Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
Hey, all! I've got a few updates for you.
Games For Waves
First, the WDC's World Ocean Day Steam Sale just hit and runs for a week from today. There are a lot of games, including Nova Drift, running deep sales, and a % of the profits from each title goes to whale and dolphin conservation!
You can view the Steam Sale here:

Utopia Must Fall ESCALATION Update
Nova Drift's cousin-in-law Utopia Must Fall (originally designed by ND's musician Miles Tilmann) just got its biggest update ever, titled the Escalation Update. They just added a new meta-progression, new enemies & bosses, and a lot of other new's that we don't need to get into here. It's also in a bundle with ND, so check it out?
Nova Drift on consoles
We're working on it! Really, it's going well. We have dev kits and everything. We're hoping this launches around Q4 this year, around the time our first DLC comes out.
Nova Drift: Weapon Mutations DLC
If you haven't heard, Nova Drift's first DLC is underway, and it's coming along very well! Currently there is at least a rough-draft of an alternate version of each Nova Drift weapon and about half of them are in an alpha state. Some of them are crazier than anything we did in vanilla Nova Drift, and a few are based on concepts you may have seen shared on the blog or Discord as early as 7 years ago. When the time comes to start beta testing the update, I'll make some noise.
That's all for now. Have fun, Drifters
