice, this means he starts out a bit faster but ends at the same top max speed. Overall, his speed will feel ever so slightly reduced until the last 2 sacrifices which have not been changed. This does not impact his vent speeds. v4.0.14Mar 21, 2023 - Community Announcements- Slaughterhouse: Boars now de-spawn immediately when the final pig is dunked - Long player names are truncated on post game stats - Slaughterhouse: Players no longer respawn facing a vent wall after leaving purgatory - Fixed an animation issue on pigs (pet and Slaughterhouse) - Pets should now appear to move more smoothly over the networkv4.0.13Mar 13, 2023 - Community Announcements- Fixed an issue where Nathan was unable to knock a player out who was stuck on him at very close range - Fixed a couple of spots on the Town where items could be lost when dropped - Fixed issues around players disconnecting while using the crank on the Slaughterhouse map - Fixed an edge condition across all forms of Azazel where the stagger animation and red eyes wouldn't happen if line of sight was lost at the same timev4.0.12Mar 10, 2023 - Community Announcements- Fixed occlusion issue in Slaughterhouse basement - Tweak to the AI pathing in the fenced off area in the centre of the abattoir on Slaughterhouse
