- Update 0.2.7.3 - 10 September 2026
Hi everyone,I have another update regarding the release of the game.Steam has confirmed that Unknown Operations: The Habitus will temporarily not be available for purchase in Germany. This resolves the issue that was delaying the approval process due to the planned use of historical Nazi symbols in future versions of the game.For all other countries, the release can continue as normal.Later, once I prepare a version adjusted for the German market without the restricted symbols, Steam will help me set up its release in Germany and remove the current restriction.For now, the only thing left is to complete the approval process for the current build.Thank you all for your patience, support, and understanding. I’ll keep you updated as soon as I have more news.GameplayAdded blur to the front part of the weapon while aiming.Fixed an issue with taking items from the inventory when more than one…

These changes should make the weapons feel more detailed and realistic.I am also gradually improving the individual inventory elements and its overall layout to make it clearer and more comfortable to use.In terms of optimization, I have added an option to manually enable hardware ray tracing for Lumen in the v…
