Z-STOP Patch Notes — September 26, 2022
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
This update has been in the works for a very long time. Additional characters have been added. These characters can be unlocked by reaching levels, beating bosses, and by other means. These characters bring new play styles and a variety of starting kits to the game. In addition certain characters have bonuses such as faster speed, npc store discount, chance of healing from melee kills and many more.
Characters will provide goals for players to reach which will often give them advantages in the early game. 
Changes and additions:
Npc store item prices will now appear when you are within range of said item.
Player dark vision has been increased.
Gladiator and Eclipse mode now have unique base characters(these are just skins, they have no bonuses and are not playable in the Survival.)
Levers have had an art overhaul.
Bug fixes:
At the moment there are few to no known bugs
Things to come:
This update involved a lot of overhauling systems and art work. It took us about a month to complete. While there likely won't be any big core changing updates similar in scale to characters or npc stores any time soon. We're going to see how people react to this update and look to continue to improve gameplay and player experience. However there are still things to come. As always no spoilers, yet we dare say you can expect something spooky coming your way.
