- Problems with accessing game servers in the Russian Federation - 24 October 2025
Recently, there have been issues with accessing the game's servers from within the Russian Federation. I am not restricting access for anyone myself. Unfortunately, Roskomnadzor (the Russian state media regulator) blocks many services indiscriminately, for example, Cloudflare and OVH. Drunken Wrestlers 2 uses Cloudflare and OVH servers, so if you are in the Russian Federation and are considering purchasing the game, please be aware that additional measures may be required to be able to play online. - Oleg
- Change of plans - 7 February 2025
I've decided to make Drunken Wrestlers 2 a paid game. I do not take this decision lightly. In fact, this is the hardest decision I've had to make in my entire life. However, I see no other way forward. Here are the three main factors that have contributed to this decision: 1. Drunken Wrestlers 2 has suffered the same fate as Spacewar Recently, pirates started abusing Drunken Wrestlers 2 to emulate online features in pirated games, similar to how Spacewar is used: https://youtu.be/Xg7_dD3-QTc (Skip to 7:44 for the relevant part) Drunken Wrestlers 2 is free and utilizes pretty much every online feature available on Steam, so it's perfect for online feature emulation in pirated Steam games. I would probably be unaware of this if the Steam Workshop wasn't being flooded with items intended for other games. Hundreds of files are uploaded to the Drunken Wrestlers 2 workshop every day, and at t…

- Online servers are back! - 1 June 2023
I am pleased to announce that servers have been paid for and are back online! - Oleg
- Online servers are going to be shut down on December 7th - 2 December 2022
Over the last few months my financial situation has worsened significantly. 1 USD is equal to 50-60 RUB now, while it used to be 70-80. So, for every US dollar, I now get 25% less Russian rubles. On top of that, foreign banks now charge enormous fees for every transaction going into Russia. This month alone they charged about $250 in fees, which is more than half the cost of the servers per month. For 2 months in a row I had to borrow money to pay my rent while I was prioritizing the servers, but I can't continue like this any longer. I've decided to move out and leave Russia while the borders are still open. This will cost me a lot, and I won't be able to pay for the servers this month. Servers will continue to operate until December 7th. After that, they will be shut down and will be back up if/when I'll have enough money to pay for them. - Oleg UPD (07.12.2022) Servers have been shut…

- I ̶a̶m̶ was unable to pay for the servers this month. - 3 June 2021
EDIT: We've raised over $500, and I am now able to pay for the servers! Thank you to everyone who contributed! If any of the contributors would like a shout out or some in-game reward feel free to DM me on Discord or by email --- Last month, the game had a huge and sudden spike in traction. Player count on Android at some point reached 100,000 active players per day. This would be great news if not one problem: because of a spike in bandwidth usage, server costs suddenly went up as well. For the month of May, I have to pay $890.43 for the servers. If I don't pay until 7th of June, the game will get limited to 20 concurrent players. I don't have so much money at the moment and am unable to pay. Revenue from last month will only arrive at the end of June. Right now I could pay ~$400 without the risk of starving or losing the roof over my head. But ~$500 more would remain to be paid. If yo…
