Halloween in Alaska



How’s it going, SPOOKvivors?

This Halloween season, something truly mysterious haunts the wintry wilds of Alaska in The Wild Eight.

Its intentions are unknown, as is its origin. But there’s one thing we know for sure - the storm this time of year feels colder than ever before.

Be careful when you set up a camp fire, though - someone might join you to get warm by the flames..

0.7.34 – Hotfix

Hi!

Here is small hotfix: players will no longer hit each other on big distances.

We're working on fixing multiplayer saves and other bugs. Updates are coming soon!

0.7.29 – Hotfix

Hi!

Here is what we've fixed in the latest update:

- Fixed a bug where Tamed Deer with Sledge equipped stopped moving and did not react to player’s actions
- Fixed a bug where taming a Wolf would make an already tamed Deer’s AI not function properly
- Fixed a bug where on rare occasions using a Transit system killed the Player upon arrival
- Fixed initialization bugs of tamed animals, which caused them to not load properly
- Fixed a bug where the game didn’t save active window settings after changing the resolution or output mode

Thanks for all your feedback!
