POSTAL Dude & Champ Youtooz figurine available for pre-order!
POSTAL Dude & Champ Youtooz
The wait is over and you can finally pre-order the brand new POSTAL Dude & Champ Youtooz figurines today. You don’t want to miss out though, this offer will only be available up until April 25th, so make sure you get one now to avoid disappointment!
The beta is now live and is called ‘PublcBeta’, you can find it by right clicking POSTAL 4 in your library and selecting properties>Betas>Beta Participation>PublicBeta
It’s been a long time since the last update, and that’s because we’ve had some issues implementing Co-Op, as well as a new save system that better handles resetting progress on death, providing more of a challenge. We’ve also been doing a lot of under the hood stuff with NPC AI.
We've decided to throw open the gates and allow you guys to join a build that we’ll keep updated frequently for anyone that’s interested in being on the cutting edge. Updates won’t be daily, but they’ll be pretty frequent. There is no obligation to report bugs and offer feedback, but it will massively help us out if you do!
Head over to the Beta forums HERE if you’d like to be involved in the conversation, and to learn a bit about what we know needs doing, what is broken or could use help with testing.
Do note that this beta branch may be unstable, contain crashes, soft locks and performance regressions, and any given update to it could introduce a new issue. We’re rebuilding a few systems in the game, and this can cause some things to get worse before they get better as we roll them out.
With all that said, Co-Op is fully functional and playable from start to end! We still have a lot of bugs to squash, things to correctly replicate, and host performance improvements to make, but you can play the game from start to finish with up to 4 players - and it’s centrally good enough to goof around in and GO POSTAL!
The new save system is mostly functional, but we suspect with a much wider testing audience we’ll find some oddities with it, except possible softlocks, or issues with NPCs not respawning when they should after returning to a check point.
Thanks as always for your support, and our apologies for it taking this long to get here!

The Jank with friends Beta! Update
===Added===
Co-Op! (WIP) Up to 4 people can now play the entire campain from beginning to end! Some side content current does not work, see the beta forums for more information
Improved save system! (WIP) During linear missions, when the player dies and is sent back to a checkpoint, all progress gets reverted (NPCs, pickups, health, weapons etc). In the future we plan to take this further with open world areas as well.
General NPC sound improvements! Examples: NPCs that get down to play guitar will now play music. NPCs now say fuck you when they give the bird. NPCs that wave will say Hi. NPCs will trash talk when they do a thumbs down. NPCs will now make sounds when tapping themselves looking for their keys, laugh, fart and have a chance to say that is gross and more! Better NPC pathfinding in some levels (WIP) NPCs will be less likely to wonder off into odd areas unless they are panicked and trying to escape danger. Option to set a preference for control icons and disable the automatic icon switching. This is useful for anyone that uses a keyboard / controller combo (for example, Steam deck with the track pad for mouse aim).
Kommander Karl Originals weapon cosmetics to Skinporium! Improved the visuals of the machine itself as well
Switching between Steam beta branches from Main Menu! Try New Features by switching to a different beta branch of the game, or switch to an older version of the game if so desired! For example, when Steam Workshop is ready for testing, we’ll probably have a separate branch for it here. For now in this current beta, it’s mostly handy for rolling back to older versions.
Enhanced Game! (WIP) Various ways to change how the game plays, more will be added in the future
Most dogs won't attack the player
Player is immune to fire damage and cannot be set on fire
Player gets a double jump
Player receives extra bonus items at the start of every day

Development Update
Hello POSTAL Dude’s and Dudettes!
It’s been a hot minute since the last game update, so we wanted to take the time to let you guys know what to expect over the next few months.
First we’d like to apologize for the slow cadence of updates. To make up for this and lesson the annoyance in the future, we’ve decided to take advantage of Valve's new API features by making it easy to access our internal beta branches!
So while our official public updates will still be a good few months apart, anyone that’s interested to see how the game is coming along can join the cutting edge beta branch, right from the main menu. We hope to have this feature ready for early next year, if not before, and after that we plan to update the beta branch every week or so.
So, what’s currently in our internal builds, which you guys will be able to access via the beta branches soon, and will make a public release in the new year?
Co-Op!
It’s been a long time coming, but we are finally on the home stretch with 4 player co-op support. It is now possible to finish the game from start to finish, so we are now testing for replication issues and also working on improving performance for the host PC. It really is a lot of fun and we can’t wait for you guys to be able to cause chaos in the streets of Edensin together.
For those of you who have no interest in playing with other people, we still have things in store for you!
Better checkpointing system for single player!
We’ve long been rightfully criticized for not implementing more meaningful consequences for dying while on errand missions, and we’ve worked to correct that. Now, when the player dies and gets sent back to a checkpoint, the game's state will be reverted to what it was when they went through that checkpoint (Health, enemy spawns, weapon and ammo count, etc). This means there are now actual consequences to dying and any progress the player had made with clearing out enemies or completing objectives will be reset. Don’t worry though, we will make sure there are enough checkpoints to mean you won’t lose so much progress that it’s frustrating. This feature is pretty much done and undergoing testing right now.
Better AI!
We’re putting more effort into NPC AI, and how NPCs interact with each other and the world around them. NPCs have more situational awareness, meaning they will be less likely to do things like stop in doorways to have conversations, blocking the path for other NPCs. We’re also working to improve their general pathing, meaning they won’t wander up into areas you’d not really expect people to be loitering like in the middle of a grassy area when there are paths around (unless they are panicked), and they also are less likely to hug the side of the road and walk in a konga line. Work has been done to keep NPCs spread out across the map better, rather than bunching up into a few areas.
Finally, we’re improving their interactions with the world. More NPCs are now on schedules and will go around doing their jobs or living their lives. We’ve added a lot more animations and boltons too these events too. NPCs that are disturbed from their schedules will rejoin them, and also these schedules are often randomized so each visit to the area will give different results.
We’re working to make sure NPCs move into their interest animations more smoothly, and are polishing up other things such as making sure they look better when seated.
We’re about 30% done with these AI tasks but making quick progress now we’ve updated the code to allow more flexibility.
Tons of sound additions and improvements!
Far too many to list, but a lot of work has been done to improve the overall soundscape in the game, from the open world areas to errands.
Many bug fixes!
And probably a good few introduced too!
Thank you for your continuous support,
Running With Scissors Team

