Scraplers Patch Notes — December 7, 2025
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
Update Alpha 9.0 is available for download.

List of changes:
A large-scale rebalancing and redesign of the generation of location content (goods, mercenaries, quests, garrison, crawlers for sale) has been carried out. The redesign aims to make the gameplay more diverse and unpredictable, as well as increase the value of mercenaries and crawlers in the game. Now each settlement on the global map lives more dynamically - the location update period has been significantly reduced (from 1 to 12 game hours). The update process itself has also been improved. Products are updated more frequently and in more variety. Mercenaries and crawlers are updated frequently, but with a lower chance. The garrison of the location is replenished with a more complex method the earlier - the more free places for the garrison, the greater the chance of a new soldier appearing.
The time spent on visiting the local map has been increased 4 times. This change allows you to waste time much faster, and therefore, life goes faster inside the game.
Added the ability to create (incubation) game NPCs to your crew. It takes a lot of resources to create, including rare ones, as well as to find and study the recipe.
Added the ability to infect crew members with parasites when fighting mobs from the Tulhit family. Infected NPCs cannot be identified or cured, and after a while monsters will hatch from them and attack your team, and the infected NPC will die.
A new camp location has been added, which is available for player construction. A cheap and primitive shelter for the first stage of the game.
Added new effects when destroying crawlers – flying metal fragments and smoke. Shards can also cause damage if they hit someone.
Added a new structural mob – Tulhit-someone.
Added a new structural mob - Lumitulhit.
Added a new structural mob - Lumigalp.
Added a new structural mob - Koloed.
Added a new ground mob - Giant Mutolok.
Added a new item – Mutant Meat. Drops out of all types of mutants.
Added a new item – Biomass. It is necessary for crafting NPCs. It is made from mutant meat.
Added a new item – Disposable forerunner chamber. It is necessary for crafting NPCs. It can be found in the ruins of the forerunners.
Adding a display of the current zone in which the player is located on the global map.
Added a button to download construction schemes in the construction menu on the global map.
Other minor improvements and bug fixes have been made.
I remind you that saving the old version will not work in new version, but it is possible to install and play an older version. To do this, right-click on Scraplers in the Steam game library, go to the Properties tab of the BETA version and select the desired version.
