Developer 11 Bit Studios just released a free major content update for its acclaimed PS5 adventure game, The Alters. Much of the new content and improvements are “inspired” by requests from the game’s community.
What is The Alters new free content update?
Tons of new content and improvements are coming to The Alters thanks to this free major content update. This includes base customization, suit skins, and photo mode. It also introduces the Gamer’s Den, a new base module where the Jans can have some fun, including the new playable Card Game. There is also a new noir-themed side story attached to the Gamer’s Den.
Added due to feedback, a new Relax Mode and save system have been added to The Alters. Relax Mode is a difficulty option that allows players to play through the story without stressing about the survival and management aspects of the game. The save system has been simplified, as it will automatically save when exiting the game and during important moments in the story.