POSTAL 4: No Regerts - "Boosted Karts & Boosted Frames" Update [1.4.0]
Hello!
Hello POSTAL community!
It’s update time again! A few new features and improvements to hold you over until we get the Co-Op implemented. We know many are getting frustrated at the long wait for co-op, we underestimated the task at hand - but be assured it’s still coming.
We are happy to finally bring you AMD Super Resolution 2 (FSR 2.2) and Nvidia Super Resolution and Frame generation (DLSS 3.7). (No FSR 3.0 frame gen for now, that may come in a future update.)
As well as gaining frames in this update, you’ll also be able to gain some (in game) cash! We have shamelessly recycled some existing gameplay mechanics, so The Dude has a few side hustles he can embark on. Catch more animals! Get more petition signatures! Tag more billboards! We have also added a new racing time trial - this time using the Kart!
With this newly boosted economy, we needed to introduce more ways to waste money so… Introducing the Skinporium! A one stop shop for all your Weapon cosmetic needs.
Another new gameplay feature that no one asked for but we added it anyway - a Turret!
Full change log with more details can be seen below. Much respect to you all, and thanks for your continued support!
The Running With Scissors team
FSR and DLSS Support! Mid-Game titles on the Lifehacker Phone Page! Full Stats Screen! Completing the game will earn you a rank, you can also unlock various badges after fulfilling certain requirements

Make all deliveries to the previous station at the north side of town or bring them to the brand new satellite office on the south side, just outside of Cock Asian!
Note: Animal Catcher errand must first be completed, if you begin a New Game on Tuesday forward, it will not activate. Completing the main errand in a Pacifist way will also not activate the Animal Catcher Extension on Tuesday.

Convince people to sign yet another petition for a good cause! That cause being money which goes into your pocket! Go for the hard sell!

POSTAL 4: No Regerts - Janitor's Maintenance Update [1.3.2]
Hey there legends! And Happy birthday 21st birthday to POSTAL 2!
We are currently still beavering away at a nice big update for you guys for P4, but in the meantime we have this smaller update for you, which addresses the issues you guys have reported across Steam Forums, and our social media (Thank you!) - plus some animation improvements.
While we’re here, we’ll update you a bit on what’s going on with P4 in general. Co-op ended up being a much bigger endeavor and challenge than we expected, but it’s still very much being worked on and we hope have it ready for at least an open beta this summer.
We are in the process of implementing and testing DLSS and FDR upscaling and frame generation, and hope to have that ready for the next update.
We realize there has been some performance regressions since we updated the gore system last update, and are very much working to sort that out.
We are also working to improve how saving and checkpointing is handled currently for a future update.
There is more, but we just wanted to comment on things that are happening sooner than later.
Thanks, as always, for your patience and support!

POSTAL 4: No Regerts - "The Update Formerly Known as Nameless" [1.3.0]
Hello POSTAL Dudes and Does!
Yeah, we drew a blank on making some kinda joke reference name for this update, so just made a joke out of that instead. A bad joke is better than no joke… Right? Unlike most of our previous updates, there is no major standout new feature this time, just lots of smaller improvements to elevate the overall experience based on feedback. In the spirit of our half-assed update title, we’ll half ass this blurb too - and skip right to the patch notes!
(Note, DLSS and FSR 2.0 didn’t quite make this update, but we’re currently testing it, and it will be included in the next update)
Thanks for your continued support and not giving up on us! (and if you have given up on us, well, thanks for your past support!)

POSTAL 4: No Regerts - "Filthy Gorgeous" Update [1.2.0]
Attention POSTAL fans and frenemies!
This update is less about throwing more features into the game and more about improving presentation and polish.
Our development team has been hard at work (and will keep at it) programming our NPCs to take in their surroundings and interact with each other in more complex and, dare we say, more interesting ways.
We've given particle effects a long-awaited makeover. For all the pyromaniacs out there, setting things ablaze and extinguishing them with your personal... ahem, 'firehose'... is now more visually gratifying than ever. And for those who love a good kaboom, you'll find explosions much more rewarding with the revamped effects. As for the chaos-causing explodable vehicles, we've tweaked them for maximum boom!
Turning to the world of POSTAL 4, we've rolled up our sleeves and reworked various environments to enhance your gameplay experience. The notorious Zag has received particular attention and is now bursting with new details and easter eggs for you to discover. We've also ironed out more kinks with physics objects, improving how they behave and interact following their introduction from the last update.
We haven't forgotten about the heat of battle, either. You'll notice smoother performance during intense gunfights, especially when the screen is crowded with NPCs going POSTAL.
And for all you controller warriors, we're taking PC controller support up a notch, with a batch of fixes already in place and more refinements on the way.
Stay tuned for more updates!
The Running With Scissors team.
AI Improvements! We are continuing the work on AI, this update introduces some improvements and new additions:

If you hit an NPC, they may start recording you and talk trash, there’s also a chance they will hit you

If an NPC decides to stand up for the victim, he will scold and may kick you
