Trepang2 is our bloodstained love letter to first-person-shooters from the early 2000s. This journey features the carnage fuelled, bullet-ridden world of mayhem that you'd expect - but horrific realities also exist. The malevolent Silicon Valley HORIZON corp is experimenting with truly inconceivable abominations that you must uncover. It is your duty to contend with these other worldly, extraterrestrial-like foes and destroy them.
HORIZON will be waiting. They know you're free. They know what to throw at you. They think you can be beaten. Show them otherwise.
This is Trepang2. We hope you have a blast.
An abomination..

The Superior Subject
Hi friends! It's time for another crazy video showcasing our genetically modified super soldier, 106!
Thank you to @wkdisgood for the amazing over the top, badass, pure chaotic video! Our community makes such fantastic videos, we really appreciate the passion.
Destruction
If the environment had feelings, then we can only imagine 106's surroundings looking around in despair as he enters their vicinity. Anything in his proximity gets obliterated and subsequently turned to dust.
Syndiacte soliders quiver when 106 pull out the SPAS-12; every object in sight does too.
Here are some GIFs illustrating the destruction in Trepang2...
Trepang 2 Launches June 21st! Wishlist if you have a big gamer brain.
We are less than a month out from release! Subject #106 will be tasked with breaking the cycle on June 21st. The malign Horizon institute is one of Silicon Valley’s revered pioneers in technology and manufacturing. But there’s a darkness to them; an unadulterated ambition to control and superseded their foes, predicated on horrific truths that you need to uncover.
Adorn your desktop walls with some glorious new Trepang2 wallpapers!
#106
Subject 106 is at the epicentre of a shoot-out, as per usual.

The Patriarch
Far from civilization is an isolationist society of Cultists, a well armed fanatical group that's currently led by a man known only as The Patriarch. Contrary to most intel, the Patriarch has risen to leadership not by being the most fanatical leader, but by being the most level-headed member of the Cultists.

Less than a month to go! Break the cycle.
Trepang 2 | Date Reveal Trailer & New Key Art!
Subject 106 breaks free from his chains to unleash mayhem — June 21st on Steam! It's time to break the cycle.
Trepang2 features high-octane, first-person gun-fu gunplay and puts players in the shoes of a newly enhanced super soldier on a mission of death, destruction, and revenge.
Check your corners and blast into a brand-new story trailer below:
Broken out from a government black site by unknown allies and removed of their memories, they’ll be hunted by their captives and an even more otherworldly foe, and will have to arm themselves with an arsenal of devastating weapons and learn how to handle their newfound superhuman abilities to survive the onslaught, all the while unravelling a deadly conspiracy.

Brutal Melee Combat: Square up to your foes in close quarters melee combat and go full throttle in rapid fire gunfights. Punch, kick, slide and string together combos to reduce your enemies to dust.
New Key Art
Trepang2’s new key art is finalised! We wanted to illustrate Horizon frantically looking for an escape, aware of Subject 106’s intimidating presence in the shadows. The soldiers are on alert; they know the elite, genetically modified 106 is ready to pounce. Our protagonist disables his cloak, preparing to shift from covert surveillance to overt aggression.
The horror elements of Trepang2 play a significant part in our vision for the art. Yes, this game is about diabolic carnage and giblets hitting the walls — but terrifying, horrific realities also exist. We want to evoke fear in the aesthetic.
Horizon know what they're up against, 106 is a by-product of their heinous endeavours. The formidable, unstoppable force takes on an immovable object. Chaos will ensue. Death, destruction and diabolic scenes await.
We’d love to address the imperious creature in the background and explain what on earth it is. But we think it’s best we leave that to you, Subject 106.
Screenshots to keep the violence at bay, for now.

