MISERY
Platypus Entertainment · Ytopia
MISERY is a 1–10 player co-op survival game set in a nuclear disaster zone. Here, every day is a struggle: search radioactive ruins for resources, build your bunker, craft weapons, and explore a weird, procedurally-generated world with your friends. Beware of anomalies, monsters, and armed bandits.
Year 2
Oct 23, 2026 - Nov 12, 2026
MISERY’s first-anniversary update reworked gunplay and audio while expanding the Village. It also added new creatures, equipment and controls for hosts running multiplayer sessions.
- Weapons: The update reworked recoil, charging and reload animations, replaced weapon models and added the AK-74SU.
- Village and creatures: More than a dozen locations expanded the Village biome. Stray Dogs and Wendigo added threats, and the update improved enemy and player animations.
- Equipment and sound: Additional loot and equipment expanded scavenging. Firearms received new layered sounds.
- Hosting: New anti-griefing options let hosts restrict who can build, pick up and destroy structures.
Year 1
Oct 23, 2025 - Oct 23, 2026
MISERY launched on Steam on October 23, 2025. Its first year added single-player mode and the Factory biome, while a September maintenance pass improved saving and changed the survival economy.
- Launch and play options: The Steam release introduced the survival game to a wider audience. Single-player mode later gave players a way to explore without joining a group.
- Factory: The August 2026 update opened a new biome for exploration and scavenging.
- Saving and inventory: The September 29 patch rebuilt saving and loading, fixed inventory interactions and improved quick-move and loot-all behavior on bodies and mannequins.
- Economy and controls: Food and medicine became cheaper, loot sale values rose, and fixes addressed stuck actions, ladders and options that failed to save.
