- Prisma Party Preview - 12/10 Dev Blog - 11 December 2025
Hello SUPERVIVERs! Today we’ve got a few followups from last patch, but we’re mainly focused on previewing our next prototype game mode - Prisma Party - slated to release in Patch 2.04. Let’s jump to it.2.03 Follow-upsSmall stuff here, but wanted to call out a couple changes. First, a change that missed our cutoff for 2.03 was adjusting RP gain for Arena/Tournament Ranked - specifically to address the edge cases where a team could win a match and still end up losing RP due to MMR differentials. We released a hotfix last week removing the variance in RP gains based on MMR - so you’ll now gain a flat amount every time. This will likely mean RP gains are faster overall, but we’d rather have that world than the frustration of losing RP after winning.Another change based on your feedback is for the “recommended item” system introduced in 2.03. We’ve seen players who prefer using the full sho…
- 2.03 PATCH NOTES - Tons of Hunter Buffs, Recommended Items, & more! - 3 December 2025
NOTE: THIS PATCH WILL NOT BE LIVE UNTIL DECEMBER 3, 2025 @ 8:00AM PTOpening ContextHello SUPERVIVERs! This patch, we’ve been mainly focusing on follow-ups from our change to level 4 abilities. Unsurprisingly, this led to some Hunters benefiting more than others (looking at you, you little fiery fox), so we wanted to do a comprehensive pass to make sure the whole roster is still able to compete. This includes a large set of changes for our favorite bullet-blaster, Hudson, who’s felt a little behind the curve for a while.Along with Hunter changes, we have some more item adjustments, including a new in-game shop feature and changes to Perks. Take a look!DominationWith the capture point speed being as fast as it is, it can be hard to think strategically about your rotations - it feels more like you’re managing the chaos of continuously trying to recapture points. Because of that, we slowed…
- Domination Follow-ups, Recommended Items, and a Hudson update! - 11/26 Dev Blog - 27 November 2025
Greetings SUPERVIVERs! Today we’re covering some additional tuning we’re looking at regarding Domination, as well as our upcoming Hudson gameplay update. We’ll also preview some major updates to the breach item shop, with the goal of reducing friction during your purchasing downtime. Let’s drop in! DominationLast patch we shipped our second prototype mode - Domination. We wanted this mode to be a bit more chaotic and free-flowing than the more structured style of tournament, and we’ve been eager to see what you’ve thought.One piece of feedback we received is that capture points feel like they change hands very quickly, leading to some situations where the game devolves into very short back and forth recaptures. We think it’s important that capture points are reasonably assailable so there’s no significant defender advantage, but we also think you shouldn’t need to bear hug the point con…

NOTE: THIS PATCH WILL NOT BE LIVE UNTIL NOVEMBER 19, 2025 @ 8:00AM PT (edited)Opening ContextGreetings SUPERVIVERs! Thanks for all your excellent feedback on Tournament mode so far - we’re making some item balance adjustments based on what you’ve shared, and also delivering on a common request to include ranked for this mode (and Arena too!) This patch introduces our second prototype mode - Domination! It’s a pretty different flavor compared to Tournament, with larger teams, open items, and a focus on defending/attacking specific points. We’re looking forward to seeing what you think!There’s plenty more to get to, so lets get started.New Mode: DominationDomination is our newest prototype mode - inspired by Capture and Hold gameplay. Good luck out there.Domination Mode is now available in the queue selectorFormat6v62 teamsAuto-respawnRulesThere are 3 Domination Points: A, B and CCapturin…
- Domination Mode Preview, Item & Map Updates - 11/13 Dev Blog - 13 November 2025
Greetings SUPERVIVERs! In between missing our Cybertiger Jin daggers, we’ve been hard at work on our second prototype mode, which we’re previewing here before it releases in patch 2.02. Along with that, today we’re covering some more details on our ongoing Item work, and additional map extensions coming to the Breach! Here we go!ITEM UPDATELast dev blog, we talked about some of our goals with the Armory update, specifically improving consistency across the board along with making item roles more clear and accessible. We released the first batch of these updates to grips and kicks in Tournament mode last patch.We’re still tweaking the balance of the new items (with data from our tournament preview along with feedback from the VIVE Council.) Once we get that feeling right, our plan is to bring them to BR as well. We’re also doing some art adjustments for these items, so they should better…
- 2.01 PATCH NOTES - Tournament Updates, TTK Changes, and Hunter Balance! - 5 November 2025
NOTE: THIS PATCH WILL NOT BE LIVE UNTIL NOVEMBER 5, 2025 @ 8:00AM PTOpening ContextHappy November, SUPERVIVERs! Our Season 2 launch is in the books and we’re excited to see all of you wreaking havoc out there on the Breach (and in Tournament mode!) We’re going to keep Tournament on for patch 2.01, with some changes based on your feedback. Also included in this patch, new kicks! We’re still in the testing phase for these, so we’re going to just be enabling them on tournament for now while we monitor how everything is landing. Onward!TournamentFormatThe response to our first Prototype Mode - Tournament, has been pretty good so far! One of the most common player requests we’re seeing in our surveys has been for a version of the mode with teams of 3, so we’re going to test that out this patch. The maps have been slightly expanded to account for the larger team sizes. We’ll be sending out a…
- Tournament Mode Takeaways and Item Changes - 10/29 Dev Blog - 30 October 2025
Happy Wednesday SUPERVIVERs! We’re coming straight out of our Season 2 launch with a dev blog for y’all. You’re gonna get some pretty fresh takes since this patch has only been live for a few days, but we want to hold fast to our commitment to keep you more in the loop and post more regular updates. Here we go!Tournament Mode TakeawaysAs we mentioned in our last Fireside Chat, we’re focusing on SUPERVIVE’s core combat magic in Season 2, both in battle royale and new modes. Our first of these prototype modes - Tournament - just went live in patch 2.00. Overall, the reception to tournament mode across our surveys has been pretty positive. We’ve seen players enjoying the focused, smaller scale fights, the ability to evolve their build through limited choices, and adjusting their strategy to face specific teams (especially ones you may have fought before). One question we’ve been asking our…
- SUPERVIVE SEASON 2 PATCH NOTES - 22 October 2025
NOTE: THIS PATCH WILL NOT BE LIVE UNTIL OCTOBER 22, 2025 @8:00AM PTGoalsWelcome to SUPERVIVE Season 2! This season, we’re sharpening our focus on elevating SUPERVIVE’s combat magic, making mastering SUPERVIVE more clear and rewarding, and keeping in closer collaboration with the community as we go. In this patch, we have a new Hunter - Nyx, a new prototype game mode focused around intense 2v2 duels, a new set of Armory items built to support underserved roles, and a ton of juicy balance and game updates. No more dilly-dallying, let’s dive in! New Prototype Game Mode: TournamentAs Jess talked about in our recent Fireside Chat, part of our Season 2 goal is to test additional game modes that lean into SUPERVIVE’s core competitive combat outside of the Battle Royale format. In patch 2.00, we’re releasing our first of these prototypes - Tournament Mode! In tournament mode, 6 teams are matche…
- SUPERVIVE Season 2 is Coming! - 14 October 2025
SUPERVIVE Season 2 is launching on October 22nd! In between all the bugfixes and patch notes, we wanted to write down some of our thoughts at the end of our first “real” season. Even though our official launch was in July, we’re approaching a full year of 24/7 live service for SUPERVIVE, which is a big milestone for our small team! We started developing SUPERVIVE with the ambitious goal of making a competitive PvP live service game you could play for thousands of hours, and to do so with a small, nimble group of developers who are invested in the player experience. A year has given us a lot of time to celebrate successes, make plenty of mistakes, and learn and reflect as we go. Going into Season 2, we’re looking to sharpen our focus on SUPERVIVE’s competitive core combat, making mastering SUPERVIVE more clear and rewarding, and keeping in closer collaboration with the community as we go…

