Prisoners,
We’ve deployed a hotfix rolling back some of the vehicle changes introduced in yesterday’s November Update after they caused new movement and physics issues.
This means some earlier collision issues may return while we investigate the cause further and test a revised solution.
The hotfix also restores chat message colors and includes several other fixes. We’ve also corrected Steam’s default controller template, which prevented some controllers from working automatically in-game.
We’re sorry for the disruption, and thank you for the reports and videos that helped us investigate.
Full hotfix notes: store.steampowered.com/news/…
Prisoners, the November Update is live!
Tattoos, controller support, Photo Mode for all and Linux multiplayer via Proton, including Steam Deck and Steam Machine.
Plus fixes for vehicle collisions, blocked bunker doors and foliage in bases.

The November Update, originally scheduled for release today, November 9th, has been rescheduled to November 11th, 2026.‼️📅
We want to make sure the update meets the quality standards you deserve and delivers the best possible experience. Taking this extra day will allow us to give it the attention it needs before it goes live. 🔴
Thank you for your patience and understanding, and we appreciate your continued support.
Prisoners!

We have difficult news to share today. Our statement is below.
Development of SCUM will continue. Please give our colleagues some space as they process the news.

ALT A difficult decision has been made to reduce the size of the Gamepires team, which means saying goodbye to colleagues who’ve helped shape SCUM and the studio. This step is necessary to help Gamepires adapt to challenging market conditions and support its long-term sustainability. This is a business decision, not a judgement on the team’s work. We thank those leaving for everything they’ve put into SCUM and contributed to Gamepires. We remain committed to SCUM. Development will continue, with further updates and new content to come.
Prisoners 📢
Hotfix #2 is LIVE 🔴
Radioactive Carp proved a little too
profitable last night.
We’ve fixed the bug behind those payouts, alongside
some other fishing, wildlife and chat fixes.
