While we're making preparations for the Open Beta that's coming this summer, our team decided to post a short update to get you in the loop.


With our approach leaning more toward militaristic realism, we're determined to introduce more real-life guns in the Open Beta.

Working on weapon animations ▲


Merc starter kits will include a distress flare. Weaker than regular flares purchased from traders, it will give a Merc the chance of survival against Alien Monsters in the early stages of a mission. ▼


We've reworked the Alien Monsters' UI and added a reticle for the Spit ability. ▲




The game is being upgraded to Unreal Engine 5.4.1 to noticeably boost performance & FPS rate.

Last but not least, Level Zero: Extraction was featured in the printed PC Gamer magazine. It seemed like a cool thing to share.

Stay tuned for future announcements regarding the Open Beta.

Our team at Doghowl shot the first-ever Level Zero: Extraction Developer Podcast. Daniel (Nuclearjke, Executive Producer), George (Antishyr, Community Manager), and Alex (osallivan, Art Director) sat down to chat about our plans for the upcoming Open Beta in Summer, discuss the amazing feedback players have provided us with, and reflect on the Closed Beta we held back in March of this year. It's a lengthy watch (or rather, listen)—around 50 minutes—so if you're down for a deep dive into what we're working on, you might want to check it out.