NOTE: THIS PATCH WILL NOT BE LIVE UNTIL SEPTEMBER 17, 2025 @8:00AM PT Opening ContextAloha SUPERVIVERs! In this patch, we’re unlocking the Armory for all and making big changes to our metaprogression systems. Item star levels are being removed, along with Prisma, Capsules, and other related pieces. We’ve received a lot of player feedback on the Armory since our 1.0 launch. We began shipping changes almost immediately, and have continued across patches since then. But those changes have been focused on improvements that we could implement quickly, whereas this patch is a bigger overhaul - maintaining the positive elements of the Armory and removing the rest. Your feedback has been key in helping us get here, and we appreciate everyone who’s weighed in with their thoughts since launch! Along with the Armory changes, we have Kingpin buffs, Mercury nerfs, and a new feature - shop queueing,…

NOTE: THIS PATCH WILL NOT BE LIVE UNTIL SEPTEMBER 3, 2025 @8:00AM PTOpening ContextGreetings SUPERVIVERs! In this patch we have some changes to the Breach map to add more landmasses and unique combat spaces, the release of free Mastery skins for each hunter, and a major balance pass across our item pool! Read on, oh vivacious one.HuntersTetra We want Tetra to be a self-sufficient damage dealer, but her ability to siege and deal burst damage has been feeling high overall. We’re reducing the damage on her Rockwave + Quake Punch combo, and making the counterplay of destroying her walls a little more accessible to foes in the early game. Quake Punch (LMB)Rock Explosions Bonus Armor shred decreased from 50% >>> 30%Explosion damage decreased from 200 >>> 175Projectile damage decreased from 125 >>> 100Rockwave (Q)Wall health now increases from 500 >>> 777 based on Tetra's level instead of star…
- 8/28 Devblog - Map Updates & Item Balance - 28 August 2025
Hello SUPERVIVERs!Today we’re covering upcoming iterations to the Breach map, a brief follow-up on our resident dunkers, and some thoughts on item balance. Onto it!ContinentsFor our 1.0 launch, we made some big shifts to the Breach - spreading out landmasses, adding more abyss and wind tunnels, and creating Skysharks as a new form of long-distance traversal. Our goal with these changes was to give the map more variety - so fighting in different zones gives you unique combat situations to react to. Something we’ve been hearing more in the last few weeks is that several areas of the new map are still feeling pretty “samey”. We’re looking to make some adjustments to address this feedback.To make sure we’re improving the right areas, we connected with some of our veteran players, folks who have put hundreds of hours into SUPERVIVE. Their notes helped us narrow in on specific spots on the ma…

- 8/13 Dev Blog - Duplicate Protection, Dunking Changes, and Balance Previews - 14 August 2025
Greetings SUPERVIVERs! We’re now a few weeks into our launch with some patches under our belt. Today we’re looking to give an update on the Armory, as well as talk about some upcoming changes for dunking and gameplay balance. ArmoryAs mentioned in our Week 1 dev blog, we’re continuing to develop updates to the Armory to address feedback - specifically improving agency and reducing the reliance on randomness to progress your items. Some of these changes are bigger and require more work to implement, which is why we’re continuing to look for opportunities to improve the rough edges of the current system while we work on larger iterations. Some of those improvements are in a hotfix that’s live now. One topic that we’ve been seeing more among players who are further along in their collection is how bad it feels to get Prisma for a duplicate of an item you’ve already 3-starred. We’ve changed…