Trepang2 is progressing well! We’re currently looking at Key Art ideas and sketches – and producing some fancy trailers to prepare ourselves for the release date announcement!
Thank you for sticking with us and continuing to share your diabolical scenes from your demo play-throughs.
We released a fun community made trailer this week, focusing on decimation at the hands of grenade launcher popping chaos! The Spas12 has a nice little spotlight, too. Remember, chaps: when in doubt, pull out the Spas12.
A shootout, right, is a shootout! https://twitter.com/TrepangStudios/status/1633890586569654286?s=20
Spring is fast approaching, and so is that sweet, sweet Treapang2 news. Not long now.
A considerable amount of time has passed since we last reached out to give you folks an update on Trepang2!
Following our delay last year, we’ve been knuckling down to ensure we meet our release window. We’re thrilled to confirm we will absolutely be releasing in 2023 – barring an unmitigated disaster (trepang3 anyone? lol) – and we have a date internally, which we’re working towards.
Sorry for the massive disappointment if you were expecting something more specific. #Soon
The feedback from the demo has been incredibly valuable, and we love the madness the community brings to our Discord. You’re all going to possess ample skill to inhabit Subject #106 – and wreak devastating havoc along the way.
There’s lots of cool stuff in the pipeline. Spring is looking exciting for Trepang2 news! So keep an eye out.
COMPLEX SIDE MISSION
Following your feedback, we’ve made a litany of changes to improve the experience. You can even hack from anywhere, and don’t need to use the computer.
See our dev video showing this off, whilst we have a grand old time and continue to invoke Jesus throughout.
COMMUNITY CONTENT
We’ve pushed a montage live, showcasing some brutal clips from you all. You’re cracked, well done. Please continue to showcase the incredible scenes!
We’re currently working on some new art and crazy trailers, we’ll keep you posted as soon as we’re ready to share.
Thanks for the support, as always.
We’ll see you soon, Chaps.

Trepang2 Release Delay
♥ THANK YOU FOR PLAYING OUR GAME ♥
From the enthusiasts to the most analytical critics, each one of you has made a difference on our game, and how it is created. Since the demo released, reception has been fantastic and you all give us the motivation to deliver a sick game, with a decently sized storyline, with great replay value and customization. So far, we're close but the four of us just need a little bit more time. Right now we have:
5 Campaign Missions
6 Side Missions
8 Weapons
Collectables
Player Customization (Clothes & Weapons)
Planning For An Alternate Ending
Furthermore, on the topic of replay value, we've been working on our own New Game+, where you can customize your game to your liking!
NPC Creator
NPC Health
NPC Speed
NPC Reaction Time
NPC Ammo Drop Amount
NPC Drop Grenades on Killed
And More!
Oh, and for NG+ we also have an optional aim down sights lmao
There will be more information to come soon, we apologize for the delay, but we promise it will be worth it. Thank you all for playing our game and maintaining your interest.
Sorry to yell, but our excitement for Trepang2 is as high as everyone else's.
While we updated our demo after almost 3 years (Dec 2019, June 2022), we've also been hard at work for the full game, trying to ensure that what we show is as sick as we would want it to be. With the demo update, and more eyes on the rad project we're working on, we've been taking a lot of notes from everyone's feedback and input from the new demo. For now, we have a small update to the demo which should help with some players.
Safehouse Optimization
Fixed some disgusting FPS drops in the Safehouse. Oopsies 🥴
Movement Key Binds & Controller Support
One big piece of feedback we heard was that we didn't have our movement keys rebindable, and we didn't natively have controller support. Now we do!
We have heard a lot of extremely helpful feedback from everybody, and we are still working on addressing a lot of them. For right now though, we hope some of you find these small fixes helpful.
Your support is immense and we are eternally grateful.
Our new demo launches with Steam Next Fest and we'd like to invite you to hang out and participate in our developer stream!
Perhaps you missed the first stream, or you wanted to get more stuff shown, we will be doing a second stream on June 17th, 2022, 1:00 PM PST.
We will be streaming on Steam but if you would like to interact directly with us elsewhere, we will also be directly streaming to our Discord as well, taking requests, showing cool stuff with everyone and overall have a good time.
The support you homies give us fuels the whole team.
