• 2025 Update! - 17 October 2025

  The biggest changes are exclusive to the mobile version (since for the longest time, it was a few patches behind the PC port,) but there are some nice QoL updates to the PC version as well: >Various bug fixes and UI updates, mainly relating to nuzlocke challenges and Deth's Manor. >Added an autosave feature that can be toggled in the file select menu. >Text no longer overflows and snaps to the next line while talking to NPCs. >Monsters' HP bars now show if that species has been caught before, and if you currently have one in your storage. >Added additional dialogue to some cutscenes to make it clearer what you're supposed to do in certain parts of the game. >It no longer takes 2 centuries for your library to load. >Added text for when shinies spawn

• The big 2023 patch! - 24 July 2023

  > The dash has been completely reworked - the camera no longer snaps to xander's position. Instead, the dashing is smooth and I-frames were added to the start of the dash animation to compensate for the fact that it's not instant anymore. > The difficulty curve has been rebalanced - the beginning of the game no longer utterly destroys you. > A mini map has been added to the pause screen. > FPS fixes to certain windows OSs. > Hitboxes for literally every attack in the game have been reworked to actually make sense. > Auracapture beams home in on enemies like they will in myth caller. > Minor glitches in relation to the catch arena have been fixed. > The fishing minigame has been made less infuriating. > Dialogue text changes to the fishing minigame and the mech lab to make it clearer what you're supposed to do in those areas. > Sadomas has been un-nerfed to be as strong as it was in 2019.

• Ver. 2.9 - 8 September 2021

• Ver. 2.8 - 6 August 2021

  Ver.2.8 adds a fix to the Setinos boss fight. Before, Setinos wouldn't get the boost from the arena's shiny booster, but now he works as intended

• Ver. 2.7 - 29 July 2021

  Enemies now no longer appear as grillbits for the first frame they spawn. Also possible linux fix- check discord for details

• Easy Mode added! - 3 April 2020

  There's no getting around it- Xander is one of the most hardcore games in the monster-catching genre. Some of the endbosses can kill you in literally 4 seconds. For action game fans, this is pretty normal, but if you're coming into this game from Pokémon, I can see how this would be a weeeee bit of a culture shock. This is a bit of a problem because Xander has an intricate, funny storyline that non-masochists might still want to enjoy. So to alleviate this problem- there is now an easy mode you can select when starting a new game.
