- NEIGHBORS: Suburban Warfare вышла из раннего доступа - соседи теперь воюют на PS5, Xbox Series и ПК - 30 September 2026
Командная PvP-игра NEIGHBORS: Suburban Warfare от Invisible Walls вышла из раннего доступа и теперь доступна на PlayStation 5, Xbox Series и ПК через Steam. Проект провёл в раннем доступе около полутора лет: его первоначальная версия появилась на ПК 17 апреля 2025 года. Игра превращает обычные соседские конфликты в масштабные разрушительные разборки. Команды защищают собственные дома и одновременно пытаются уничтожить имущество соперников, используя практически всё, что окажется под рукой. В ход идут сковородки, рогатки, клюшки для гольфа и даже помидоры, а специальные гаджеты позволяют устроить соседям ещё более неприятные сюрпризы. У каждого персонажа есть собственные способности и стиль игры. В зависимости от выбранного соседа команда может строить разные тактики, а укрепление дома становится не менее важной задачей, чем атака. Игрокам предстоит заколачивать окна, устанавливать ловуш…

- F2P Development status & 1.0 Features - 6 August 2026
Development updateHi all fellow Neighbors! It has been a good while since we did any official updates on what we have been up to with the game! During the past year, a significant part of our team has been busy working on major updates for Deep Rock Galactic and First Class Trouble. However, since October 2025, a group of dedicated people has been working non-stop on Neighbors, primarily porting the game to Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 as well as preparing the game with free-to-play features. Porting Neighbors has proven to be no easy feat and to be completely transparent, this is a big cost and risk for us, as a company. We are doing this because we want to give you a good product and to get it out to a greater audience.What’s new in 1.0We have not only been porting the game to console but also made new content to the game that we can’t wait to show you! New Character: Gwen"She’s…

- PATCH 3.9 - Balancing & Christmas - 11 December 2025
Dear Neighbors, While we are waiting for the Robots to invade Heartsville early next year, we have decided to treat you with a balance pass, shorter matches and decoration for Christmas instead.As you may know we are moving Neighbors into a more casual direction. This also goes for Destruction, but this time we have not touched the game mode, but rather done some initiatives on making it more fair to fight between each Neighbor and we have brought down the match length of each session.Shorter MatchesWe want fun, short and quick matches so you go in and have more fun regardless of when you join the game. And if you lose, well you just play again. So we have decided to bring down the match length by decreasing the health of fences, windows and house essentials and decreased the amount of House Essentials to destroy from 4->3. As always you can chose whatever you like from the custom setti…

- The Future of Neighbors - 24 October 2025
IntroductionHello all citizens of Heartsville and everyone following Neighbors! I think it is a about time we talk about the state of Neighbors currently, but more importantly the future of Neighbors! We’ve received many questions about the direction of the game, and I completely understand why. Some of the decisions we’ve made might have seemed confusing or counterintuitive from the outside, and we owe you an honest explanation of what led to them - and what they mean for the future.To be frank, after the launch of Neighbors, we quickly found ourselves in a tough financial situation. The sales simply weren’t enough to keep the full team working on the game, and as the person ultimately responsible for everyone here at Invisible Walls, my first priority had to be making sure that my colleagues still had jobs to come back to. That meant we had to find other ways to fund the studio’s cont…

- A little Prophunt Game Mode teaser, new Neighbor & more! - 4 September 2025
G'day Neighbors! If you haven't already heard from Discord announcement, the next content update will feature a new gamemode called Prophunt! For those unaware, Prophunt consists of two teams; the props and the hunters. Props must disguise as objects within the world in order to avoid being captured by the hunters. Hunters are blindfolded during the beginning of a round, giving props ample time to find the perfect hiding spot - but beware! If you stand still too long as a prop, you will begin to whistle, alerting the hunters of your presence. Since we're making Prophunt à la Neighbors, there's a couple of additional twists. First of all, each team still gets to pick their house. Every house in Neighbors fully supports Prophunt, giving you a lot of variety in the types of environments you can play in and the types of props you can disguise as. You also still get to play as your Neighbor…

Fury rush now affects ranged boxing jab.Fixed a crash which occurs when dropping items with ammo in the shop (when you buy with full inventory).Stay tuned for more soon! Kind Regards The Invisible Walls team
- Patch 2.1: A good bunch of mixed stuff - 5 August 2025
Greeting's Neighbors!We know it’s been a little quiet lately — most of the team took a short summer break to rest up and recharge.However, while most of us were out catching some sun and touching some grass, our very own Erik (whose voice you are familiar with, since he is the announcer in the game) basically held down the fort on his own. Working closely with a lot you over on our discord, (big thanks - you know who you are) he kept on squeezing bugs and doing a ton of other small fixes over the last couple of weeks. While this patch does not contain any big new features, cumulated, it still throws a fair punch. The update focuses on quality-of-life fixes, balance adjustments, and gameplay polish as well as several long-requested tweaks from the community. Before we jump into the changes we have to thank Erik and the testers and send him off for a well-deserved break of his own. Consid…
